Hello, fellow pipers.
I’ve been a member of a couple Facebook pipe groups, and a fellow member steered me this direction.

For the sake introduction, I smoke primarily Virginia flakes, and at the top of my list is Orlik Golden Sliced Union Square and Capstan Navy Flake. Currently smoking a bowl of Orlik in my 60’s Grabow Omega.

What are you smoking?

Hey from N.C. I went to journalism school at UMo. in Columbia my last two years of college. I did a summer newspaper internship in Neosho. My wife was born in Missouri up near the Iowa line and the Miss. River, and i met her in journalism school and we married much later in our sixties after I was a widower for ten years. She still owns the family farm in her little town which now has only about 14 people, though it is still on the map.

I’m unfamiliar with that blend. What do you like about it?

I’m on the lookout for a meerschaum like that. Never owned one. It’s about time!
Re: the blend. It's a unique burley varietal from Belgium. It's a small (one man?) Operation. Uncased and very flavorful. You can read more about it (and some reviews) here:

I love this little Meer. I only own this one (so far) but if you're shopping for one, I can say that Altinay produces a quality pipe at a reasonable price. And shipping was effortless, from order to delivery (Turkey to California) in less than a week.
@Said.ALTINAY is a member on this forum, too. Here's a link to their site:
