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

[The Clay King]

Afternoon everyone, I started the day with Cascadia Downwind Plug in the little Yello Bole Rhodesian, it’s from somewhere between 1939 - 49 and was as new when I brought it earlier this year, barely a day has passed without my smoking it, it’s especially good with plugs. The Downwind was every bit as good as the Vertical Limit. I’m about View attachment 91262try Open Water in a clay now (don’t say it Dan! ?)

@Birddog66 Nice clay - I like the ship design on the bowl; it would go with my pirate costume!

Started the day with a bowl of SWR in a Sav. Coconut with coffee, may get some welcome relief from the rain today!

@Paul lec It's been raining here in England today as well; glad I got back from my walk when I did!

Good day all! Starting with Carter Hall in a Nachwalter smooth Scoop half bent with brindle stem while waiting for the next round of storms.

The breeze has settled, and I am enjoying my perfectly dried Squadron Leader, having been joined at the water's edge by a hummingbird who is also a fan of Barling's.View attachment 91259

@Western Isles I enjoyed the Squadron leader in my clay pipes.

Thank you, the Cadre was a gift from @simong and it smokes like a dream.

@Birddog66 So @simong has gifted you some baccy as well; enjoy it

The Cadre Noir is actually the Pipe in that picture, it would be a great name for a tobacco though.

Now smoking year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem. Time to do a set of walking reps.

That’s a beautiful pipe (like all those you post here)
IMHO the Hawkbill as a shape doesn’t get the love it deserves

Lunchtime bowl of a favorite combo: Bengal Slices mixed 50/50 with Wilke Chocolate in a sacrificial small Charatan smooth Poker with saddle stem (I'd like to try Wilke Peanut Butter as a mixer, here, too [Latakia, Oriental, Peanut Butter... hmm], as well as with my other combo using SG 1792 Flake [tonquin and peanut butter?] ). Forget Bob's Chocolate Flake or English Chocolate blend. Lunch is served.
