Sutliff 515 RC-1 in a Peterson Rhodesian
Early 20th cent. unknown maker + Robert McConnell RED ROSES:-
I had a few aros in my first ever online order of several blends in the Spring of 2020. I ordered small quantities and have not revisited them...not for me either. Personally, I just like natural tobacco (smell and taste) and enjoy the variety they offer. Glad there's something for everyone though. The variety of tobacco and pipes available still amazes me.
Now smoking Watch City Rhythm & Blues in a 2003 smooth three quarter bend Rinaldo Fiammata Odissea Titania 02 Silver Line 3 Straight Grain egg with a black acrylic tapered stem. This may get me to dinner time. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
The pipe is the top one.

Just finished Bayou Night in an Alpha Rex.
On deck is 50% C&D Red VA with 50% Perique from P&C in a wire carved diamond shank Shalom straight acorn (bulldog no rings?) Physically it is nearly identical to a Grabow #80 Starfire I have. I just call it my naked bulldog.

Yes, I've got a couple of modern reprints but ...@virkia
I read it was King James I who wrote A Counterblaste to Tobacco in the 1600s - widely regarded as the first piece of anti smoking literature:
A Counterblaste to Tobacco - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
... a better and more thoughtful read is the 1601 pamphlet of three years before Counterblaste entitled "A Warning for Tabacconists" aka " A Caveat for Tabaccho" by a doctor who called himself 'Philaretes'.
Conterblaste, despite being less scientific, is certainly full of colourful language replete with great quotes such as this one about tobacco-smoking being a "custome lothsome to the eye, hatefull to the Nose, harmefull to the brains, daungerouse to the Lungs, and in the blacke stinking fume thereof, neerest resembling the horrible Stigian smoke of the pit that is bottomelesse".
Did you actually smoke the vintage clay pipe?
Smoking D&R Two Timer in a MM Shortstop.. neat little pipe. Its super small, but sometimes I need a short smoke. Black coffee is my drink.
I smoked 3 bowl of WhiteKnight today its such a savory blend i might order 10 tins to cellar .
Sittin' at the bar with a PM forum bandwagon smoke....2020 CF as a first spin for a well-grained Jack Howell.
MM 965 in a Peterson Premier System B42. Watching the 49ers on MNF - home game in Arizona.
4th Generation 1882 in a Posella 3 Star.
McClelland M-27 Three Cherries. So smooth, the best cherry blend IMO
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, French cut pork chops and green beans dinner with strawberries and grapes for dessert. I'm a quarter of the way through this bowl of Sutliff Cringle Plug (Holiday Edition 2020) in a black straight, grain etched family era (Post WW2) Four Dot Sasieni “Appleby” apple with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Watching a fun movie, The Great Mr. Nobody starring Eddie Albert, Alan Hale and the beautiful Joan Leslie. I remember seeing this movie when I was ten years old. Haven't watched it in all these years.
Just ending a bowl of Glorious CONDOR RR in a Meer...
2020 Cringle in my Jesse Jones bent billiard.
H&H Black House in a cob toasting my toes by the Big Buddy heater
2017 Dunhill Navy Rolls in a Castello “Castello” 55.
