Not far from finished this bowl of Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a smooth straight brown circa WW2 Trapwell mountain laurel patent apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem. Then, sleep with any luck.

Beautiful Costello!

Smoking Haddo's Delight in a positively brutish Rossi Vittoria. Bowl is almost an inch wide, I taste every single varietal.

Love the pipe! Haddos is one of my top five blends. I am amazed it doesn’t get mentioned more…

Peretti 150th in a nameless not sure what to call it. Billiard in proportions, except the bowl is a bit narrow and is canted a bit at the top. Stem has billiard ratios, but is oval, and has a 1/8 bend.

Good day all! Starting with Watch City Old Black Magic (2006 tin #13) in a Burak Connoisseur smooth Tankard size 2. Carter Hall is on deck.

Match Elizabethan from PC in a BC straight rusticated billiard with a tapered stem and silver colored band, a Rocaille series pipe. This blend is currently my favorite Virginia based blend, nicely balanced, tasty, with no edges. jiminks, that's the first Mountain Laurel pipe I've seen or heard mentioned on Forums. The N.C. pipe carver Jerry Perry still works in Mountain Laurel along with briar and some other woods. I have several of his pipes in Mountain Laurel, as well as some in briar, and one in cocobolo.

Match Elizabethan, or Match Victorian as I guess they're calling it now, is a fabulous Va/Per...

I didn't know Mountain Laurel was used to make pipes. I'm going to look into this!

Good morning all. Started again with Peterson's Irish Flake in a cob. I'm growing fonder of this blend.
