PS Luxury Bullseye Flake in a MM Twain
Relaxing after a wonderful salad and cheeseburgers dinner with a banana split for dessert. Just opened a tin of year 2001 VaPer Three Nuns and am smoking it in a 1980s White Pipe straight lattice apple meerschaum with an acrylic yellow cream colored saddle stem. Watching Green Acres.
GH&C Kendal Gold Whisky in my new to me estate Arley Curtz pipe I got from @peteguy with a vodka tonic and flask of Dalmore Gran Reserva Scotch:
I like Kendal Gold but this is my first time trying the whisky version. Can't tell which I prefer right now. Guess I'll have to smoke some more!
The pipe is performing very well. I really like the button on it. Nice and pronounced but not sharp. Perfect for clenching or not. I can't tell if the pipe is very nicely waxed or it was just sanded and finished super smooth but it feels good. Nice thick chamber walls on it too!

Tonight, I am closing the day with some Half & Half in a Savinelli Porto Cervo rusticated 404 Zulu. 
McClelland Blackwoods Flake from November 2009 in a Peterson Dublin
Some Oriental Silk in a GBD saddle bit billiard
Last pipe tonight is GL Pease Maltese Falcon. MF is one of my favorite English blends but I have smoked any in a really long time. Listening to The James Hunter souls band. Awesome old school soul vibe.
A freshly sliced chunk of GH&Co Rum Twist.
CRF with Perique in a Peterson System Spigot 314
Now smoking year 2001 VaPer Three Nuns in a 2018 smooth straight flame grain Basil Meadows Merchant Service "Bing" replica with an aluminum band and black ebonite stem.
Carolina Red Flake with perique in a Castello sea rock billiard KK.
SG Best Brown from my Peterson Aboriginal red African Meer System 303.
Firing up a bowl of Presbyterian Match in an Apple MM Cob /w blu/whte swirl Forever Stem
Erinmore Flake in a Peterson Newgrange Spigot 107
Had a mediocre slice of store bought banana cream pie (I should have known better), and am now smoking Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut in a 2016 Peretti's M.T. Natural made in Holland straight smooth brown Algerian briar billiard with a black acrylic tapered stem. Going to clean a few pipes soon.
Smoking Rum Flake in a Peterson. Enjoyed a fine dinner or ham. Homemade mac and cheese, baked beans, and potato salad on the side. Now having black coffee on the front porch.
3 yr old Lizzie in an MM.View attachment 25951
Yeah, I think I prefer a slightly older Dunhill tin than the new new Peterson stuff.
Agreed! After I finish my stock of Dunhill Elizabethan...I’ll likely buy the Victorian Match from Sutliff. I’ve heard good things.
