Smoking the last of my Wessex Burley slice in a Moonshine smooth bent egg.
Spent some time trying to organize my cellar and came across an old bag of McClelland 5100 I forgot all about. Thankfully I was smart enough to put it in a jar with other miscellaneous tobaccos. Judging from the bag (Uptown’s Smoke Shop) I think this is from around 06. This has to be the sweetest tobacco I have ever had, almost a too sweet candy. Wow. My 2010 5100 is almost perfect. I will try a few more bowls before it goes back in the jar for another long nap.
Having some Granger in a MM cob with coffee
C&D Gentleman Caller in my deer tongue cob, a bent MM Legend.
Dunhill Royal Yacht by Kolhase & Kopp in Dunhill Shell group 3 107 prince, candidly saying ,I doubt if will buy this stuff any more, quite robust,rich in nicotine and rough tasting blend,,
Thanks! This is a Gamboni, I think he calls this one a “Bodog”.
Smoking Revor Plug in a Rattrays Bulldog.
Good morning everyone. Smoking a mix of 3 Sails, Red Virginia Ribbon and Ramback in a Phillip Trypis prince, drinking Community Coffee medium roast.
Yep an obvious Gamboni.
Those Bluebird pipes take a lot of Jean Marie’s design cues.
I’ll need to look up the Bluebirds, I’m not familiar with them.
I think it’s lepipe.it that has them. Definitely “value priced”.
Country Squire’s Hunting Creek in a no-name briar.
Full Virginia Flake in a Peterson's Irish Army pipe.
Cut some grass,now relaxing in the AC with a bowl of MB Plum Cake in my Peterson 107 Aran,waiting for the usual storm,listening to Blue Mitchell Sextet,and drinking a Coke.
Thanks! Wow those are some really nice looking pipes for a great price! I definitely see some similarities to Gamboni’s work on some of them. The Gamboni pipe is by far the most I’ve ever spent on a pipe, I’m more of a tobacco man. I definitely appreciate all the beautiful pipes posted here but most of my collection are factory/mid grade pipes... I had to have at least one high end pipe and I have no regrets but my Stanwell’s/Savinelli’s/Neerup/St. Regis pipes smoke every bit as good and I wouldn’t be crushed emotionally/financially if I were to drop and break a shank on one of those pipes... well maybe some of them I would be crushed emotionally, especially the pipes that have been with me since my humble beginnings.
PS French Vanilla. Tried Old Fredders earlier and damn was that good.
Wessex brigade Classic Virginia in one of my first pipes. A semi bent rusticated Savinelli.
Peretti's 150th flake in a sandblasted Briarworks bullmoose. Masala chai to accompany.
