***What Are You Smoking, June 2023?***

GLP Geometrie in a Savinelli Punto Oro 707

My original choice was HH Pure Virginia, but I found that I didn’t have any that wasn’t palpably moist.

I want to try Tilbury, it is on my bucket list of overpriced tobacco . Dorchester and Dunbar are so good!

PM me your address : )

Now that the haze has cleared up a little bit, back to the grindstone!
Mystery Lat Blend C

Baggy note of bbq sauce.

In the pipe: An old scholar's study. Just instinctively, I want to say that this is what mid-level Latakia is. Less spicy on the retrohale than B was, which is proving a delightful playground for contemplation. Making a conscious effort to detect flavor and aroma, I do get some comfy grassiness, or maybe that's just the pleasant interplay of damp soil with the pipe.
Just now I got a note of That One Friend's Basement Where We Used To Play Diddy Kong Racing On The Nintendo 64, which is another wholly irrelevant note to anyone but myself - but that house always smelled a little like hot peppers, so I suppose imagine the faint aroma of hot peppers that have infused into shag carpet such that what remains is no spice and all vegetal goodness.
I could probably smoke this contentedly all day, and greet any visitors brave enough to dare the English fog with a "You think this is bad? Pathetic!".

Good day all! Starting this last day of June on a KBV run, namely Red Line ("most sippable Carolina Reds" etc.) in an Upshall sandblast Canadian size 4. Will end the calendar day with Matured Fragrant Virginia in a companionable Upshall, too. Lovely pipes back there, Ben.R.C.!

Thank you!

Now smoking year 2013 Esoterica Tilbury in a 2002 smooth Rinaldo Silver Line 3 EGER 05 paneled horn with a silver band and a black acrylic stem. Getting ready to clean a few pipes.

 

[Ben.R.C]

I’ve generally separated my pipes by genre of tobacco I smoke in them. Things have slowly evolved over time where I now have enough pipes to be able to assign specific blends to particular pipes, which doesn’t seem like the worst problem to have.

I know I need to start dedicating pipes to tobacco families, etc. but It seems like a pain in the ass. I don’t think I smoke very ghosty things, I may live to regret those words!

Probably my last smoke of June?
Yesterday afternoon, had some PS 4th Gen Evening Flake in my Boswell Volcano sitter at the monthly Holy Smokes Bible study.
Now- Front Porch with MM cob with a personal mixture of C&D baccys. A
mug of 50/50 homemade Kombucha and black ice tea.

 

[FurCoat]

Same as yesterday. Loaded a bunch of cobs with MM American Patriot while in the garden.

Now I'm in trouble, because I have to choose the pipes I want to smoke in the upcoming five weeks. This is the most difficult part of vacation every year. Luxury problems...

That's a funny name for a dog, but I suppose it's better than Fish Tail.

 

[Tar Wheel]

TGIF! It’s been a long week , playing catch up after all of last week‘s rain. I’m ready to relax with a bowl of Anthology in a billiard meer and a pour or two of bourbon. Have a great evening, all.

Cheers!

i have a half-dozen or so pipes I only smoke on vacation. Mostly inexpensive machine mades. In that way if I lose or break one, it’s no big deal. Last year, I made the mistake of leaving one in my jacket pocket which I placed in the overhead compartment on the plane. Someone put a suitcase on top and the stem broke in the middle. I was happy it wasn't my Teddy Knudsen or S.Bang.

Half way through this bowl of year 2013 Capstan Blue Ready Rubbed in a straight smooth brown 1933-1945 Comoy’s patent Grand Slam 127 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. I'd have posted sooner, but Abner the Eager snuck in the house, and greatly surprised me by jumping on my lap, and taking a snooze. I am amazed that he did that. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Some ‘83 red flake in this Rattrays. Is that it warmed up I can finally start smoking my pure Virginias!
