***What Are You Smoking, August 2024?***

[Skippy Piper]

Trying out some War Horse Green for the first time tonight, in a Country Gentleman cob.




For those curious to know more about it, you can find my rather lengthy first impressions on this blend here: Skippy's Blend of the Week :: Pipe Tobacco Reviews - https://pipesmagazine.com/forums/threads/skippys-blend-of-the-week.106239/post-37082120

Passing the half way mark of this bowl of year 2014 Uhle’s 00 in a 2015 straight smooth dark brown Peterson Irish Harp 150 bulldog with a silver band and a tapered acrylic cumberland fish tail stem. Haven't smoked his pipe in a while. Reading baseball box scores.

Woke up in the middle of the night and decided it was a great opportunity to slip one more in. Funny how that changes meanings as we approach codger-dom. In this case, i'm referring to one more bowl of Dockworker in a Bellezia with horn shank adornment with a hot mug o tea. In my 20s and 30s that same sentiment would carry a whole different connotation.

Just over a third of a bowl left of year 2020 Angler's Dream in a 1984 Stanwell Antique 124 egg with a smooth brown front and a black sandblasted back with a dark gold ferrule and black vulcanite stem in the military mount style. Just fed all the ferals, and it was challenging to keep them apart. Daisy the Feral Princess ate wet food behind the recycle container in the kitchen while Tomato the Brave ate wet food at the other end of the room. Tomato didn't seem happy about it for some reason, and didn't eat much. Abner the Eager was eating dry food in the bathroom. Harry the Hairy ate outside. After everybody ate, I put Tomato out before he went after Abner. Abner went to the kitchen and both Sleepy Suzy or Daisy were unhappy to see him, so I put him out, which I would have done eventually. At least I have peace and quiet now. I'll end the day with this smoke.

After the War Horse Green I was in serious need of a familiar favorite tobacco, so I'm having some Captain Black original in a Dr. Grabow Royalton. I really enjoy the simple vanilla coffee creamer sort of flavor and I swear Captain Black has got the best room note I've ever smelled from any pipe tobacco, like freshly baked sugar cookies.

Morning blend in a Eltang basic..coffeeView attachment 332298

Sheath on that Bushcrafter tales of an adventure or two. Mine is an old friend, setting here on my desk reminding me it's time to get out for a reset. A pipe or two should definitely come along.

Bob's Chocolate Flake in a Butz Choquin Flash for the morning commute. It'll be my first smoke in this little pipe. I'm learning to appreciate these small pipes for the short drive to work.

A bowl of Margate jarred from 2006 in the Radice Rind. I fell in love with the spiral shank on this pipe. It was bought a while ago from R.D. Field’s collection of pipes.

 

[JimInks]

Never really slept, so I'm a quarter of the way through this bowl of Watch City Queequeg’s Moby Dick Series in a straight brown sandblasted post-WWII family era Sasieni “Canadian” London Made with a sterling silver band with a tapered black vulcanite twin bore stem. An hour ago, I noticed the back motion light was on, but no ferals were around. No food either, and I suspect something chased them off. Well, they'll be back.

Yes! @Lost Somnambulist indeed! The call of the mountains and forest, I’ve been a half dozen times this year but it doesn’t seem like enough. This knife and pipe have been great companions throughout!!

Starting my week with some Sir James Flake thanks to @PipeIT in a PM2012 meerschaum

Opened a 100g tin of Orlik’s Golden Sliced, and like all good fly fishermen, I “matched the hatch” with an orange stained Henri pipe from Denmark. You can’t go wrong with a pipe tobacco “smoked by all shrewd judges.“
