Finishing with a bowl of C&D Longevity II in a Dunhill Bruyere. Drinking Red Rose iced tea.
Esoterica Stonehaven would fit that bill if you can beg, borrow or sell your first born child for it!First Churchwarden came: it’s a Stanwell with a standard stem as well. Enjoying some hh burley flake. I’d love to find a blend with a touch more molasses/sweetness on it, but the earthy nuttiness really satisfies.
I don't own a clay, but you made me curious. What clay would you use for ODF? Maybe something from Old Dominion/Missouri Meerschaum?@daniel7 This fellow pipe smoking Daniel thinks that flake looks delicious; it looks like it would go down well in a clay pipe
Ah! So that's what Mr. Simpson did with his 122 thousand miles of string, which due to bad planning, was all cut into 1" lengths...2008 GLP Westminster in my Savinelli Tre Rusticated 104
‘Baccy gifted by @rmbittner. I couldn’t sit on this any longer and you only live once, so why not open it up? Glad I did. It’s so damn good. Deep and smooth and rich and leathery.
And, yes, that is a bit of twine that came gratis in the tin. No, I didn’t pack that in the bowl.

The El Rincon is really nice! After a spicy hot start (trying to light in this wind was tricky) it was unlike anything else. Once it settled down, very smooth and interesting in good way!New tobacco in a new pipe! Ropp bulldog with Rincon de la Pipa No.1...that is to say: an English-shape pipe made in France, with a Spanish tobacco blend made in America...(while I try to keep my hat on in my screen porch with a howling gale coming down from Canada).

This is a new 'Superior Algerian' with tapered vulcanite stem, which is flashing into surface oxidation with the slightest provocations..!
I’ve got some margate and a couple ozs of Penzance I can, hopefully, barter with someday. Thanks for the recommendation!Esoterica Stonehaven would fit that bill if you can beg, borrow or sell your first born child for it!
