Finally got around to trying Savinelli 140. Smoked a bowl in a meer. I'll have to have a few more bowls to make up my mind, but it was a nice mild smoke.

@Laurent This is the pipeweed used in the Lord of the Rings films. I've smoked it in my clay pipes and I really like the taste & flavours. I'll have to get some more when I order from Smokingpipes again.

It’s a good tobacco I really enjoy it.

Enjoying the last of this bowl of Eccentric in the Bones Stovepipe after replacing a front oil seal and trans line seals (not sure of the latter is the source of the trans leak or not). Waiting to pick up some Butter Chicken and Potato Pacora on the way home.

@BlueRidge Is it right you just slice the twist into coins and then rub it out?
That's what I did when I bought some Gawith brown twist to smoke in my clay pipe at the Battle of Nantwich.
The rubbed out baccy was in larger pieces than commercial Ready Rubbed blends; is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

that's what I do. I'm no pro at twists and ropes should probably spend more time smoking them than chewing them!

@BlueRidge It's never occurred to the Clay King to chew his tobacco...

A nice afternoon, so PS luxury navy flake in, what else but the Georg Jensen Admiral, with shark destroyer hazy IPA, listening to pipes magazine podcast, and cleaning last week’s worth of pipes.

@Scottmi There's only one pipe I'd smoke in this picture - and I'm sure you know which one

 

[The Clay King]

First pipe of the year. Been busy plus it’s been raining a ton! And it’s been so long I got signed out of the forum.

Did have a fun conversation with a friend in Friday about the absolute necessity of having Cuban rum with Cuban cigars. It is on our to do list when he returns from some traveling.

Hope everyone’s well. View attachment 196677

@dunnyboy How much baccy does it hold and how long does it take to smoke?
Do you think I'd like to smoke your giant pipe even though it isn't made of my favourite pipe material?

Wrapping up the weekend with Bosun Cut Plug in a Comoys Christmas 1976.

Good evening all! PC died so had a bit of a problem posting today until I borrowed a laptop. Started with C&D John Marr in a large Upshall P Lovatt; pleasant smoke. Followed with wonderful Peterson Flake in a small Upshall sandblast Dublin with smooth rim and eighth-bent tapered stem size 3-4.
