What is in your pipe? November 2019

Completely switching it up from my usual, Sutliff Mellow Peach in a Legend (earlier)

Picayune / 515 RC mix in a GBD Statesman

Just finished doing some work and this bowl of Dan Tobacco Salty Dogs in a 2002 black pebble finish straight Cavicchi C. Fatto A Mano Billiard and a black acrylic tapered stem. That was a long smoke.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of HU Directors Cut in a smooth straight Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snap green peas dinner with a chocolate covered vanilla bean ice cream bar. Now smoking Ken Byron Ventures Spaghetti Western in a smooth unfinished brown slight bend 2015 Savinelli 320KS author with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

My last pipe of the day was Samuel Gawith St. James Flake (‘14) in a Peterson Killarney bulldog with a vulcanite p-lip stem.

Now smoking early 1970s MacBaren Burley London Blend in a 1981 Ascorti Black Billiard Business with a military bit and pearl gray acrylic tapered stem.

Listing this a few minutes early so I can concentrate on work for a while: Sutliff Walnut Match in an early smooth Radice Tiger Eye G medium bend bulldog with a bamboo-style carving on the shank with a two dot black acrylic stem.

Good evening gents. Smoking SG 1792 Flake in a Savinelli Dolomiti Smooth 320 KS with water on the side.

Did a little snacking and am now smoking Sutliff J4 Burley in a 2001 black sandblasted three quarter bend Rinaldo Lithos YY bulldog with a tortoise shell acrylic saddle stem.

Mysmokingshop Gentlemans Choice.

Started with Rimboche SJ in my Grabow Freehand. I still have some time... so Uhles Perfection Plug (Burley) in the same pipe.

Mornin' gents. Semois in the J Everett quarter bent stack with a cream-colored stem. Espresso. Cool water. Early local news on the tube.

Starting off my smoking day with a bowl of 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. Coffee's brewing on this cold and very rainy day.

Relaxing after a tasty lunch and am part way through this bowl of year 2012 Hamborger Veermaster in a post WW2 Pre-Republic Peterson Dublin straight smooth X155 Bulldog with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite p-lip stem. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of Lane Ready Rubbed/McClelland Samsun in a 2015 Basil Meadows Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica with a smooth straight thin shank, aluminum band and black ebonite stem. A friend made this and sent me a sample. Very tasty.

Part way through this bowl of HU Directors Cut in a smooth straight Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad.

...after a long nap, I'm waking up with a bowl of Esoterica Dunbar in a MM Polished Morgan cob with a blue swirl Forever Stem... cool water to pair...

Now smoking Ken Byron Ventures Burley Morning Pipe in a 1998 smooth medium bend Peterson Limerick 69 with a nickel band with a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
