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

[JimInks]

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking year 2010 Amphora Original (Brown) in a 1990s slight bend black Sasieni 4 Dot Ruff Root Dark 4 Dublin with a black vulcanite saddle stem. I may end the day with this smoke. Tomato the Brave's still inside, and it's time for his wet food. It's Daisy the Feral Princess' time, too. I'll have to put Harry the Hairy out to avoid trouble. He ate well though.

Started this bowl of Ken Byron’s Ventures Artifact in a Vauen Basic 4403 while catching up on WAYS. I probably will finish off this bowl tomorrow.

Happy Friday all! Smoking my third pre-work bowl, Chenet’s cake in a Cornelius Manz tomatoish thing. Also a photo of the Manz I just put on layaway, I’ve been into stubby pots lately!

2021 Sun Bear in a Caminetto. This is one of my most abused pipes. Not from neglect but from love. This pipe is so dry and smokes everything very well. So it gets brought everywhere and is subject to a lot. Has survived quite a few drops very well.

Welcomed sunrise this morning with Country Squire Cowboy Coffee in a Wally Frank 5 star made in London prince. This was my first smoke of Cowboy Coffee and was I pleased! What a great morning blend. Despite the name, no coffee taste or aroma to me but it sure goes well with black coffee. I smoked this completely to white ash and thought about a second bowl. This could easily become my go to morning tobacco.

Cornelius Manz - Low production volume (due to strict standards) ensures an individual approach to each item.
