Not far from finishing this bowl of Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut in a 2015 Basil Meadows smooth straight thin shank and stem with an aluminum band Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica. Love this pipe and has become one of my favorites! It brings out the best flavor from this tobacco, too.
MacB's Old Dark Fired in an orange stained, orange stemmed bent billiard by Jerry Perry in briar; this is the pipe I took to Nat Sherman's in Manhattan, where I bought and smoked Nat Sherman 536
Now smoking HU White Dog in a 2014 smooth quarter bend Basil Meadows horn with a cumberland stem and p-lip. Got this and five other samples of HU blends, plus three variations of an upcoming HU blend that blender Hans Weidemann is working on. I get to provide feedback!
