    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2025?***

    I hardly ever drink alcohol anymore but the family had some world class central California wines and a few glasses mixed with a food coma and I had a spontaneous couch nap in front of the Dal v KC game. Home now for a pipe before bed proper.

    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2025?***

    I hope you all have a joyful thanksgiving or whatever you do tomorrow and your favorite tobacco’s are involved! I’m having a bowl of Gawith Hoggarth Bosun Plug in an old Nording stamped for Tinderbox. Also I made a nice chocolate cream pie with many egg yolks, cream, butter and sugar!

    @kcmontie and I are enjoying a chat and a pipe. 1983 crop McCrannies, amazing how spicy this beautiful red Ginny as after all these years

    Canted Bowls ?

    If when the pipe is empty, and the drawer is normal, then you’re simply packing it too tight pull the tobacco out start over and try again pack it lightly light it and tamp it lightly

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    I got the opportunity to get a tin of this McCrannies Red Ribbon 1983 crop tinned back in 1999 for a very fair price. The smell of light vinegar but much deeper and rich than say the 5100 and other McClellands iterations. I’m going to wait until tomorrow to sample it with my benefactor @kcmontie...

    Some friends and I were chatting about Esoterica Stonehaven and it’s been awhile since I had a bowl. It’s not my favorite thing but I do like it once the wine topping burns off. Peterson XL02 Donegal Rocky

    Tin bids veracity

    All of the esoterica I have dumped on there went to china through an American hub. None of it is worth it for me to what they are willing to spend for it except B.K. Flake

    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2025?***

    I wanted to compare Janneman with Reiner 71 back to back as I remember someone saying how similar they are. Having smoked a bowl of 71 last night in this same pipe and smoking this now I really don’t see much comparison. 71 is brighter and more perique.

    Show Us Your Blatter Pipes

    This is my first Blatter that I just picked up from eBay but hopefully not the last! I have been wanting a large billiard but haven’t seen one pop up anywhere in the couple years I’ve been looking. Does anyone know if they do commissions and what is the best way to reach them? I’ve tried...
