D&S Merry Monk in the Mike Sebastian Bay cutty

 

[Beowoulf]

Now smoking some of 4noggins' Lord Methley - another blend from their Aromatic Sampler Pack. A cool, smooooth smoke. The pipe was carved in the Ukraine by someone they referred to a "The Master". The wood, I believe, is pear.

Good day all! Started with KBV Raven Eye Flake (rumored to be stoved Stokkebye LBF) in a Nachwalter flame grain Scandi-Lumberman size 4. Very nice.

[JimInks]

Just finished smoking 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.

Before 2020 it definitely had the 'Pub Toilet' sort of taste to it. @simong thought it reminded him of an Avon room freshener or Glade Airwick. I think the plug is much better than Grousemoor even if they do sort of smell very similar.

That’s right, it did. The first & last plug of cannon I bought was probably ten years ago.
The most ‘intensely scented’ plug, I’ve ever come across. Like having air freshener sprayed in your face, up your nostrils, in your ears & up your arse! Lol. Leaving you feeling you’ve been violated by the violets & floored by the florals!

 

[JimInks]

Enjoyed a tall stack of cinnamon raisin French toast with a golden delicious apple on the side. I'm nearing the last quarter of this bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star mmmMidnight, neat, is my drink. No rain now, but a stiff back precludes walking today.

 

[Reggie]

I’m about to burn The Yacht to the draft line in a Neerup . Love this blend !

 

[SBC]

violated by the violets & floored by the florals

Well done.

 

[Pooh-Bah]

Gotta say, I like the taste of cigar more in my pipe that I do in their pure form.

 

[Pipe&Chess]

I am breaking in a new pipe today with Dorchester. The pipe is a chimney that I noticed in one of @Pipe&Chess posts. Turns out it is a 50th Anniversary pipe from the Danish Pipe Shop referred to as The Dan Pipe shape.

You could call it a straight bent or a reverse cant , depending on how you see it. It is intended to be affordable. There is a write up on its story here: The Dan Pipe Shape

Hope you’re enjoying yours, I love mine. As I am a newbie of sorts, let me know if you find a specific type of tobacco that seemed to go well with it!

 

[Carol]

Enjoying Haunted Bookshop in the small briar. Happy Friday everyone

 

[Fralphog]

A relaxing afternoon smoke with a mug of Pu’erh tea and the 2009, NWC Commemorative Boswell Poker with some 2011 Marlin Flake.

 

[JimInks]

A third of a bowl left of year 2014 Sutliff 1849 in a medium bend smooth dark brown 1968 Barling 5631 London England TVF billiard silver spigot with a tapered black vulcanite stem. The rain is back as expected.

So did Winston Churchill’s gardner.
Im burning several blends with Cigar Leaf, GLP Key Largo, C&D Billy Budd and JJ Fox Bankers, Semois to name a few. Give them a try.

 

[Auxsender]

JC DP Kentucky in an Axmacher. I have to force myself to smoke other blends, this is my current favorite, I thinks it’s better then ODF and same strength profile.

The whole time you’ve used that abbreviation I’ve not known what it is.
What is JC DB?
