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

[quietlife]

A test run on my new Estate Bjarne. I had not read in advance the confusing origin of these pipes but on its trial run it seems to be a good smoker. I liked the look and I supose you cant be picky these days for 80 bucks delivered. If anyone has any info on this pipe it would be great. Either way I will smoke it!

May I know you like the johan cotton’s double pressed virgina comparing with the Union square?

I love Union Square. The John Cotton double-pressed Virginia is just starting to grow on me. Not sure whether it's the extra year of aging or my improving smoking technique.

Wilke Rumcake for breakfast in a favorite pipe of mine, an old Stanwell from the 40’s…. plus coffee

Skiff mix in the old Duke Grabow. Anything less would be uncivilized.

Finally getting around to the 1930’s Kaywoodie 7204 Suntan Rock Ambera I cleaned up. Interestingly the short saddle stem has no black clover (nor an inlay spot for such), and the stampings are all there, but need an FBI crime lab style light setup to be seen.
Halfway through a bowl of Phantom Privateer (BACK6), which I found to be rather anti-climactic. I need to try it in a well broken in bowl perhaps-this one’s completely clean after “restoration”.

First bowl in new Lorenzetti Nero, Nutty Irishman and matching tool belt, apparently. I've grown quite found of this pipe in the 14 hours I've owned it. My only complaint about the 9 mil filter being a poor fit and rattling around in there ceased being an issue 5 minutes into smoking. I suppose the paper filter housing swelled up in there. Looks like the looseness is a feature, not a bug. I knew that.

Sounds like I should give the JC’s a try. Thanks for the comment!

Recovering after an amazing night of bagpipes and Celtic music with a healthy dose of Dunhill Standard Mixture in the ODA Canadian.

Merry Monk in a Satou. This pipe is light as a feather.

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. Fed Sleepy Suzy and Molly Danger, and am watching Mad Dog Russo. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Who cares about weight when a pipe is as pretty as that one.
You could smoke that in a polyester leisure suit in flip flops and still be styling!

Pork butts are smoking nicely and I'm smoking some of JM Boswell's Private Stock VaPer in a Savinelli Dolomiti 311KS.
