***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2022?***

[ThermionicScott]

Smoking the very last of my McClelland #2015 in my Big Ben Ranger. Another windy day -- just like with my bike-riding, I'm trying to shift my attitude from annoyance to seeing it as an opportunity to improve my skills.



It's tempting to think "Oh man, I should have bought a lot more of this when I still could!" But when I think back to then, I remember enjoying the aroma and sweet taste, but also scorching my mouth nearly every time with it. I wasn't in a big hurry to buy more...

Remnants of a jar of Exotique Mixture in a patent Dunhill. Early in the day, so it's with a cold mineral water chaser.

Sutliff Revelation Match in a Stanwell. Been smoking this and C&D Epiphany quite a bit over the last few days. Comparing the two, I'll give the nod to Epiphany for being a little spicier and and better burning. Revelation Match is a little sticky, even after a lot of dry time. Both are good though.

Hal O The Wynd in a 1911 Peterson Patent Calabash restored by Ryan Alden. The center piece of the stem is the original Amber. Ryan used stainless to then attach Cumberland.

Dunhill Nightcap in a Meer...

@weezell That's a pipe I'd smoke if it was made of clay

Have about a third of a bowl left of year 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. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

Was offline over the weekend - went to watch my youngest participate in an Ironman 70.3, aka a half Ironman.
To help keep me smokey over the weekend, I had Lane RR, Amphora Virginia, Low Country Natural Virginia, Derringer, and Mac Baren Virginia Flake, in a variety of pipes. Had some Sutliff Medium English along, but was never in the mood for latakia.
Home now, and just finished a bowl of IRC Flake in a Stanwell Trio billiard.

@ThermionicScott Got to try a clay bowl of McClelland yesterday

Smoking Five Brothers in a Peterson Ebony Killarney, drinking a Coke. Swam some laps, getting some things ready to go to Atlanta this week to visit kids and grandkids. Got great seats for Phillie-Braves game this coming Sunday.

Wilke Rum Cake in an I. Baglan Meer.

Smoking now Samuel Gawith, The Kendal Mayor's Collection, Westmorland Mixture. I wonder why, although I bought it years ago, I buried it in the cellar and didn't smoke it till now? I like it. A lot. Will buy it again.
All the best good people!

The sun came out so I took my newly bound clay and sat in the garden under a young cherry tree,
enjoying some of that random farmers choice brick I recently pressed
and looking forward to a few quarts of frosty pilsener in the fridge and Top Gun: Maverick on the screen.
Here's a chance to look at my content mug. Happy smokes, everyone!

@Chaukisch Looks good
I've made a hand carved wooden spoon today.
I'd like to get in touch with Wilson's of Sharrow to see if I can learn how to make some clay pipes

Rusticated Pipe Maker - not the best picture. A fine smoking pipe no the less.

 

[JimInks]

Did a second set of walks right before the storm started, and am close to finishing this bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem. It's pouring now.

Beautiful sunny day. Dropped my daughter off at daycare. Walked the dogs. Heading to work now.
