I have way too many open jars of tobacco. Some tobacco just never did anything for me. I decided to try to smoke through jars until completion. This leads me to this blend. I bought Capstan because everyone who like Virginias raves about it. Well fresh, I didn’t feel it was that great to buy multiples. Flash forward two years and this think is quite good. I am seriously considering sticking up now for two years down the road.

On to some Winchester in the 102 Short Army, watching a random good boy playing…

Good morning! Cowboy Coffee in a Pete 606 Short Army Pot P-lip, and first mug of coffee
That's a beaut! Looks like very clean execution.
Does anyone else hate painting?
Taking a break from painting my main hallway while hoping the paint match blends in so I don't waste 2 days cutting it in.
Changing to C&D Night Train in another IMP and more coffee.

Thanks Doc, looking forward to it myself!
Going to have Savinelli 140° (1358/2800) in a Savinelli Meerschaum Bent Billiard with a bone tenon and what seems to be a Bakelite stem (slotted, not orific). I’m very excited about this recent acquisition. This pipe originates from the original Savinelli shop in Milan on Via Orefici 2 near the Piazza Duomo (where it still operates).
It has a fitted snakeskin case marked “Schiuma Vera” (Real Foam—Meerschaum).
I’m guessing this might be from the 1930s or ’40s, before the 1948 factory opened.
*Very special thanks to @JOHN72 for helping me get this pipe from Italy to Spain, to the USA, because the seller couldn’t figure out the customs forms to send to the United States.

A third of a bowl left of pre-2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
