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

[Kingsley]

Nice and warm (all things considered) 31° winter evening, Capstan Gold RR for the first bowl smoked in this new little Altinay.
Nice little thing, and I love the carvings.

Bob’s first spin out of his stall (other than caring for his wound) since a bad cut on his leg last Friday, and the first spin of a new Ropp Etudiant J07 with 5Bros.View attachment 363990

He's recovering OK then?

Sitting outside on this beautiful, sunny January day.
Just got this new to me, Peterson, 101 Republic of Ireland,Billiard in the mail from Reborn Pipes.
Also in the mail was some WC Waltham Broken Cake, a Burley blend.
I’m very pleased with this new pipe- great first smoke with new blend.

I've had this blend on my radar for a while now, just haven't pulled the trigger yet. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it!

After dinner bowl of VA in a Bear's Den Briar commissioned snail. About to break this up into two jars. Keeping one up here and taking one down south. Just starting to pack and plan.

Looks like a big piece of antler on there?

Yup. I’m a sucker for anything Stagg.
I got a couple Stagg antler church wardens. And a few Stagg pipes.
I should have a new custom Stagg churchwarden being finished this week hopefully.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I just finished smoking year 2013 Germain’s Plum Cake in an undated, unbranded straight lattice meerschaum military mount with a silver cap and tapered yellow acrylic stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

 

[JimInks]

Now smoking year 2021 KBV Your Welcome in a straight smooth dark brown 1930s (Comoy’s) Canadian Club 230 eight paneled billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Watching Nova on PBS. It's about cats.

 

[Ben.R.C]

Ah, so nice to have this Suhr lumberman back and better than ever. Chenet’s cake of course. Warmed up a little, so back outside.

 

[spearheadbill]

Some Revor plug in a Castello 16 kk Old Antiquari to end the evening.

I need better lighting for this shit. Lol

 

[JimInks]

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am off to work on a new Archie story with a bowl of year 2020 D&R Raccoon’s Friend in a pre-1980s straight dark brown Comoy's Sandblast 186 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

 

[PrivatePiping]

Peterson Nightcap in a Pete natural spigot B10.

 

[Snook]

Enjoying some Mac Baren Scottish Mixture for the inaugural smoke of this Missouri Meerschaum Diamondback that just arrived today. I’m really enjoying the shape of this one; it feels great in the hands. And of course, it smokes like a dream!
