Boswell Northwoods in a Falcon Bulldog. This always hits the spot when I’m craving an English blend.
MacBaren Burley London Blend from 2022 in a Peterson System Standard B42. It didn't smell as good as the 2021 version in the tin, but it definitely tastes better. Could be because I cracked the 2021 tin the day I got it and blew through it super fast and now I've let the 2022 sit for almost 18 months. Either way, great blend. Wish I had more than a couple tins
1999 Old Gowrie in my Castello bent bulldog.
Bayou Morning in a Castello four square panel
Cleaned some pipes, and am close to finishing this bowl of Watch City Beta Test #4 in a smooth dark brown 1983 Ben Wade Duo 65 poker with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
Sutliff’s Heavy English in a Cavicchi Stubby Apple
Off to work with a bowl of Wilke Coronado Oriental in a straight black sandblasted undated, unbranded Made in France short shank billiard with a long black vulcanite tapered stem. Have enough left of this bowl for a few more bowls.
Bayou Night in a Rossi Billiard at the end of a long day!
Finishing up a bowl from earlier, ODF in a Martin
It was unexpected, just showed up with a decent price, I could never afford one of his new smooths. As much as I liked that tanblast of his, I was certain I’d discolor the rim quickly. Do you know his grading system at all? This is a Saint, I have no idea where that is on his scale.
After dinner watched Sherlock Holmes, House of Fear. Very good! Now outside for Stoved Luxury Twist Flake in the 6 panel bent lattice meer, some bourbon, and a book...
Saint is his highest grade if I’m not mistaken.
Passing the half way mark on this bowl of year 2017 Esoterica Dorchester in a straight smooth brown 1920s KBB Rocky Briar 1582 patent no.298978 with a B in a circle bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Listening to the Dodgers-D-Backs game.
Old Dark Fired in the 60's Dunhill Bulldog. I agree with the recent sentiment concerning this blend--it's a keeper.
Today I was smoking a Castellos Old Antiquari KKKK Canadian with the same Kramer's New Mix. I can't remember exactly when I got this one, but it's been about 20 years. Always a great smoker.
