After presents and some food, had a bowl of Tashkent in the Smoking Pipes 25th Anniversary Ropp author using my new Sherlock Frog tamper and Savinelli pipe stand with black coffee. Great combination!
Now smoking year 2001 Murray’s Dunhill Navy Rolls in a 1984 black sandblasted straight Dunhill Shell 4103 billiard with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Watching Night Passage starring Jimmy Stewart.
The next cased oldie is a 1920 Hall and Fitzgerald of Bristol Goudron (ox blood) meer - a straight amber-stemmed, gold-banded billiard with an orific bit
With a bowl of Stonehaven’s half-brother - Germain’s Rich Dark Flake

Merry Christmas! Peterson Night Cap in my Peterson Arklow on a cool, clear Florida night. All is right with the world.
Another Christmas down and finally getting time to smoke a pipe. My wife did really good this year, albeit with a few subtle wish list hints...
Smoking some 2003 Dunhill The Aperitif in my new Christmas gifted Chris Herriot slight bent egg.
Hope everyone has had the merriest of Christmases!

Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of year 2014 Full Virginia Flake in a slight bend 1968 group 4S Dunhill Shell 475 cherrywood with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Cannot pass up this beautiful, calm and warm night.
So, cigar time: Drew Estate Blackened S84 Shade to Black (Connecticut), my second in this series of Drew Estate / James Hetfield (
Metallica) collabs.
2007 Ripe Pu'erh tea, brewed nice and strong.

Did a little snacking, and am half way through this bowl of year 2016 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown post-1964 Parker Super Bruyere 88/F group 3 bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. All the ferals ate, and went right back out. It's nice outside so I don't blame them for it.
On the menu for my evening smoke was Hu Nebari loaded in my BBB Filter Deluxe billiard. I had stuffed cotton balls and rum in this pipe to try and get rid of that murphys soap taste. It's helped, but I think I'm going to try the wet coffee grounds method next.
I hope you all have a great Christmas!

A couple of minutes or so away from smoking Watch City Jim’s Golden Ticket in a year 2018 black PBS medium bend Peterson Sherlock Holmes Series Baskerville with a sterling silver band and black vulcanite p-lip stem. I may end the day with this smoke.
Had some Roper's Roundels while in the hottub earlier:
before starting my daily shift Had to have a bowl of Mc Barens Symphony in an Ashton XX pebble grain
Enjoyed a very short snooze with Sleepy Suzy on my lap, but I'm awake and smoking year 2018 D&R Windsail in a 2018 full bend smooth natural Peterson Sherlock Holmes Lestrade with a silver band and a black vulcanite saddle p-lip stem.
Last smoke of the day is year 2014 Uhle’s 00 in a straight smooth brown post-WW2 LHS Purex Superfine 74 Canadian with a metal screw-in tenon and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Fed all the cats, and the ferals went out after they ate. I'm getting ready to clean a few pipes.
Finishing off a bowl of LNF torn and mixed with a dollop of 5 Bros. in a pipe I consider to be a 'sweet' briar.
My beat up old (like a lot of my favorites) Westbrook rusticated straight apple which I got along with a pipe rack as a throw in. Its bottom is about the thickness of a walnut shell as it seems to have been regularly smoked by at least one previous owner. Very light, very comfortable. Always imparts or allows ? the best of my blends to reveal themselves to my palate.
