Ken Byron Verge Engine (red, gold & stoved virginia) in a gorgeous Neal Monier (garagemadepipetool) pipe. I love the lines on this pipe.
Second bowl of the night is Granger. Just refilled my Brigham, enjoying the burley blends.
Watch city Stubbs in a Savinelli, enjoying the evening.
Interesting Grabow. First paneled I've seen.
WCC Quint's Own in a Vauen bent apple.
Half way through this bowl of year 2020 Mac Baren Scottish Mixture in a straight, smooth brown 1960s Lane era Charatan Special 38 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Going to work in a few minutes.
A couple of minutes or so before I smoke a bowl of year 2020 D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 lumberman with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Continuing on from yesterday's Stanwells, another Stanwell from its Danish patented era.
A Jess Chonowitsch designed Shape 157 bent Dublin/horn with a tapered stem.
There is also a similar Shape 156 with a saddle stem.
With some C&D red Virginia.
I bought a 10gm sample as I was looking at blending my own VaPer.
A prickle on the tongue on lighting up, but no tongue bite.
A definite irritation at the back of the throat resulting in bouts of coughing.
Not quite the flavour profile I was looking for.
I'll keep looking.

Big bowl of Brown Clunee in my Castello sea rock. This is my best smoking pipe.
A quarter of the way through this bowl of Wilke Hearth of Galway in an undated smooth straight medium brown made in France Saillard Lord Clerit lumberman with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Listening to Orson Welles substituting for Jack Benny on Benny's show from my collection of radio shows. Benny was sick for several weeks, and Welles filled in for him. They are great episodes.
Peretti Cambridge Flake in the Full Pete (System Spigot XL315 Rusticated P-lip) with water and all y'all.
Looks like you know you know your type!
C&D Oriental Silk for the ride home from work.
Old Joe Krantz to settle in at home.
I have a fairly broad cellar that’s getting broader and I always look forward to trying a new tobacco, but I am happy to know if I could only smoke a few blends by C&D I would be good.

Eccentric in a Savinelli Oceano 106 smooth straight billiard, with water to drink. About to put on Inglorious Basterds to sit back and enjoy. It may just be my favorite Tarantino film and the opening scene with the dialogue and pipe smoking is also one of, if not my favorite scenes ever.
A handful of London Mixture in my unknown maker late 60’s/early 70’s freehand.
If you recognize the mark, please let me know…

Had a light snack, fed the ferals, and am a third of the way through this bowl of Wilke No. 72 in a pre-1974 dark brown straight Larus & Brother Co. Signature billiard with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem with the initials LCR on the top of the stem. This blend was smoked by Walter Cronkite. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
