Looooooong day at work. Perfect time for a Plum Pudding in a Peterson and a stout.

I just ordered some Plum Pudding Bourbon Barrel. It sounds like a great match with that Guinness, which is the best Guinness in the opinion of this drinker of Guinness since the early 80s.

The Antwerpen one is a keeper too, if you can find it.

Agreed - and it is fantastic. Really enjoying the Plum Pudding with this version of Guinness. So much flavor.

A bowl of well-dried Walter Raleigh Aromatic in a MM Missouri Pride cob. This is one of those codger blends that I have a fondness for, both for its bag nite, and that it was my Uncle Charlie’s favored blend. You probably remember the type of guy he was: smoked only what he could buy at the grocery store or dollar store, in a basket pipe that cost him a couple of dollars, tops. He would, with great good humor, have dismissed almost all of us here for our epicurean collector ways! ;):ROFLMAO:

First time trying this Gawith Hoggarth's Kendal Black Cherry. I'm not an aromatic smoker but I thought I'd try it. Never had a cherry blend either. Enjoying it in one of my "I ain't 'fraid of no ghost" pipes, this Kaywoodie (?) Devonshire. Next time I'll try it with a little Latakia. These tins seem to have what appears to be cardboard pipe stands in them, unless they're made for something else entirely.

Good idea for the cardboard, I never realized that they had a purpose or use.
Ghosting is just not on my agenda, I don't think about it. Maybe I've been lucky & it's not been a problem.
