Yea, having this much down time might sound like a dream to some but really it just makes life feel like a huge lump of dottle after a while.

Not yet, Sakura was the only one so far.
Ah ok, have you tried or are a fan of that Cult Blood Moon .org eh Steve right it’s called? Not sure if I’m brave enough to go down the cherry red road yet...
That one I like. Bought up a bunch of it about five years ago when P&C had it on sale for $5. No need to be scared of it, though if you've only been smoking for a year or two, I wouldn't worry about flavored blends yet.
The labels really show that the Byron is in touch with the pipe smoking culture. I'm always improvising jar labels by cutting out the little sticker than comes on the ziplock bags of bulk, or doing fancier type faces on my computer, printing them off, and scotch taping them to jars. It's kind of fun, on the one hand, but a chore on the other. I'm doing that today with yesterday's arrivals. Byron is a step ahead in providing a ready label nicely printed. Bravo. I got there too late for the cherry blossom blend, but I sure appreciate knowing about the labels.
What happen to that "no more than $5 an ounce" rule you're always going on about?
With the exception of the aged FVF and Raven's Eye blends, the KBV blends are created by Ken Byron. The Yoshimi blends are co-creations with the lady.
That pipe is so horribly ugly, but yet I can't look away....it's haunting my dreams....
Awesome...and awesome. A volcano reverse calabash full bend sitter. Very Mt. Fuji. ?
He's been on a rule breaking spree lately.
Next I'm expecting him to announce he's dedicated one of his Dunhills to Penzance.
Don't have any more, what I didn't give away I traded for Murray's Three Year Matured Virginia.
Not even a reverse calabash. Bruce called it a tri-cano and Japan has an island volcano with three peaks called Sakurajimi (Cherry Blossom Island), seemed the perfect pipe.
With free shipping included in the price it’s not much more than $5 an oz anyway
