@Tate I don't want to smoke all my pipeweed and have none left for the Sealed Knot event; if I have smoked it all I'll get some GH twist or flake. Do you think the Clay King can take the strength & taste of his twist???Go for it, buddy!
@edger I enjoyed the Coniston Cut Plug in my clay pipes. Appleyard's of Buxton sells it loose! Definitely a baccy for the King's Clay!
Never had GH buddy but I'm sure it's good. Seems pretty popular!
Peterson Perfect Plug in my Tsuge Thunderstorm. Great little pipe for Virginias.
@Tate Gawith tobacco is PERFECT in Ye Olde Clay
Perfect for clay pipe era re-enactment events & getting your pipe lit from the forge!
Just finished a bowl of White Knight in my Sandahl:
I dunno, I've never felt punched by perique.
I think the flavors of the Virginia and Perique have melded in to one semi-complex amalgam of sweet earth and spice that is well balanced.
I'd have to tase it as it was when fresh to fully understand and appreciate the effects of such long aging.
It's turned into a rather nice afternoon with a lot less wind. Smoking some KBV stampede kek in a Baki
Try either Ryan Alden or Smith House Pipes.
@ashdigger and @hoosierpipeguy both have stems from Ryan.
Cornell & Diehl Eight State Burley 2022 in a MM Country Gentleman Cob
HGL in a chubby little 1896 Alfred Barling meer. 
Tried lighting my clay pipe with a candle I brought home from the carol concert; it makes the pipeweed taste & smell waxy... Still think an ember from the blacksmith's forge is the best
2022 Cringle Flake in the little clay, decaf, and a book.
Just finished a bowl of Kingfisher in the 1922 Carlyle Patent which has a rather unusual stinger which actually works pretty well. I have been watching the tv series version of War of the Worlds and was very disappointed in the first season finale when the aliens turned out to be….. SPOILER ALERT
Human!!!
Did the producers not see Jodie Foster’s Contact where the alien takes the form of her father and read the reviews where everyone that sat through two hours of bollocks and was pissed off by that let down of an ending? Couldn’t they spring for some decent CGI freaky aliens or even go old school and use make up? Lazy bastards.
Ok deep breath, thinking of pixies dancing…. Calm.
Anyway I cheered myself up by getting myself a Christmas present, a lovely Astley’s billiard which will hopefully arrive before the holiday and I’m packing my 1921 gold band L-B Record with PS Bullseye flake. I’m not mad, just passionate.

@Scottmi Nice pipe; I had one the same but it got broke:-(
I suppose when you're the Clay King you get through more clays than anyone else...
Just finished smoking year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.
