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

[Hillcrest]

Another full bowl of Sutliff 507-C in the Pete Pub. Sublime ! The Blitz 9mm filters fit the Pete pub perfectly and there is no discernible reduction in airflow, in fact, its as if its not there at all. There is no effect or reduction of taste either. My preference was for Peterson filters but these may change that preference and they are easier to get. Also Toyota Camry cup holders hold a large pipe securely as is.

Not to be a enabler, but C&D’s on sale (of course right after I spent my tobak money for a minute…

Oh, you're all good

I did go ahead and get a pound of Exclusive

This is a second Celebi pipe. After trying out a lower priced model previously, I decided to give one of their higher end pipes a go. This deep lattice reverse calabash is a looker with the silver trimmings.

First bowl is going to be 2010 Stonehaven.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, cod and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm half way through this bowl of C&D Warped: Scarecrow 2024 in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. Not far from finishing this review. Still watching the Tigers-Guardians game. Ice water and bergs is my drink for now.


Harry the Hairy always comes to the door when we open it, but the past week, he's been sneaking in before we can stop him. I let him roam for a minute before I picked him up, scratched and rubbed his back a little, and then put him back out. I'm just glad that Molly Danger didn't see him.

Do you have/know any info on Withcombes?

How bout you too @Ahi Ka ?

hmm

Check my Help With Hallmarks thread in the British Pipes sub forum. Pretty good Withcombe’s discussion there.

It’s been a rough week. Enjoying my first bowl since Sunday. Enjoying a bowl of Sutliff Maple Street in my Boswell pipe.

 

[Ted Vig]

Smoking some 965 in a Lewis pipe. Thinking about my friend Rich Lewis while I smoke it. I miss that guy.

 

[tfdickson]

Red Flake in my BST oval shank billiard.

Great looking Bay

Thanks! I really think he should do more blasts. I’ve not seen one from him quite like this before. There are a few nice blasted billiards right now at SPC, pretty affordable too.

Spicy like hot sauce. I’m going to jar 2 ounces of this a put it away, I think it will be nice in a few years.

Vauen No 14 in an Altinay.

 

[emac.917]

Bill Bailey’s Balkan Blend in the Stanwell 190.

She’s pretty and a fine smoker, but I still would love to get my hands on a Danish-made 190 to compare.

 

[Ben.R.C]

Perhaps my last smoke of the day. Chenet’s cake in a doctors egg.

 

[abecox]

Earlier I mowed the lawn and then had a bowl of G&H Kendal Gold in a Stanwell. Nice blend for sitting in the fresh cut. Gonna see how it grows on me.
