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

[Cloozoe]

Third bowl --Oriental House Blend-- and third cup of coffee.

But lest you think I've been entirely idle, I did feed Dale, who's now taking a little break from his customary arduous morning.

Stunning pipe!

Thank you.

Love smoking it but love an excuse to post picture of it even more - I'm a big fan of bamboo joints and Roman is a real artist with them:

Happy Friday everyone. WCC Undead Scotsman in a S Thile

Wow, I guessed J Davis before reading, Scott makes some nice stuff!

Cob and Ready Rubbed Match. Venturing into the classic combination of pipe and hunting for the first time. I should probably just stick to one or the other.

I thought Exclusive would mix welll with Dorchester, I was right!

Loose stem on my Former update: been smoking it daily and storing in ziplock with boveda, seems like it might be tightening!

^if that doesn't work, you might try gentle, and I mean real gentle like blowdryer on low, heat. No pressing/ force/ manipulation of any kind, just let the heat expand the ebonite back to normal.

Rainy morning, hounds want nothing to do with it

Not sure what im smoking as my jar wasnt labeled. I believe its Black Truffle from Maison Edwards. Its a vanilla aromatic with a light tough of Latakia. Pipe is my 1961 Dunhill Shell Briar. I often wonder what the original owner of this pipe was like and i enjoy pondering that as i smoke it. They were an aromatic smoker as this pipe came to me heavily ghosted. So i continue to use it as my aromatic pipe.

Nearing the half way mark on this bowl of 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. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

Started the day with a 50/50 mix of GH Dark Flake and DVC in a MM Mark Twain. Now enjoying some War Horse Bar in a small Peterson tankard reserved for these strong and heavily scented tobaccos.
