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

[Ben.R.C]

Bowl of John Cotton Kentucky in an S Bang, also shown is my new Pre-Republic Pete, late 1940’s. The rim looked shot in the pics and did not cost me much, rim looks fine, I’ll have to evaluate if the rest of the pipe is in decent condition but it looks nice to me.

I paid 120$ for this Pete, Any Pete experts know if the price was good?

Stratford is a good, dependable blend!

Warhorse Red in a Bones Stubby drinking Bustelo on the back porch had a visiter from one of the local bears.

For budget coffee, Bustelo is my jam. I was in a band called Bustello I liked it so much!

Are you going to the Borghese Gallery and Museum while you’re in Rome?

Good day all! Starting with KBV Red Line ("most sippable Carolina Reds...with spicy dark Virginias") in a Tilshead smooth Semibent with tapered stem. Very, very nice.

Looks good to me, I would pay that for it.

Undecided. Will let my daughter decide as it is her trip. I have the feeling she will choose shopping on our final day.

Bowl before bed. Davidoff - Medallions in a Viprati 1clover.

Bobs Chocolate Flake in the flake master 3000. 1/3 through the bowl is where the bass always drops.

Stratford in my Pete with Prosecco for my daughter and a mojito for me, calamari to eat at Campo di Fiori

A third of the way through this bowl of early 2000s Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. No walks due to rain today. Watching the Pirates-A's game. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Oh wow, I hadn’t been paying attention to the pipes over at Iwan Ries.

I didn’t know their house pipes were from Genod. How long has Genod been making pipes for them?

YO @alaskanpiper did you know this? hmm

Going to need to now put IR on the radar, as I’m still looking.

Yes, it is a good idea to watch them, although they rarely have more than a few in stock.

First smoke in this MPB Brebbia NAÏF 7069. It’s an estate buy, that’s spent the last week being cleaned. Starting it off with Elizabethan Mixture. At 2” tall and a hair under 7/8” ID this guy packs a good amount of tobacco. It sits well in the hand and a quarter of the way into this bowl I can tell it’s going to be a great pipe.

Wood fired pizza for supper with a Lambrusco. My daughter got pasta. Stratford in my Pete again (surprise). This tobacco is an all day smoke! This Pete remains a good smoke after so many bowls every day. I love smoking at the table after the meal, and while walking.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am almost half way through this bowl of year 2018 Solani 633 in a straight 1954 patent Dunhill 148 Group 3 black shell bulldog made for the France market with a black saddle vulcanite stem. George Russell Fog Lifter, neat, is my drink.
