Mon fumoir

[Tship]

Bonjour à tous
Voilà, de mon petit coin de Belgique, je me suis fait MON endroit pour déguster mon tabac préféré, ce n'est pas par chauvinisme, mais je fume un tabac naturel du terroir ardennais.(Belge)
c'est le SEMOIS de chez Vincent Manil.
Avec cela un bon rhum des îles
Que demander de plus...

Bonjour and g'day from Australia, I love the natural flavour of Semois. It's the closest thing you'll get to tasting like a cigar in a pipe, even cigars don't taste like cigars in a pipe. I see you like a large pipe from the photo, I've got a few but I don't get the time to smoke a full one these days.

Welcome Tship. You might want to post in English as most of our members will not speak your language.


Cheers,

thank you Google Translate.

Hello everyone
Here, from my little corner of Belgium, I made myself MY place to taste my favorite tobacco, it's not out of chauvinism, but I smoke a natural tobacco from the Ardennes region. (Belgian)
it's the SEMOIS from Vincent Manil.
With that a good island rum
What more...

So, what I think you're saying there is: I prefer smooth pipes. Welcome.

Belgium is a nice little country, or it was when I was there back in the 70s. Showed an innkeeper there a photo of my lifted Ford pickup. He asked about the mileage. I told him I got maybe 10/12 mpg. He was somewhat aghast as petrol in Europe at that time was almost $2 US per liter as I remember. Lol.

hello, I admit that I have a small preference for smooth ones....
and if it's a beautiful Italian ... I crack.

yes it's true, I had the opportunity to travel in oil producing countries and only see big pickups, here in our small country the fuel is now well above $2. and we drive in small cars.
but we have over 500 beers at reasonable prices.
drink or drive, you have to choose.

Yes, and I've always enjoyed the various Belgium beers, including and especially the sours and Monastic ales.

hello, I had to find a solution because my shoe box was too small. so I fired my wife's spices and restored the furniture to make it a showcase... but it wasn't enough, so I put my handyman skills to make another one. I don't know when it will end....lol

Lovely pipe collection there Tship and very nice cupboards to store them in.

 

[Wet Dottle]

Dude, that's a great collection and a great idea to display your pipes. Welcome to the forum.
