I know it’s a little late for this, but I made a particularly good batch of iced coffee (Starbuck’s House Blend, ground a little too fine from the whole bean), so I’m having a highball glass of that with some G.L. Pease Jack Knife Plug, thinly sliced and well rubbed, in a Stanwell 95 Trio (no filter installed for open draw) and watching Perry Mason and The Twilight Zone on MeTV.

Did some snacking, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2014 HU Makhuwa in a straight sandblasted black billiard 2013 PSF POY Kaywoodie with an amber colored lucite tapered stem. Watching From Here To Eternity.
Trying my first bowl of GL Pease's Cairo in a James Upshall Tilshead Billiard.
Very tasty. So far on my 3 day journey through the orient, I've tried Oriental Silk, Embarcadero, and Cairo. I've enjoyed all three, although my second, fully dried bowl of Embarcadero was better than the first. Oriental Silk is just smooth, buttery, slightly spicy goodness. Embarcadero and Cairo are somewhat similar, but seem to offer the same ingredients in different proportions. I can see myself stocking up on all of these. Sunday Picnic is next.
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and my last smoke of the day is the very dry year 2015 D&R A.P. Rimboche in a smooth medium brown, medium bend 1950s B.B.B. Own Make 307 apple with a sterling silver band and black vulcanite saddle stem.

This is the 3rd or possibly 4 day of of exclusively Escudo for me, many regrets for not picking up tins earlier.
I’ve got some nice aged Escudo for sale in the FS threads if you’re interested.
