Now smoking Wilke Little Round Top in an undated straight smooth brown pre-Republic Peterson’s Sterling bulldog 150 with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite saddle p-lip stem. This blend is Back Bay with much less perique (10%) than the regular Back Bay. Working and listening to The Challenge of the Yukon from my radio collection.
Just finished smoking 2021 Watch City Simply VOriental in a straight smooth medium brown 1930s Wilshire 5 bulldog (Comoy’s second) made for John’s Pipe Shop in Los Angeles with a black vulcanite saddle stem. It's time for some low calorie snacking. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Back home after several days with no pipe. Stepping into the porch for some MB Virginia Flake in my Merchant Service Short Cutty and a bit of Cutty Sark over ice before bed.
Now smoking year 2017 Esoterica Dorchester in a straight smooth brown 1920s KBB Rocky Briar 1582 patent no.298978 with a B in a circle bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Just fed Tomato the Brave and Abner the Eager. After they eat, I'll see if Sam the Scamp is around. Dunno where everybody else is, but at least the rain has stopped.
Just finished smoking year 2022 Watch City Blue Ridge Special in a straight smooth ebony post-WW2 LHS Sterncrest 91 bulldog with a sterling silver band, a diamond shank and a tapered black vulcanite stem.
I’ve stayed away from Latakia for a long time. Not for any particular reason but my taste for it just wasn’t there anymore. I’m about to dive back in with some Arango Balkan Supreme in my Moonshine Morta Cannonball.
Enjoyed a tasty Snap Dragon apple, and am closing in on the half way mark of this bowl of Wilke Picket’s Charge in a post-WW2 straight smooth brown pre-Republic Peterson’s Dublin 3 Shamrock bulldog with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. This blend is Wall Street with much less perique (10%) than the regular W.S. Work's done for the day, and I'm relaxing a stiff back.
Have just over a quarter of a bowl left of Wilke No. 515 Double Shot in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This is No. 515 with twice the rum of the Basil Rathbone blend. That'll do it for me today.
