2014 3 Oaks Syrian in my BST Billiard. I was going to smoke this last night but I conked out. This used to be my favorite blend before I lost my love of latakia. It's now soft with a bit of smoke and incense.

Mistakenly, I left a sessions worth of C&D Ismir Turkish overnight. This morning I added equal amounts of Wilke Coronado Oriental thinking it was the same thing. Turned out to be quite enjoyable and happy mistake.

Much appreciated Rusty.
That is a beautiful pipe.

Today is pipe day. I haven't felt like leaving the couch. All guests are gone, house is quiet and clean. Here we are.
Earlier was a bowl of 2013 ODF and now a mix of ODF, BK, and 1792 leftovers. I have no idea the ratio, probably mostly BK. Cheers!
Third time I've smoked this. I almost didn't buy it, mostly because I'm not a big Burley fan, but aged Virginias, Cavendish, and a "spice" topper, what the heck? The first time I tried it was meh, at best.
So I read the reviews, some said "meh", some waxed ecstatic, so, I tried it again yesterday in this Peterson System standard 307. Big difference! Very nice. I find it interesting how much difference there can be between one pipe and another with any particular tobacco. Also, credit the "system" pipe with the extraction of moisture allowing the taste to come through. It has its weaknesses as well as its strengths, but overall the strengths win me over. Love my System pipes.

Just enough time to start a small bowl. Double booked on kids birthday parties today. Ro and I are employing the divide and conquer technique. Have a good Saturday, everyone.

2016 Christmas Cheer topped with 2023 Cob Plug in my J. Everett Pipes "Joswell" Boswell inspired pipe.

A good cigar and whiskey solve most problems.
The Cob plug over Christmas Cheer was also a mistake, I forgot what was still in the bowl. It was okay, not great

Good morning.

Codger scooped some Sutliff (Edgeworth) Ready Rubbed Match into my Altinay PSD 2023 POY.
Finished my cigar, finished the Ready Rubbed (Edgeworth) Match in the meer, then finished the Salty Dogs in the cob.

Thanks for the RB Plug! Sublime smoke...

Glad that it survived the long nap in the cellar, vintage 2010. Imported from a tobacco shop in Switzerland.

Finally feeling well enough to smoke. Hopefully, all goes well with this Sutliffe Stoved Virginia.

Montezuma's Revenge?

Nope just a chest thing.

@Vision you back smoking pipe tobacco??? I hope so!! Enjoy my friend.

Usually only about 4 months a year. I have so much I'll never ever run low at this pace.
Just let me know. 😉
