I haven't been to this thread in a long time and just now ran across the pic of this pipe. Man that looks like a nice pipe! Congratulations.Originally Posted by Bill Riehl
I'm not Irish by any stretch, but I do love a Pete. And you can't have a St. Patty's Day without burning a bowl of something appropriate, so......
and.......15lbs of Luxury Navy Flake for aging purposes!
I don't smoke - Government and health insurance provider says it is bad for me. But if I did smoke - It would be the occasional premium cigar. And among those I would favor:
Gurkha - Cellar Reserves and Evils in the 5x58 and 5x50 sizes
Rocky Patel - Vintage 1992 in the Petite Corona (4.5x44) size - Which I am told is one of the best standard production cigars ever made
My Uzi Weighs a Ton - Bait Fish (4x40) - Which if reviewers by smokers are to be believed is the best cigar made next to the Patel 1992 Petite Corona
-Rob
For the record, I don't smoke either. I appreciate the beauty of briars and the history of 'baccy.
Anyone get any new smokables?
I just landed a new Wiley freehand....and a pound of aromatic english. Pics to follow....maybe with guns, razors, and leather goods as background.
Yes, I recently bought a new bent-stem Luciano and several ounces of 1-Q -- first foray and all that.
Cake is forming nicely and I'm really enjoying it so far.
Yes, I succumbed tonight and bought some Frog Morton, Dunhill Nightcap, Stokkebye Lux Navy Flake, and Dunhill London Mixture. Should be here Thursday-ish.
Nothing like sitting on the back patio with the dog and a pipe.
So I've been spending a lot of time in the woods, and a nice bowl would be good to have by the fire. I've had trouble with tobacco before, so not sure I'll actually do it, but if I do, I'll get this to tote the smoke: http://www.bradleymountain.com/shop/pipe-utility-roll

Heresy! Next you'll be telling us that you don't actually shoot all those purty Wilsons.
That is very cool, thanks for posting that link. I have been looking for something along those lines as a reward for one of my minions.
And I'll have to grab one for myself, of course.
After coming home from a nice dinner with my wife, we sat out on the back patio and watched the sunset. I had my Missouri Meerschaum with some Tinderbox Sunset Rum tobacco, and a homemade daiquiri (rum, cut and squeezed key limes, ice and sugar). We watched the sun go down while my pipe smoke kept the monsoon-brought flying bugs away.
