An Old post from @Chasing Embers
Turned me onto it referencing grape tobacco’s. I grabbed a couple tins to try based on his description and found it to be a really unique blend. Literally everyone compliments the room note instantly with praise. It’s a fun blend with a hint of grape, burns well without relights, awesome tin note as well. Its an ARO with Virginias, Black Cavendish, Dark Fired Kentucky and a wine topping. It’s worth a try.

I have a tin in the cellar but haven't gotten around to it. I like CBG so this sounds like a good fit.

Smoking Sutliff Apricots and Cream out of a Peterson Aran Bulldog. It is very pleasing.

You’ll find it different and more refined. See what you think !

Sun Bear Black Locust in my Boswell tonight. Finally an opportunity for a second bowl

Momma turkey and ELEVEN chicks were huddling next to my porch. Started moving when I came out for some 2017 HH Vintage Syrian in the Royal Ascot Supreme Algerian Briar bulldog. So far, this pipe has been the clear winner for the blend.

Now having some Mcclelland 5115, that some generous gentleman shared with me at the Columbus pipe show, in my Meer.

I love the pipe. I have some vintage Zulu's (Comoys, MCL, Hollycourt, Medico) and they are fabulous smokers.

Thank you, sir! Was an ebay find for me, and can't say I have any affinity for the Hesson Guard system other than a historic curiosity, but it's pretty to my eye, and for me, just the right size for this blend.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and sugar snap peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm half way through this bowl of Watch City Original Crumb Cut in a 1950s-60s straight smooth brown Bertram 07 octagonal paneled billiard with a square shank and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Watching the Braves-Nats game.

 

[BrightDarkEyes]

Haunted Bookshop in the Çelebi. I think it’s bowl #8. beans316 would say Look at it! That’s some good meerschaum.

Last of a sample of 4th Generation Resolution in a cob (thanks @troutface !) I'm really digging this blend.... too bad it was a special release!

And I'm finishing a sample of Semois that Eric (sittingbear) kindly sent in our last exchange. I am now a big fan of this unique tobacco.

CRFw/P in an Eltang

Germain’s Brown Flake in my 1954 LBS.

Wight State Burley in a Roadtown Classic bulge.

 

[BCF]

Has to be one of my favorite Brighams I've seen here. I love the wire brush rustication!

Hey thanks! Great little pipe to smoke too.

 

[Scottmi]

It's my Birthday as well. Turned 39'ish

Happy birthday @briarbuck !

 

[JimInks]

Almost half way through this bowl of aged Rattrays Hal O’ The Wynd in a straight smooth brown pre-WWII (Comoy’s) Corinthian De-Luxe 126 pot made for Sutliff in San Francisco with a black tapered vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

 

[tigerfan22001]

Decided on some Elizabethan in my bing tonight.

Perfectly crispy Burley Flake 4, from 2019, in my Briarworks.
