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

[hoosierpipeguy]

2015 OGS in a Cermak. This blend gets really good with age. That small portion of Perique becomes very sweet with some fruity notes.

 

[JimInks]

A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2018 Solani 633 in a straight 1954 patent Dunhill 148 Group 3 black shell bulldog made for the France market with a black saddle vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Going to feed the ferals as soon as Sleepy Suzy finishes her meal.

93 Sandblasted Full Bend Dunhill with Quiet Nights.

 

[JimInks]

Did some low calorie snacking, and have passed the half way mark of this bowl of year 2013 Esoterica Tilbury in a smooth medium bend 1999 Peterson Sherlock Holmes Series Milverton with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite p-lip stem. Fed all the ferals except for the absent Abner the Eager, who ate a ton of food earlier today. Harry the Hairy is always disappointed that we won't let him inside. When I fed him earlier, he was crying for attention, and tried to climb up my leg. I picked him up, rubbed his back and talked to him. He was purring up a storm. He hardly leaves our yard anymore, and is always waiting for us when we go outside. Such an affectionate, loyal cat sure needs a better place to be than here where he gets a scant amount of what he really wants.

Passing the first third of this bowl of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 1979 black sandblasted medium bend Savinelli Non Pareil 9606 Billiard with a military mount horn ferrule and black vulcanite saddle stem. Been reading baseball box scores.

Now smoking Wilke No. 515 Double Shot in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This is No. 515 with twice the rum of the Basil Rathbone blend. Not sure if I'll end the day with this smoke or not.

Briar Fox in the Weber Old Standard.

 

[The Clay King]

Ennerdale Flake in a vintage Workman clay; the pipe's older than me! Jason (the blacksmith) says the RAOB clay I bought at Avoncroft Living History Festival is colouring nicely; it's had some good pipeweed in it! One of the Redcoats at Avoncroft shared his tin of Peterson Connoisseur's Choice with this fellow Redcoat; he FILLED the clay pipe, TAMPED it down & STUFFED some more in!
