I’ve been smoking C&D House Reserve in my cobs all week.

Great blend! Second favorite grand oriental so far behind Yenice Agonya.

Greetings all. Opening Night for the maiden smoke in a new Rossi Sera 8804.

Exactly what I'm smoking on as I type. Enjoy the new pipe!

Almost a third of the way through this bowl of year 2001 Murray’s Dunhill Navy Rolls in a 2002 black pebble finish straight Cavicchi C. Fatto A Mano billiard with a tapered black acrylic stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

 

[JimInks]

Thank you. That is just part of my rotation so I guess I have a 'cutty' issue! That picture was taken in 2014 and represents a small percentage of my collection. I once had the pleasure of having Jim over for dinner and we spent a good few hours wandering through my collection.

That was a great evening for m'lady and me. You were a wonderful host, my friend.

Sutliff States of Virginia in a Radice Rind Straight.

Getting ready to watch some more Jamestown, and this is certainly a fitting blend for the show too... LOL

Be well everyone!



This one goes out to @The Clay King

Here’s the intro to the show you can see here in this Vimeo video.

Here’s some cool screen shots...

P.S. This Jamestown show is when the English first settled too in Virginia, notice the English flag in the credits.

Now smoking some pipe tobacco and rubbed cigarillos combined in one "blend", in a George Leoussis pipe.
Still performing the high art of a lazy dog, work starts again middle of next week.
Have a nice Friday good people!

Just finished smoking year 2012 Carter Hall in a black rusticated medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 437/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.

 

[JimInks]

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. I'll probably end the day with this smoke.

 

[JimInks]

A third of a bowl left of Wilke Peanut Butter in a 1980s black sandblasted slight bend Savory’s Argyll 281 Cherrywood with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Proofing and editing is taking me longer than expected. This should do it for me.

Smoking some HU Ju 52. I didnt think I liked this on the first few puffs but its tasty with a cup of coffee. Not so much aromatic flavor after the first five minutes or so.. Its in a Radice. Im thinking it would be tasty with some Directors cut added for some extra depth and complexity. I will have to try that next time I pull it out of the closet.

Cumberland in a dirty Wiley with coffee on the side. It's pipe cleaning time.

 

[Sigmund]

After Covid loss of taste Im happy to be back in Lat Land with a bowl of Fayyum Kake in an Anscorti POTY 2002.

 

[AppalachianPipe92]

Last year's Atalaya from a Morgason anse this morning.

Routine makes time go by faster, they say you have to introduce spontaneity, randomness, change, whatever. At least I vary my pipes and tobacco! I think I will angle my smoking chair a little more to the left today!
