Stubby little nosewarmer with some Mix79
Wilke 911 a nice blend with Latakia, so smooth In a gentleman cob. 
Whole leaf blend. Black kentucky twist.
75% kentucky
25% red and bright virginia
Twisted up and stoved until it was nice and black. About 16 hours.
This one's just as you imagine it, stout, smooth, earthy and dark. A little soft sweetness, cream and fruit from the virginias, but only enough to ensure you don't get completely knocked on your ass haha.
In a 7" tavern clay, now that's an old school smoke!

2010 Beacon Extra in my V&N oval shank billiard.
Peterson: 3 P's - Peterson's Perfect Plug in a Meer...
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, big filet mignon, mushrooms and green beans dinner with a quarter of Boston Creme Pie for dessert. I'm smoking KBV Merchant Service Kellem’s Mixture in a 1987 medium brown Peterson first series Sherlock Holmes full bend with a silver band and a black vulcanite tapered p-lip stem. I'm working on a review of this blend. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Watching the Padres-Dodgers game.
Samuel Gawith 1792 Flake in a Sasieni Four Dot Hurlingham S
Your supremely elegant pipe reminded me of some of my similar examples ... as you can see I'm also a fan:-
etc.
When the lilacs start to bloom...
St James Flake in a Castello Collection 55.
Was thinking of our Scottish puffer, when I watched this last night.
If that’s real Scottish wit/humor, I really enjoyed it.
12 seconds scene; ‘Didn’t know Mel Gibson was having a yard sale. LOL

Enjoying an evening bowl of Union Square in a Savinelli 313 prince sitting by the newly installed propane fire pit/table in the backyard. Going to be a great summer.
Almost a third of the way through this bowl of Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth straight late ‘50s, early 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad.
Keeping with my usual rotation for English blends this month. Mostly old Brighams and Petersons for the English stuff for me.
Gawith Hoggarth Dark Birds Eye 2016 in a London Made Peterson.
Savinelli Regimental. Loaded with Dr. Sexton’s favorite, Telescopes. Toasted cavendish plays with burley and a hint of nougat punctuates the fire roasted Virginias. It is as American a smoke as one needs here in the southern American desert in my oasis of palms, pools, and pipe shops.
Match Nightcap in a Molina churchwarden. I packed two bowls in a row into the same pipe. I live on the edge.
D&R Ryback in a Tilshead Bulldog.
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of Watch City Simply VOriental in an undated straight smooth medium brown Wilshire 5 bulldog (Comoy’s second) made for John’s Pipe Shop in Los Angeles with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Padres and Dodgers game is in the 11th.
