If you like the blend, but have trouble smoking it, I believe Dark Flake and Dark Plug are the same tobaccos in different cuts. I prefer the flake, but all three are excellent.
Burley London Blend in a Mark Tinsky Black & Tan Bulldog 
Now smoking Lane BCA in a meer.
8105. Had to look up the invoice as it’s not printed on the briar. I enjoy it. Nice little pipe for the money.
Thanks! At first blush this blend seems musty and olde tymee...and I like that. And it does have some potent nic...and I like that too.
Almost half way through this bowl of circa year 2000 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Match Revelation, supposedly Einstein's favorite smoke, packed for soon in a Savinelli Oscar Lucite 315KS prince. FYI, the Oscar Lucite series is one of the Sav series not designed for use with a 6 mm filter (or any filter). The series seemed to be suspended for a year or so, or at least didn't seem to be imported, but I think it is now back in limited shapes. I've had mine for about eight years, and it is a great broad-bowled pipe useful for complex blends as well as other purposes. My wife complained that the room note on this blend was "stale," and since she rarely complains about pipe tobacco smoke, that's worth noting. I think it may be the topping, but it tastes pleasant.
C&D Mocha in a MM Marcus with coffee. I’m blending a little Kendal Lat (light amaretto topping) with McLintock Black C for my next bowl. I love this Kendal Latakia, add a pinch to any tobacco and it just turns it up a notch, especially if you’re stuck with something you find a little bland or you’re bored with.
Now smoking Granger in an undated straight smooth medium brown Comoy’s Tradition 110B billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Cold and rainy again. Hope the ice and sleet doesn't get bad when it gets here.
Now smoking PS Luxury Twist Flake in a Basket Bamboo Billiard. And the journey continues...
Now that’s a bulldog. You can talk to me!
Murray’s 1810 Belfast in a Savinelli Roma Lucite 673
That's funny, I've got the total opposite situation regarding that blend. Revelation Match is the only blend my teenage son has said anything positive about regarding room note, and he otherwise never has anything positive to say about my pipe smoking.

Good afternoon, Skiff Mixture by Samuel Gawithb in a Altinay
Now smoking year 2010 Mac Baren Burley London Blend in a 2017 smooth, straight medium brown made in France Comoy’s Riband 298 Canadian with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Going to work soon.
