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

[Skink]

C&D Billy Budd in a Celebi Meerschaum with a cup of black tea.

Fixed it for you, everyone knows a golf course is just a waste of a rifle range

Thanks so much! You're right, of course. Every once in a while I need to be brought to my senses.

 

[Tom Sawtooth]

HU Tobacco- Nebari in a Radice and a Cup of Joe.

 

[JimInks]

Relaxing after four wonderful half pound cheeseburgers and home made potato chips dinner. Dessert was a small bowl of strawberry ice cream and a big golden delicious apple. A bottle of Boyland's Birch Beer was my drink. I've passed the half way mark of this bowl of year 2017 Esoterica Dorchester in a straight smooth dark brown octagonal paneled mid-60s-early 70s Corporate Era Barling 4945 London England T.V.F. billiard with a square shank and black tapered square stem. This pipe is from the estate of David Cuneo. It's too humid for coffee, so ice water and bergs is my drink. Enjoying the company of m'lady's young niece.

Habana Daydream in the wormy-carved no-name "imported briar" billiard with tapered vulcanite stem.

After a few minutes of sledging the site, then overturning it all with the backhoe, Operation Doom has concluded.

 

[Lucro]

Craving something sweet and dessert like tonight. Instead of indulging in a sugar bomb culinarily, I opted for Sutliff Vanilla Royale in my Nording 506

 

[Scottmi]

Scott needs a flame thrower.

I have resisted flame throwers and weed burners to date. Though we have ample wet seasons, fire hazard up here is EXTREMELY HIGH in the summers when these buggers are a MENACE.

After dinner burley flake in a Fikri Baki bamboo. Always a most excellent combo.

Bald Headed Teacher in this Jeantet. Pellegrino with a twist.

Ooooh Boy. Steamworks. I'd ration that one in small pipe territory and treat it as a rare treat. Unless you got tons of it. I've 1 1/2 tins left and I treat it like a rare visit to a great Sushi Restaurant. One of my "Magnificent Seven" that gets the kid glove treatment . . . . just a GREAT tobacco!

I have one tobacco I like real well that has become unobtanium. No rationing for me. I smoke it whenever I’m in the mood, which is frequently as of late. I’d rather enjoy it today in case I don’t see tomorrow. I dread the thought of my relatives throwing out a favorite tobacco after I die because I was stingy with it. Eat, drink, smoke, and be merry. After it is gone I will still have good tobaccos to smoke.

SP needs to add a XXV Reserve Day and they'll have a complete Foundation set!

Brown Clunee in an Altinay.

 

[BriaronBoerum]

Had a nice cigar on a nice day and keeping with the outdoor theme, it's time to bust into some more Midsommar because, well, tis the season. For this little episode i have chosen a Tekin squashed tomato and a chair near some of the blossoms at the corner of the garage for a nice surround view of the serenity the surrounding Doug Fir forest has to offer.

Nice crocosmias, man!

7 year old Wessex Red Virginia Flake in a blasted Willmer billiard.

That they are. I’m jealous of your hoe!
Back in the late seventies, my stepdad had a 400 acre Angus ranch in Oklahoma. One day my mother (in a lovely pair of seventies slacks) was outside and one of those buggers went up here pant leg and stung her all the way up her leg and all the way back down. It was horrible.

 

[Puff nstuff]

1931 Flake in the Bari Senior pickaxe. These two are a match made in pipe smoker's heaven. With a cold Kona Brewing Co Longboard Lager.
