***What are You Smoking, March 2022?***

[JimK]

Good day all! Starting with St. Bruno RR in a Nachwalter flame grain Canadian with saddle stem (Lumberman/person(s) in PC speak).

 

[Sweet Home Alabama]

I really miss a type of onion that was grown in Oregon, I think they’re called Videlia Onions, so sweet you can eat them like apples. I’m not sure how far and wide they’re exported but it anyone sees them in the grocery store I thoroughly recommend giving them a try, best French Onion soup I ever had was made with Videlias. I imagine that old saying “know your onions” is related to them ?

We have them here. They are grown in Videlia, Georgia. They are the best.

Listening to Red Stone Arsenal blow up something, I’m using a MM Freehand from the 1970’s. Great smoker.

Good morning, all. Starting with BCA and espresso to exorcise the final remnants of the bowl coating flavor on this Pete SPD 2022.

Some Edward G Robinson out of a Savinelli Capri 111. Watching my cows graze and lay around while enjoying a quick bowl outside.

Thought I’d give The Red Hunt another try, this time I nuked it for several seconds and let it air til it was suitably dry. Once again it started out as a thoroughly good VaPer, delicious in fact, but when it hit the last third of the bowl it was sour and bitter and quite horrid. I’m not sure if it’s my cadence or the blend itself, I used a cob this time, I might try it in a clay next to see if it’s a pipe thing. I’d be interested if anyone else has had a similar experience with this blend or can offer some advice on smoking it.

Picked up this 1913 Remington bayonet in a little antique shop in Seaford the other day, it’s a gift for my nephew who is in the Royal Engineers Regiment. I’m gonna spend some time cleaning it up and putting a proper edge on it. He’s gonna be over the moon when he gets this. View attachment 132309

Very cool
A good friend of mine served 23 years in the Royal Engineers. He enlisted at 17 and retired as a Warrant Officer.

Presbyterian in the little meer. Getting windy here again. It can get ugly windy in spring! Good day to all, and peaceful puffing.

Victorian Match

Now smoking first release 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. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

 

[Fralphog]

Mid morning spot of Kenyan Black tea and C&D We 3 Kings in year 2008, Boswell half bend, freehand, fully rusticated pipe. Love this pipe - Smokes great and is so lite. There’s something about the tactile feel of hand rusticated briar that I like. Happy Friday smokes all!

 

[mso489]

Sutliff Balkan Sobranie 759 Match, which really benefits from being aged and dry, in an Iwan Ries house pipe, a smooth taper-stemmed billiard, by Benton (a sub-brand of Edwards) made of oil cured Algerian briar, about 35 years old and looking good and smoking strong, with an excellent large chamber. Cool and sunny here, with minor chores log jammed. Busy.
Appalachian Piper, yes, watching cows, especially your own, is better than an aquarium, hypnotic and serene. The cow world is a better place to be, we all need from time to time.

 

[Mdutson]

Got some more of my taste back and really enjoying this bowl of speakeasy from C&D

Beautiful pipe!

@HawkeyeLinus , thank you sir!

 

[HawkeyeLinus]

This little pipe is a good one, so Forum Friday is another round with the Peterson 999 “Short” - and this tobacco that is seeming a little too subtle for me as I type this, but just settling in!

 

[Paul lec]

Smoking Half and Half in a Rossi Vittoria pipe. Florida sweet onions are also excellent, very large and very sweet!
