***What Are You Smoking, April 2021?***

[Birddog66]

Good morning, I just got some Germain’s RJ Perique which I’m trying in a Longchamp bent billiard covered with black leather (it’s my Fonze Pipe) I’m finding this a little bitter but that could be me.
I put a order in with smokingpipes yesterday, a great site but they seem to spend more time describing what’s on the label or behind the name than the actual tobacco.

A coat of honey on the inside helps, I’d say anything but a Flake for breaking in a bowl. That’s just my personal opinion though.

Thanks for the info, that's good to know!

Four Squires in a Tanganyika Kudu Zulu, I’ll be getting more of this to put away I think.
It’s my eldest sisters birthday tomorrow so I must go and find something nice for her. She’s always been there for me and I couldn’t have asked for a better sis.

Good morning folks, Nightcap in a Peterson's.

This morning it’s Ken Byron Ventures Mycroft ‘21 in a big ole Estella 115 EX.

I mixed a few ozs of tobacco in my big Sterlite mixing bowl and hydrated it with the peel of a navel orange for a few hours.
I mixed PenHooker with Big 'n Burley, about 65/35.
I'm about to smoke a bowl in a MM Morgan with an overall length of 7" because I'm using a modified og cobbit shire (vulcanite) stem.
This mix tastes great and is fine as is, but I will likely tinker with it before it's all gone. I'm thinking of adding some Ramback. Just a handful.
(I have some Ramback Balkan, but not a whole lot, and I can't get it anymore...sheesh, one of their last blends for me to get to and poof.)

Good morning all. Inspired by Ettrick Puffer and that beautiful NB Zulu, I'm starting the day again with SG 1792 Flake mixed with Wilke Chocolate in a small Upshall sandblast Dublin with smooth rim and eighth bent stem.

Esoterica Tilbury 2016 in a Peterson Sherlock Holmes Smooth Strand as my last bowl of the day. ️

Amphora Virginia in a Balandis pipe. Kind of cloudy here along the Nature Coast, not much going on today, but that’s fine?

GH Dark scented in a Nording Sailor at the mo. I’v dried a little Germain’s Plum Cake and I’m going to have that in a meer lined bent Lacroix two star after I’ve done some housework.

 

[Skatutakee]

Trafalgar in one of those half-price Peterson John Bulls. (Why yes, the mail *did* just arrive. Why do you ask?)

 

[ophiuchus]

Cloudy, rainy, cold out. I’ll brave it for a walk eventually, but I’ve spent the morning clearing space in the “cave” for a new computing workstation (yeah, I know, old school).

I’m halfway through a pot of Leelanau Roasters Kenya, and a Stanwell Trio 86 is the pipe of the day.



(Seen here resting between smokes.) After a bowl of Peter Stokkebye Amsterdam No. 83, followed by a bowl of Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic, I’m just starting up on a load of Rattray’s Exotic Passion. This will leave a fun ghost to play with later.
