Ken Byron Ventures Sakura in a Butz Choquin handmade panel billiard-ish that I got from @BROBS This pipe is large but light. Could be clenched but is also very comfortable in the hand. Sakura is a good match for this pipe. Very delicious. Will order more when it is released again. Drink is a gin based using an Irish gin that has rose petals, some rose liqueur and fresh lime juice. Very refreshing on this very hot day and a good match for the Sakura. D2EA078D-98B7-4F0E-9A26-8A510657EEA7.jpeg

In anticipation of another HU Tobacco order, I cracked a tin of Directors Cut. I have read mixed opinions, most love it but some don’t. I really enjoyed it. This was one of the few blends I have smoked that actually tasted better the harder I puffed, especially the last third. This VaPer is definitely top-notch, and in my opinion will only get better with age. Now the long wait starts until my order arrives.
You caved and put in the order! Good for you - I bet you'll enjoy those HU blends. I talked myself out of ordering any (again). Damn my scruples. :oops: :ROFLMAO:

Back to my tobacco and pipe comfort zone...Condor in a Falcon. Not only my favourite combination but I can drop the pipe without having heart failure!!

I did cave from the pressure ?. I was an idiot and logged in just to check the tobaccos. Then found a bunch that were cheaper there than in the US. Filled my cart, then started adding HU tobaccos, ones I’ve already had and new ones. Then deleted the cheaper tobaccos I could get in the US and added a bunch of the flakes to round out the order. This was over a three day period, then I smoked a few bowls of HU and decided to place the order today. After this I should be good with HU ?.

Just finished an exceptionally fun Zoom chat. I smoked:
year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. The fella who gifted me the pipe was in on the chat.

Ken Byron Ventures Yoshimi’s Out Shine in a brown straight smooth Paul Perri billiard with a black acrylic tapered stem. The fella who gifted me the pipe as in on the chat.

Now, I'm part way through this bowl of year 2010 STG Schippers in a 1977 straight black rusticated Sir Brent 253 billiard with a silver band repair and a brown pearl grey acrylic tapered stem. Going to get my last set of walking reps in before dinner time.
