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

I’m also starting to think almost any blend is improved by perique, it’s like tobacco salt.

More of the same in the same

 

[Ben.R.C]

Blends with Perique are almost always what I grab for. I have to pick up some 100 Perique to put this to the test!!

Same! That was my favorite of the group when you first posted. Thought for sure it was a goner.

I keep extra perique around as well. Even my favorite English’s generally have perique.

Congrats to you father and congrats to you for being a good son to him.

@JimInks

Thanks.
He and my Mum were blessed in having a wonderful daughter (my younger sister) who looked after both of them so well.
Until Mum’s passing 3 years ago, my sister travelled with both of them on overseas holidays 2 or 3 times each year.

I keep extra perique around as well. Even my favorite English’s generally have perique.

Same! I think my first Perique add will be to Five Brothers to create "Five Bayou Brothers"

Hermit Tobacco Captain Earle's Honor Blend in a Savinelli

 

[JimInks]

Enjoyed a tasty Envy apple, and am close to the last third of this bowl of year 2012 Esoterica Dunbar in a smooth straight, dark brown early 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Watching Farewell, My Lovely starring Robert Mitchum. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

CVP in an Al Pascia.

I was going to do the exact same thing. I was looking at it for months.
Tell me when you're ready to let it go.

Yeah even at the price he had it listed for I was surprised it was there so long.

It has the most perfect 360 straight grain ive ever seen. Legit 360, not ebay “360”

Unlikely I’ll ever let it go, unless my financial wellbeing takes a shockingly dire turn, haha.

Peterson Deluxe CP 125th Anniversary B42 Rua - looks like a cherry Coke, lol, so some Boswell’s Cherry Vanilla! View attachment 260330

I’m not a Pete guy but that is a good looking pipe. Enjoy!

More Night Train. Not my favorite blend but still a decent smoke. Trying to work through it open up a jar hahaha

Enjoying Gawith Hogarth & Co. Dark Plug in a Barling Dublin. It’s a beautiful, warm Arizona evening out here in the Mohave Desert.

Kendal Flake in a Norwalk Shellmoor rusticated straight bulldog with Bulleit Bourbon frontier whiskey and coffee.

Brown Twist with a bit of Dark Birds Eye to get 'er going. Stanwell 2006 DM.

 

[BenMN]

I’ve been eyeing that one as well, I’m pipe broke though! I love my scovgaard, I think it’s a fair price.

It's a sweet pipe for sure. And I'm certain that price reflects the few flaws. His more perfect pieces are twice that and more.

Came very close to buying a different one from SPC on recent sale. Kinda surprised I didn't.

Near the last quarter of this bowl of Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a smooth medium bend terracotta Peterson POY 2023 X160 464/1100 military mount egg with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.

 

[JimInks]

Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of year 2014 Dan Tobacco Hamborger Veermaster in a medium bend black sandblasted 1925 Dunhill double patent “Shell” 56/10 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
