***What Are You Smoking, October 2024?***

[Sobrbiker]

Holy crap, I get a head cold that knocks me out for one day and yall blast ahead for seven pages-well done!!

Started back at it today with Match Victorian in the commuter pipe (Briarlee Illustrious), now having me Dark Sails mixture in a Pete Sportsman 87.

A wonderful, cool morning invited me to sit in the sun on the west patio looking out over what's left of the garden and the sheep quietly grazing to enjoy a smoke and some rich black coffee.
Briarworks 10th Anniversary Zulu with HH Burley Flake- perfecto!

Nice acquisition

Thanks! I ran 8 bowls through the Tekin already. Mostly VA and tried it out with a burley. Great little smoker. Shooting for getting that to 12 or so bowls by the end of the day.

Another inaugural bowl...this time an Oriental in a Mehmet Cinar cherrywood shape meer. I really liked the other Cinar, but it's a small sampling billiard and i wanted to try something a little more sizeable from this carver. Very nice in the hand!

I used to smoke these all the time back in the day. This was my go-to motorcycle pit stop smoke. About 10 minutes. For a little longer experience (20-30 mins) i also like Bandidos cigarillos.

I like a lot of the pipes you share, but I really like that one!

It IS a good morning in the PNW! Just popped my first and likely only ever tin of Esoterica Tilbury (2022), and it is DEE-LISH! in a Mastro de Paja 3AL One Sun, with coffee.

So my BST billiard arrived today! This seems to be in keeping with the BST theme a few of you pipers have had rolling in these last two days! Thanks @sasquatch I very much like this simple and well proportioned pipe already! It has such a smooth and open draw. I am smoking some c&d white burley with a little FVF.

Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of pre-2014 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. Just fed everything that looks like a cat.

Steamworks24 in my little lattice tomato meer. Tastes amazing in this little pipe. By far my favorite combo so far for this blend.

Got another litter picking session next Sunday morning at Tesco in Whittington Moor; hoping to meet Lee again. He's got a couple of cans of beer he found while litter picking for me. Booked axe throwing at the Snake Room for 12pm as already in the area. A good idea!
