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

[Dr. Van Loafer]

Went for a walk and enjoyed some of my own Burley blend mixed with Boswells Old School in a Golden Square Meer lined billiard.

Now smoking first release Watch City Rhythm & Blues in a black sandblasted straight 1998 XXX Ashton Pebble Grain lovat with a black acrylic saddle stem.

Next up was a bowl of Warped Cigars The Haunting loaded in my Stanwell POTY 2024 and the rest of my iced coffee.

HU Janneman Flake in a Castello 31 and Diet Coke on the side.
Been burning up I 81/40 & Switchbacks in the Smokies all day so I have some catching up to do.

My last smoke was really nice. So I did it again. OJK in a Carl Harris 4 Square.

The word is out. Your house is feral paradise!

It happens to an awful lot of cat lovers. It's as if the cats left chalk-signs outside houses, the way hobos used to, to tell their fraternity what each householder was like - where to call, where not to call, etc.

Wessex Gold Virginia Flake in a Radice Silk Cut 55

 

[Choatecav]

Beautiful day here today and I got several things accomplished but mostly just enjoyed the sun and the warmth.
I decided to close the day with some Carolina Red Flake w/Perique '25. I enjoyed it in one of my favorite billiards. A Ben Wade Black Friar. I thought to myself, "What would @Speak Easy do?" So I tried a picture with the pipe silhouetted against the setting sun. Came out sorta cool. Then I took a more conventional shot.

 

[JimInks]

Now smoking and reviewing KBV Fuzzy’s Toast of London in a 1986 three quarter bend Bacchus face CAO meer with a tapered dark tortoise shell colored acrylic stem.

Lighting up some 2025 Yuletide by LJ Peretti in a Peterson 03 Irish whiskey watching the Santa Clause, this blend screams Christmas taste like peppermint

 

[dublinpiper90]

Got on Smokingpipes to order some more Visions of Celephais.

Somehow this estate Comoy's Vintage Smooth Dublin wound up in my cart.

Made an excellent pairing while I worked on the boat.

Nice looking pipe

Best Brown Flake in a Vauen Kira 503

 

[Mortar0341]

It’s only my second bowl of Northwoods. I’m undecided about this blend but want to give it several more bowls before reaching any conclusions. I understand it to be an English “crossover” blend, and so far, it burns nicely with a normal amount of relights but I’m finding the topping may make it a bit too sweet and aromatic for my tastes, which admittedly skew in favor of natural tobacco, English, Balkan, Virginias, and VaPers, without much added flavorings. I only bought 4 oz to try, so science demands I soldier on!

I meant the pipe
