Great pic, I’ve heard somewhere that Sutliff SPS22 was very similar, but have yet to try the Optimum.
2016 GL Pease Sextant in a 60’s Shell.
Even though I don’t own one yet, I love the look of the Porto Cervo.Although I'm well north of the fires, the wind has been a pain for the last week or so, finally subsiding yesterday. Had my first smoke since last weekend, Mac Baren Navy Flake in a Savinelli Porto Cervo 122 rusticated pot. Wifey even joined me, which was admirable considering my lopsided Scrabble victory over her this afternoon (we have surprisingly cutthroat matches!). 8/10

One more before calling it a night. Vauen VA Flake No14 in the Boswell.
HU night owl in an Old Antiquari kkkk Castello because of the nighttime.
After dinner, got a fire going in the shop stove, poured a wee dram of anCnoc 18yr and filled a bowl of burley in a Baki meer. Ready for some quality relaxation time...
Now smoking Brebbia Balkan in a Northern Briars. This is my favorite full Latakia blend. Can’t wait til my tins age 5+ years. I’m stocked up due to the recent Mac Baren situation. I feel no need to find an older Syrian version.
Haunted Bookshop for the drive home earlier today. Enjoying some Midnight Moxie in a Pete.
@Roach1 do you notice a big difference between HB cake and regular HB?

MacB Stockton ‘24 in a Peterson Newgrange. Glad I picked up two tins of this stuff. 
Cornell & Diehl Palmetto Balkan 2024 in a Dunhill Millennium Shell from 2000. This is my regular use Latakia pipe, but I cleaned it yesterday and today
2019 St Bernard Flake in my Yeti paneled egg. Not yet sick of this pipe.
Beautiful pipe. Hard to believe it's 100 years old.
CRF w/P with a bit of Exclusive added to make a full bowl in a Peterson Derry 69.
The next pipe is a 1911 cased Albert and Co stubby straight Bulldog with a tapered block amber stem, orific bit
