Gawith Hoggarth Dark Plug in a BriarWorks prince.
I’ll definitely give it a try if I can find it locally, thanks for the tip?
Afternoon everyone, I got a lovely package in the mail this morning from @greeneyes (thanks mate) 
with all the new Cascadia Plugs. First however I’m going to try some of the original “No Name” made by Players back in the day (I’m not exactly sure what day that was but it was one a long long time ago), this is going in the Ornsby Pipe.

HU Nyala in a Sasieni Perfect Ten Canadian
Mac Baren Golden Extra in a MM Country Gent.
MacBaren Golden Blend in a cob
SG Choc Flake out of a small meer bent billiard gifted to me by a friend years ago
an afternoon smoke of Ole Gowrie in a Stanwell Royal Prince model 51
Sutliff 507-C VA Slices in DIY Briar #1.
Having Kelly's Coin with some granulated perique in a Freehand cob.
Good day all! While waiting for the storms to arrive will be starting with GL Pease Cairo in a Savinelli Autograph Billiard with flattened shank and matching stem. Blend looks and smells in the tin like C&D Bayou Morning with some of the perique swapped for oriental leaf; tastes like that, too ....
That was fast shipping!
That tin of Players is identical to this one (link below) and was recovered from a World War II militaria salvage at the border between Netherlands and Germany. My best guess is between 1939 and 1944. A well built cutter top is like a time capsule! The contents were pristine!
tin of Players 'No Name' tobacco
Sealed cylindrical metal tin with removable lid. A narrow white label around the base of the tin reads "Player's No Name Tobacco". Embossed on the lid are the words "TO OPEN THE TIN REMOVE LID AND PRESS VCUT UNTIL POINT IS DIRECTLY DOWNWARDS REPLACE LID. PRESS LIGHTLY AND TURN".
Having some 2017 Dunhill MM 965 in a Rob Roy cob. Good good good.
Trying Sun Bear Black Locust in pot shaped Vauen. Let’s see if the honey comes through more intensely.
PS Bullseye Flake in a Ryan Alden Bulldog from my Matching Eight Day Set
Wessex Campaign Dark Flake in a Rossi Lucca #812 EX Bent pot.
Starting off my smoking day with a bowl of circa year 2000 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
One of the most awesome sets in existence, brother!
