Finishing the day with a bowl of HH Burley Flake into a Cobbit .
Hello good people!
John Aylesbury 777 in the collectible annual pipe of the Greek pipe club, year 2018.
Have a nice weekend everybody, I will try to rest, the past week was hard in work (not only for me as I read in other posts... I don't know if that is a comfort...). But let's enjoy the moments, that's the big secret I guess. Pipe smokers may know a bit more about this secret, and that is (in a way) a blessing.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am part way through this bowl of Mac Baren HH Burley Flake in a 1979 Loewe Army smooth straight dark brown billiard with a silver cap military mount and a tapered black vulcanite stem. I may end the day with this smoke.
Tonight was dedicated to Bengal Slices (White) from a Savinelli 316. It was just fantastic.
Smoking a bowl of Germains Brown Flake in a Savinelli 315KS with my morning coffee
That's a morning well spent. I am becoming increasingly curious about the Germain blends. I don't think I have ever even seen them over here.
Good morning folks. We opened a new tin. Smoking now. I wish you a happy Saturday,guys........![IMG_2216[1415].jpg](https://pipesmagazine.com/forums/data/attachments/73/73491-13a33c62317b4e07473584836948fcec.jpg "IMG_2216[1415].jpg")
Good morning everyone, I just took delivery of a few new (to me) blends.
I have some GH Dark Flake Aromatic drying out (smells like Turkish Delight candy), some more 3p’s and what I’m trying now, Solani Aged Burley Flake. This is a very different blend than I’m used to, I’ll need a couple more bowls in other pipes but it’s changed taste about three times so far in this bowl. I’m at the bottom now and I’m getting a sour fermented flavour that I can’t put my finger on. It’s not unpleasant just a very different experience for me.
I got a sample of these little cigarillos too, had one with my coffee first thing, not bad but nothing to write home about.

Close to finishing this bowl of Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 1984 medium bend black grain etched Savinelli Non Pareil 9310 poker with a horn ferrule and a black vulcanite saddle stem. Chatting with a friend.
Good morning All
My first bowl of Cornell and Diehl Black Frigate in a Savinelli Spring 673. Very enjoyable and reminiscent of a cross between Nightcap and Squadron Leader, sadly I can’t detect any rum. Saving my Blakemar Briars King’s Imperial Apple for later in the day. Gardening chores beckons and I must keep the “entertainment committee” aka the wife happy!
I hope you all have a relaxing weekend.
Happy smokes.

Good morning folks, Early morning pipe in a Rattray's.
Just finished a bowl of Best Brown Flake in this P. Jeppesen tomato. Dried figs and raisins in the tin. I can definitely taste the bread and spice mentioned in JimInks excellent review, while not overly sweet it has a marzipan like sweetness. There's also the musky character I relate to in Squadron Leader, maybe it's just in my head. I usually don't smoke in the morning but the sun is starting to bring some heat and the budding spring made it a most pleasurable smoke. Great blend. Happy Easter everyone.

Firing up some Hamborger Veermaster in a Sasieni Two Dot Billiard and getting ready to drive 7 1/2 to a fire scene. Long day. Plenty of pipes and baccy after this one.
We continue enjoying with. C&D Sansepolcro in corn pipe Carolina Gent and cup red wine........................
Starting today off with Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a Kaywoodie White Briar Squat Bulldog shape 98B. Coffee to pair.
Cup O’ Joe’s Anniversary No. 23 in a pre-Republic Peterson
Just smoked my first bowl of HU Janneman Virginia perique Flake my first impression is that it is quite nice, tasted like many similar German Flakes made by KKopp burns quite quickly. Drinking a cuppa Tea. The fun thing with this blend is that it comes in one long flake curled around the inside of the paint tin.
Good afternoon folks, Skiff mix in a Dr. Plumb.
