MM Diplomat stuffed with Three Nuns.
My first time with this blend, very unique stuff.
The only way I can describe this blend is like smoking a cinnamon roll. Sweet, bready with pronounced cinnamon and baking spices. There is a bit of hay in the top half of the bowl, but this soon disappears, and the sweetness becomes darker with slight hints of raisins and molasses.
I really enjoyed this blend and will smoke it the rest of the week and put it through its paces.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, cod and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've a third of a bowl left of Sutliff The Old Boss 175th Anniversary Blend in a 1986 three quarter bend Bacchus face CAO meer with a tapered dark tortoise shell colored acrylic stem. It goes on sale April 23 at 6 p.m. EST. Still deciding on one particular aspect of this blend. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching the Braves-Rangers game.

Cult BRM in a La Rocca Due bent billiard (excellent smoke, 9.4/10), while psyching myself up for visiting the meshugenah in-laws tomorrow for Passover. :eek: cray 😭 🤮 :ROFLMAO:

Don't worry, that's the normal gamut of emotions right there. Nothing to see here! 😬

Bird report: House finch, California towhee, California scrub-jay, Steller's jay, Common raven, Northern flicker, White-crowned sparrow, Band-tailed pigeon, Mountain chickadee, California quail, Western bluebird, Hairy woodpecker, and Anna's hummingbird.

Wish me luck...

I have that exact pipe, it was the second pipe I owned. My friend's dad gave it to me when I was 15 (things were different back then). It had a broken stem, but the local tobacconist replaced it with another amber stem, and I continue to smoke it to this day.
