I wanna see the pipe! Regina Scarlatta makes some very cool pipes, IMO.

HH Va in one of my Ziggywm Benchmade pipes. Love this Va. My drink is Teacher's.
Whole leaf blend. Ky per or flake.
45% kentucky
40% oriental
15% perique
Pressed stoved the plug for a few hours. Became a nice dark colour. Surprisingly sweet for a Virginia free blend. The Kentucky is mellowed from the stoving and paired with the fruit notes of the perique, it becomes more chocolatey at first and then more earthy. The orientals are very fragrant and musty off the start but mellow into more leather, wood, incense and some cinnamon/cumin notes for the rest of the smoke. The perique butters them up a bit. Good strength, a nice spice and smokes at a very relaxed pace.
Through a vauen sandblast billiard p lip stem.

Good night folks, Nightcap in a Dracula.
This is a great smoke, I'm tempted to pick up a lb for storage.
Klondike Gold in a 1930’s Primalla
SG KC Flake in this monstrosity of a Molina. Still trying to figure out what came over me when I got it. So I figured if I'm going to ghost a pipe, might as well be this one.
Amphora Burley in a Greek-made Amadeus smooth straight pot, the classic cylindrical shape with thick bowl walls; this is a sturdy blend for burley smokers. The stamp on this pipe has always been partial, so I had to look up the spelling, just like Mozart's middle name.
Vauen copied that design with their Quix pipe, very similar.
Now smoking D&R Ryback in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem. Time for my last set of walking reps.
Super slow break in with a little help from a friend....60's Half&Half in a 1897 Barlings Billiard.
Earlier I had some Golden Extra in Wilmer, not had much of a chance to find out anything about this brand but it’s got lovely grain.
I’m almost done with Charatan Rolls in the Longchamp Bulldog after some nice Chicken in a Marsala wine and mushroom sauce for dinner.
Dessert is going to be a bowl of Maple St in the new Jima pipe and that’ll do it for me.

GH Coniston Cut Plug in a Sav 673 Lime
2013 Condor Plug in a Gen 1.5 Kirsten.
First taste of G&H Kendal #7 Shag courtesy of @BROBS as inaugural smoke in a eagle meerschaum bowl in a Falcon. Good stuff all around!
Beautiful Barling
