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

[Sig]

I just opened my 3rd tin of Cult BRM sinse March. I know it gets mixed reviews, but I like it.
Smoking some in the Doc Watson.
We are on bear watch around here the last couple days, so I have my "bear watch" pipe rest with me. Sorry if pipe rests offend anyone.

Enjoying some Peterson Irish Cask this evening. When I first tried this I didn’t like the topping. Let it sit for a year and half and I have to say this is a good vaper.

My wife insists I get a Peterson Dracula pipe. She doesn't smoke, but likes vampires and likes the look.

A quarter of a bowl left of first production Watch City English Ernie-ental in a straight dark brown and tan rusticated Peterson 2023 Saint Patrick’s Day 264 Canadian with an Irish flag colored ferrule and tapered black acrylic stem. Watching the Braves-Marlins game. Fed all the ferals and my cats. Harry the Hairy is snoozin' by my feet. He's been an attention sponge today.

 

[JimInks]

Wow, Jim. With all of those double portions for lunch, you'd better hope the rain stops soon so you can get back to walking....

Wait until you see what I am having for dinner.

I do love a 'basic' cob, but that right there is one of the coolest looking cobs ever.

Thank you.... A few of the members here were posting pictures of theirs back in the spring, and I like to get a new cob each year for the summer, so the Diamondback was this years pick.

The Aperitif in my Mastro de Paja 3AL Egg, and an Imperial IPA while I scribble up the minutes from last month's HAM club meeting..

How sweet, wife of the year right there! I, too, hope you recover well and soon, and that you enjoy breaking that bad boy in while you’re doing it.

Thanks!

Perfect cob blend imho

 

[Sobrbiker]

@bobpnm-that’s awesome (the pipe, not the bite).

Driving home with XXV Dusk in the Sportsman 87. It’s a hot one this afternoon.


@Sig, it ain’t brandishing if your pipe rest is holstered.

Purple Cow has become a staple in my rotation since trying it at the end of Spring. I actually have a Moonshine Stublin dedicated to it but wanted to give it a go in a fresh cob. It was good for sure!

Almost done with the week, and tomorrow will mostly be in the field. Monday will be busy, but it should be fun. Currently enjoying some current production Low Country Edisto in my Pete System Spigot Rusticated 304, my favorite right now. I am helping my mother-in-law draft a semiformal email addressed to somebody she can’t stand (but also can’t avoid), a funny request but I get it and I’m happy to help. Hope everyone is enjoying their time today, sure have seen some cool pipes lately.

Running around town just as rush hour was starting was enough to make me relieved to be back in the peace and quiet of the shop lounge with its surround forest view. I'll take this leather couch and a bowl of Former's Straight Grain Flake in a Rattrays olive wood to a cigarillo and traffic any time.
