Now smoking year 2012 Butera Pelican in a 1970s slight bend black sandblasted English Rustic 120S Billiard (Comoy’s second) with a black vulcanite saddle stem. This pipe originally belonged to my college art mentor, the late professor Walter Barker. Gave Molly Danger some play time before I took her to the bedroom. I'll let Harry the Hairy in after I post this smoke.

Now smoking year 2019 Prince Albert in a 2020 smooth light brown, slight bent J. Everett straight grain chubby author with a spalted birch ferrule and a black saddle vulcanite stem in the military mount style. Still have some left in the tub. The lid on this tub sure has kept this tobacco fresh over the years. Harry the Hairy is a tad out of sorts because he's bored.

Near the first third of this bowl of year 2021 KBV Your Welcome in a straight smooth dark brown 1930s (Comoy’s) Canadian Club 230 eight paneled billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. I'll end the day with this smoke. Fed all the ferals, and Daisy the Feral Princess stayed inside to get attention from yours truly. Sleepy Suzy was not thrilled by that, but I made it up to her with some head and back scratching. She's very forgiving that way.

Stanislaw Scottish Autumn Flake is a straight Virginia flake featuring natural sweetness from long pressing. It smokes cool and slowly, great on its own or for blending. Originally released as part of the limited Four Seasons series in collaboration with Samuel Gawith and DTM, it’s now produced and sold independently under the Stanislaw brand (DTM).

What I’ve been getting is a thick ribbon cut with some small coins. The cut is almost like rubbed out flake but more ribbon.

Not to beat a dead horse, but Paul and @JimInks comments made me go back and dump the entire contents out. I found three small coins in the entire pile. They are at the bottom of the photo.
Also, the consistency of the rest of the contents is rougher than the ribbons from @PaulRVA

So far for me each batch has had less coins each time. My first batch was 50/50 and each subsequent batch has gone down tremendously. The taste is the same but the presentation began to lack visually. I don’t know if the stuff is crosscut or tumbled but I’ve had whats identical to rubbed out flake to almost pure ribbon cut. In any event the Pepsi Challenge results are the same with the smoking quality. Which is 👍 good! It does seem lately that if you found a coin you’d think you won a Golden Ticket from Willy Wonka😂
