    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Finished off that bowl of Legend Hudson’s Bay I started earlier while walking my dog and I just did a charring light of some Plum Pudding Special Reserve in my Vauen Country 466 with dimple rustication and straight tapered acrylic stem and 9mm filter. This is one of those delayed gratification...

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    I haven’t been posting smokes over the weekend. It was really busy. This morning I enjoyed a bowl of Haunted Bookshop in my Vauen Dr. Perl straight black sandblast billiard with acrylic stem and 9mm filter. Right now I’m smoking some Legend Hudson’s Bay in my Vauen 9001 straight mostly...

    Natural American Spirit Pipe Tobacco

    I have put that exact tobacco in a pipe and smoked it. The flavour is pretty good and uncomplicated of course. It’s different in a pipe when tasted as opposed to inhaled. I think the inhaling part ruins all flavour of tobacco. I still buy a brand called CNT Organic RYO here in Canada and it...

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    First smoke of the day in my Vauen Dr. Perl 4284 M straight black sandblast billiard with replacement fishtail tapered acrylic stem from a Vauen Verde series pipe and 3mm filter adapter. I made pork tamales for the first time this morning and smashed it out of the park! No wonder no one this...

    Autumn Evening in my Vauen Verde 3793 with 3mm adapter. I watched the northern lights over my place tonight for about an hour.

    Aurora…

    Wow! I feel so lucky. I just spent about an hour outside watching this, too. A friend told my partner it was over their place about an hour south of us. I wonder if it was here all night. I took a pipe out with some Autumn Evening to watch the lights.

    Aurora…

    Wow, that’s completely amazing. I have rarely seen the aurora boreal is and never when it was that strong.

    That sounds familiar. It is probably less rural here than you are. I don’t think we’d have tagged problem bears released so close. My property backs onto a large section of forest where the bears come out of on well established paths. In the fall they come to feast on the wild apples growing...

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Haunted Bookshop in my Tekin surface teardrop lattice bent Dublin with acrylic stem. It’s my first smoke of the day.

    Tobacco Sampler Selection?

    🤣He always likes to say he’s not a tobacco snob. He also doesn’t like nicotine. I think he pops a tin sometimes, smokes a bowl and sets that tin aside. Then he comes back to that same totally dried out tin ten years later to fill one of his old Custombilts and make a YouTube video. What a great...

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Latest release From Beyond in my Tekin lazy lattice bent Dublin with chunky acrylic stem . Speaking of chunky, that bear I saw this morning was a mama bear and it has two cubs so I’m not going too close to the forest for my dog’s evening walk. I came across one of her turds and its diameter...

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Haunted Bookshop in my Tekin lazy lattice bent Dublin meerschaum with acrylic stem. Yesterday I posted my morning smoke in my Vauen Nest with a 9mm filter but when I went to clean it later I found my 3mm adapter in there. There is a giant black bear in the field today so short walk for me...

    Welcome from BC, Canada. Sorry to hear about your problem to obtain tobacco. It‘s a shame since some of the most wonderful pipes in the world come from your country.

    Mr. B’s English Mix in my Vauen Nest rusticated straight billiard with acrylic stem and 9mm filter. I haven’t had this blend in a while and I forgot how good it is. I read a review that says it is Sutliff Medium English.

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Going out of town for work today. I am half way through a bowl of Haunted Bookshop in my Vauen Dr. Perl 4284 M with my Vauen Cambridge 192 in the pipe bag ready to go with some Orlik Golden sliced from 2019. The other pipe is my Vauen Royal 564 for some Big n’ Burley for the drive home. I...

    Thanks, man. The other old Andreas Bauer meerschaum I have has a similarly pale coloured stem but it has more transparent and yellow in it compared to this one that seems to have only yellow and white.
