A rare two pipe day. Cobblestone Mocha Flake in an SMS Lattice bent billiard meer. This was my second bowl of Mocha Flake and it was not nearly as good as the first. Now onto St Bruno flake in a Pete System 305. I really like this blend but would be happier with a little more strength and a little more topping. Good stuff though! Just finished a Heyman’s Old Tom Gin martini. Good but not a favorite.

Haven’t had the flake, but the ready rubbed is pretty damn good.

90 degrees and smokey here in Silicon Valley. Ready to add to it with a bowl of Viprati in a Savinelli Octavia. Could use some of that Gulf Coast rain here!

Will definitely need to pick some up next time I order, which really should be a loooong time from now consider all of the sh*t I purchased this summer (plus and order with Esoterica inbound and Estervals just cleared customs...see if it shows up.) but the reality is it will probably be soon, lol.

I think the RR may have a bit more topping.

Whoever said a Sunday was for relaxing needs to be having a word with my missus. After a forced long walk she had me tidying up the garden then I had to make a BBQ. At least I had time to have some Condor in my Falcon and the wine wasn't bad either.
