Mb And Scotch? Oh Yea


GTOZack

Recommended Posts

I love writing my journal entries, brainstorming, and inspirations with my MB149 whilst drinking Glenfiddich's

 

 

the Glenfiddich tastes best with Lane BCA tobacco in a briarwood pipe!

 

anyone go down the same rabbithole as I ?

So we left it at that. He showed us the maneuver after a sort. B*****d stole my kill.'

Somehow I think MB goes with Asbach Uralt.... And Zigarren.

 

 

But what can you do with a MB with that whisky in one hand and the pipe in the other?

We tend more towards bourbon here, but I am part way through a bottle of Balvenie Caribbean Cask that I am really enjoying. No MBs to go with, however, which is fine by me.

The nice thing is all of these three hobbies can be practiced at the same time, enhancing the enjoyment of each other.

I am quite find of single malts and in the past loved my dunhill or ferndown pipes with a nice latakia blend. Unfortunatly i got rid of the pipes and now i have cigars. I currently have 2 bottles of Glenrothes and one bottle of Old pulteney sitting beside the bed under my humidor. I see you do need a proper glass though.

Yum, The Glenrothes, my favourite....

And indeed a proper glass, although I prefer a normal cognac glass. Ideal for warming the whisky. (Ice is for hiding bad taste...)

 

Perhaps Lie du thé is a nice ink to go with that...

My type of subject. :-)

 

Yesterday I enjoyed a nice cigar (in this case aged Cohiba Maduro 5 Genios) after dinner with a friend finishing off a bottle of Altos Las Hormigas Malbec. I would normally pair with a scotch, either a Scapa, Oban or an aged rum such as Flor de Cana 18 (sorry: with ice, but in the Caribbean that is necessary...). As far as the pen to go with this I would in the past have opted for my Montblanc Hemingway with havana brown ink, but regretfully recently sold that pen....

I am pretty partial to cigars and bourbon, but that's probably just Virginia (the bourbon)...

 

Both go well with any writing instrument!

Yes, I do enjoy a good scotch, particularly an Ardbeg with my pens.

Fountain pens are like weapons. They just make your pocket bleed so much.

Well played! I'm in scotch heaven with this thread...'berg, 'froig, now Lag 16...we just keep climbing up the peaty ladder! Someone needs to raise the stakes with a Laphroaig 30 now.

 

The only thing missing is a good cigar ;-)

 

I'd post a pic of a Cohiba with Havana Club Selection de Maestros, but that would be a different thread...and could be used as evidence ;-)

I did enjoy a dram of Balvenie 12 double wood and a dram of Old Pulteney 12 today after playing with my pens.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
