Smoking Dorchester in a newer Paykoc meer. Have to say, I was not expecting the blueberry pop tart aroma when I initially opened this tin. After a month or so in a jar, it has been somewhat tamed. Still very present though. I’m not usually one for aro’s. But this isn’t too bad. Unpopular opinion: Dorchester is either lightly topped or heavily cased. The pup seems to be ok with the aroma though.

Yes. That’s his bench. Also yes, he is spoiled.

Now smoking from a freshly opened tin of year 2013 Capstan Blue Ready Rubbed in a straight black sandblasted 1924 Parker’s Super Briar Bark 11 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This pipe was made in the second year of Parker production.

A balmy 53F outside, so it's Stanwell Kir & Apple in my Savinelli Tortuga 614 faux Hungarian. Tin note is very berry, but both room note and taste are all apple. Looking forward to cracking one of my two tins of Drew Estate Harvest On Hudson when my last ounce or so of K&A is done, and comparing the two. Bird report: California scrub-jay, Steller's jay, Dark-eyed junco, House finch, California towhee, Spotted towhee, White-crowned sparrow, Common raven, and Oat titmouse. Lots of avian activity today, which makes sense...BIG storm rolling through mid-week. Already seeing green grass in the hills between LA and the San Joaquin Valley. It's only a question of how long it will take before people start seeing through this asinine drought propaganda en masse.

Going to try to get another in tomorrow for IPSD, and retrieve my SP.com order after the holiday. Hope everyone has a good week!
