Busy Saturday here. I worked this morning then walked/jogged a few miles. Delicious Americanized Greek food for lunch. Now I’m relaxing with a nice glass of water and a bowl of Boswell’s English Biscuit in my Nording 506. Sprout is keeping me company.
Half way through this bowl of year 2021 Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Evening Flake in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson Ebony POTY 4AB No. 422/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Just finished cleaning a few pipes.
Earlier, it was The Prince in this Bjarne

GLP Ellipsis Flake in a Castello Old Antiquari 65
Yard work is done, about to soak in the hot tub with some Magic Toast.
Another cigar while sitting in the backyard. Oliva Rounds 96 rated. After a month in the humidor, it now looks like a Melanio and tastes like a Melanio
HU Dark Moor in a Peterson SH Squire and Diet Coke on the side
Now smoking year 2020 Pfeifen Huber Virginia Golden Flake in a 1938 smooth straight brown patent Dunhill R 115 bowling ball apple with a tapered cumberland stem. Sleepy Suzy is still by my side. Abner the Eager has been snoozin' on m'lady's chair for a while. Harry the Hairy has been snoozin' on the couch. The two have been outside all day.
Some Exclusive with 5 brothers in a devil Anse. These two tobaccos together really are good. 
First smoke of my new Castello billiard. Decided on another first, Ellipsis Flake. The first impression of my unrefined palate is that this tobacco reminds me a lot, in both flavor and tin aroma, of Sunbear. Minus the honey. That's a good thing, as I love Sunbear! Delicious creamy tobacco.
Harp lager on the side.

Rubbed out half a tin of SG Best Brown Flake this morning. Been burning though it in a Savinelli Tortuga.

I'll second this opinion. It's much more complex than a straight Virginia Flake. Sunbear minus honey is dang close.
C&D SOTE in a Charatans Make.
Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of first production Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a straight smooth brown Algerian briar family era Barling’s Make Billiard 6 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. The stampings suggest 1930s, but the “6” is a previously unknown stamp number and placement. This pipe is from the estate of David Cuneo. The Braves-Pirates game is in the 11h inning. Tomato the Brave came in to eat, and Abner the Eager wanted out.
WCC FUSTG in a Kaywoodie Super Grain 42.
Halfway through my first bowl of Ryback +P in the Savinelli Tre 104. I’m enjoying it so far.
Ellipsis in a Baldi. First time with this was fresh out the tin and it was a solid meh. This time with a couple hours to dry the flavors have popped and I’m loving it.
