What Are You Smoking Pages.

[Zeno Marx]

34°, breezy, and clear. Stanwell with new Night Train. A very nice morning smoke. 8/10

Sturdy Papa 359, is that Castello a Pi? It has a lot going on, with the smooth and carved and green stem. Maybe I'm not paying close enough attention to Castello, but it's been a while since I remember seeing a green stemmed Castello. I like colored stems, even when they get on the gaudy side. Not that I find that one gaudy. I'm thinking Ardor here.

Zeno, Today this would be a Pi Castello, but this pipe is pre-1969 and marked Carlo Scotti K31 Trademark. I have a brown Sea Rock Lumberman with a butterscotch stem too. I haven’t smoked it because it’s too dang pretty! Let me know if you want a picture of it.

I just ran across a stash of tins and bulk of 2006 Mac Baren Navy Flake. I can't remember the last time I smoked it, it is damn good. Smoking it in a Rad Davis Billiard.

About a third of the way through this bowl 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. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

2012 Astleys no 44 Dark Flake in a Jack Howell Dublin.

Home from the ranch. Rode the boys for an hour or so. They liked the attention, and the treats at end, lol. Some CS Rivendell in a rarely smoked Sav Big Nine square paneled billiard, a 513KS. Has a tendency to get hot after mid bowl. A quality not shared with any of my other Savs but I guess considering they make thousands of pipes a year getting a less than perfect one is nor that unusual. Oh, hot English black tea on the side.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am almost a third of the way through this bowl of first release Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Lavazza Espresso, neat, is my drink.

 

[JimInks]

Just passing the half way point of this bowl of C&D Yorktown in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Terracotta 4AB No.108/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Reading conflicting testimony about JFK's murder from eyewitnesses. All these years later, it's still hard to know what exactly happened.

 

[Swede]

First bowl of the day is GLP Temple Bar in a Savinelli 815KS.

 

[user 2027]

Decided to kick off the night revisiting the Va/Bur whole leaf plug I pulled last September. Listening to a winter jazz set on Amazon Music for a change.

 

[JimInks]

Not far from finishing this bowl of Sutliff Cringle Flake (Holiday Edition 2022) in a medium bend 2001 Ural lattice Rhodesian with a yellow with white swirls acrylic saddle stem.

 

[Sturdy Papa 359]

Old Yello-Bole did a good job disposing of some bone dry Three Nuns.

 

[Ranger107]

Had a wonderful turkey day dinner provided by the American Legion. Now it's CS Shepherds Pie in a Saseini 4 dot blasted bent pot. Yorkshire tea on the side. Night has fallen and it's very peaceful here on the mountain.

Jim, what is Larry's twilight?

 

[JimInks]

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, steel head trout and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. Staying with diet maintenance so I can pig out on Thanksgiving. I'm half way through this bowl of year 2018 Solani 633 in a straight 1954 patent Dunhill 148 Group 3 black shell bulldog made for the France market with a black saddle vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Jim, what is Larry's twilight?

Coffee. That company makes a lot of excellent blends.

After BBQ, slaw, and beans, I smoked a new blend as Amphora Burley in a cob. I was surprised what a fine burley without toppings. When I read Jimlinks review (2nd) and others said it was a 4 rating. You can't beat it for burleys.

 

[JimInks]

Now smoking year 2016 Newminister 400 Superior Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown year 1948 Parker Super Bruyere patent 23 88/F bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Watching a documentary on George Washington as a young man. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

 

[Sturdy Papa 359]

C&D Night Train in a Savinelli Ricco 321. This is a nice little pipe that you seldom see, but the bowl is too small.

Boswell Military Force in a Peterson 303.
