***What Are You Smoking, May 2025?***

[JimInks]

Near the last third of this bowl of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a very much appreciated 1979 brown, slight bend grain etched flat front Stanwell Rego 969-48 (09) with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Tomato the Brave came in to eat, and was extra hyper. He fiercely attacked the cat nip sock, and the blanket for five minutes. After that, he came up to me, meowed, and went to the back door as if to say, "You fed me. I entertained you. We're even." Harry the Hairy is in now. I took Molly Danger to the bed room to avoid her giving Harry a hard time. Abner the Eager is hiding from Harry, but he did eat.

Now smoking year 2021 Watch City Queequeg’s Moby Dick Series in a medium bend black sandblasted IPSD 2016 Mark Tinsky book keeper 5 with a square shank and a black acrylic saddle stem with a cream colored accent. The shape was designed by my great friend, the late Art Arterburn, and gifted to me by him. I should be able to end the day with this smoke. Harry went out, and I brought Abner the Eager in the eat. He wanted out as soon as he finished. I'm reading baseball box scores.

This is a brand new Dunhill Root 251 produced in 1969. I plan to use C&D Palmetto to complete its first ignition. To be honest, I am a little excited at this moment. It was born 19 years earlier than me!

My go to 'home mix' which is comprised of J-4, sweet VA, and perique in my no name straight, rusticated, octo paneled sitter.

Had to be at the office stupid early (3:30a) to brew a bunch of coffee for a local grocery store that's having their grand re-opening today. Mostly done and have some time to kill so I'm now outside for a quick break. EMP in my ONE Anse with some Brazil Santos Bourbon coffee.

Sleep was too elusive, so I'm smoking year 2016 D&R Two Timer Gold in a straight, black sandblasted pre-1970 Comoy’s Sunrise Etched Grain straight Liverpool 309 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. I'm not far from finishing one of the books that I have been reading, so I'll do that now.

Gorgeous pipe!

Thanks!

I’m smoking it again as I type this. Found out tonight that I can’t retrohale this blend.
I’m curious too. I might buy some other brands and give it a try, but I am happy with the C&D. Pipes and Cigars has it in bulk but doesn’t specify what brand. I noticed @BlueRidge purchased a Ryback +P starter kit on a recent TAD post, with both brands of perique. Let us know if you have a preference.

Hey will do. Hope to get a chance to mix 10% and 20-25% this weekend. Ryback on its own is a steal at $21. This was my first go at it

Milan's KCM in an MM Boone.

 

[Speak Easy]

Spaghetti Western in a Bones Specimen to start the day.

Sutliff Anomalous in a Zephair, courtesy dkmetalpipes, with some Typhoo. Reading Plato's Theatetus.

Anomalous is tasty at first but it gets too ashy to me toward the end. Chalk it up to inexperience and a long break in pipe smoking, I suppose.

Steamworks on this sunny morning- in the Ashton XX Pebble Grain 218.

 

[bobpnm]

Good morning! Coffee and a cob full of my current favorite burley to start my day! Perfection Plug is a really fine smoke!

@PaulRVA That is a beautiful pipe.

@telescopes Love the hat and pipe combo.

On the menu for my first smoke of the day is a half of a bowl of GH&Co Dark Plug loaded in my Falcon with a billiard meer and paired with a lightly flavored vanilla coffee.

Hope you all have a great Wednesday!

Good for you on the coffee! My favorite new coffee is a local organic caramel flavored coffee, which I take black, but the wife gives me grief, claiming manly men don’t drink flavored coffee, even black. I tell her manly men are secure enough in their manhood to drink flavored coffee and not care what she thinks, lol.
