An afternoon smoke of Reiner Long Gold in a Stanwell Straight grain Lovat

Smoking some Solani 633 in a Savinelli rusticated bing. Not a regular smoke but when I do smoke it I enjoy it, very smooth. Drinking mint tea.

Good afternoon folks, Skiff mix in a Blakemar.

Got a sample of Vauen Virginia Flake. The vessel of degustation is a Castello KKK Sea Rock.

It’s a lovely pipe but it makes me wonder if Castello are aware of the significance of the three K’s? A little naivety on their part perhaps.

@Birddog66 I like the Black Cherry but the Cherry Vanilla is my favourite. My most memorable pipe smoking experience was while watching the Lace Wars re-enactment at Cromford Mill in 2019, almost a year ago, with a clay pipe of Gawith Hoggarth Cherry Vanilla!

I’ve yet to try that one, the twist too. I did try XX Irish twist and that was a bit out of my league at the moment.

Good day to all! Starting the day with 2009 Peretti Park Square in a Tilshead smooth Billiard with a tapered saddle stem.

Greetings to all on a Friday morning. Starting my day with The Amphora Burley in an MM Nekkid Country Gentleman.

Peterson 03 Sea mist as my Early Morning Pipe. This pipe gave me lots of trouble breathing in correctly as well as the coloring rubbing off when I dropped it and put a dent in it. Briarville recolored it and took out the dent. I started over with a more patent break in process and now it is finally becoming a better pipe for smoking. Or should I say a better pipe. A few ghosts haunt her but not to badly.

GH&Co Brown Flake Licorice in a 1979 Peterson Deluxe 9s. It was close at hand from the other day.

Just finished restoring a London made Ben Wade Ruby. At 6.5lx2.3hx1.6w (inches), this is by far the largest Billiard in my collection.
About to test drive this chunkymunky with some ET Margate.
If the tornado hits me, my last smoke oughta be a good one?.

I've been keeping my eye out for a pipe with a big ass bowl specifically for blends like Margate, that can go a bit quick due to their cut.

Now smoking MacBaren HH Bold Kentucky in a Peterson Newgrange 107

Good Day Folks, Zulu in a Dunhill Zulu.

McConnell's RDV in a Washington Park Whitehall Bullcap.

First smoke of the year. Weather was foggy and bit cold but zero wind so I decided to open the "smoking season" today. Went with Mac Baren Vanilla Cream. Not my favorite blend, but decided to start with something light and easy,

Smoking SWR in a Rossi rusticated Canadian. Hot as hell here today!

One of my favorite smoking related memory is with this tobacco. It was a warm summer evening with warm wind and I was sitting outside on the lawn. The wind blew dandelion seeds all around me and dogs were enjoying themselves. Nicotine was hitting just right. Not a care in the world in that moment.

Part way through this bowl of year 2013 Capstan Gold in a post-WWII Bertram 60 straight smooth dark brown squat bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Watching Mad Dog Russo.
