With the Santa hat tooDarn Tate,
I just noticed that 5 Brother’s in your avatar and spewed my soda
Strangely it was one of my first pipe tobaccos, right after the crappy aros, lol, I love that stuff.
Once I realized that I gravitate towards stronger tobaccos, it's what everyone recommended and I also love it!
Practicing slowing down my smoking this evening with Villiger Tropical Export in an El Morjane Algerian briar large billiard. This is the biggest pipe on my rack, but I like the larger chamber for moist aromatics that smoke best with a gravity fill.
Both are magnificent.
I think I need a Dunhill...
Trying out some of Ernie and Jim’s new VaBur in a Bing.
Earlier walking the pooch I enjoyed some Glass Slipper in a little MM Cob. Now, after seeing they’re starting to advertise the ‘23 release, I decided to bust into a jar of ‘21 Cringle Flake. Finicky smoke for a newerbee, but it was this tobacco that cemented my love for the pipe. One night it just all came together in a magical explosion of taste, ceremony and relaxation. I’ll never forget that night. Still working in this restored ‘77 Calich. Elijah’s my wingman.
Thanks, that’s a great looking pipe!! Don’t see too many Dunhill pokers like that.
Right? It's unmistakable.
BTW, I like Laurel Heights quite a bit. But it took me nearly the entire 1st tin to really "get" it.
Thanks, yes, I know what seconds are, my question was more specific to what markings differentiate this pipe from a regular K&P? I’ve just restored a 1947-48 K&P, so only now getting to know the historical markings.Irish Seconds are Peterson Pipes that for whatever reason don’t meet QA standards. They’ve been around since the 1890’s in some form or another and are currently sold on Smoking Pipes EU site.

Heck yeah! It was my first online tobacco purchase once I was running low on nightcap and EMP. I kinda felt like an ass but I completely disregarded the aro suggestions when I got my first pipe and picked EMP and Night Cap for my first blends lol I don't regret it lol
Today's lineup:

I opened a tin of Maahlin Flake from January '22, expecting to rub and air out. Imagine my surprise and delight to find flakes at the perfect moisture level.

2020 Kringle Flake in a Savinelli Dolomiti 311KS for tonight. Merry Christmas to me! 
That's interesting...I've never had Fillmore, but it's advertised on Smoking Pipes as a VaPer. TR says Latakia, and @JimInks says Latakia, so I believe that for sure. I've thought about the blend a bit in the past, wonder why not advertise the Latakia?
