Earlier, I finished the tub of pre-2014 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.

Then, I smoked a bowl of year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem.

Currently, I have passed the first third of this bowl of year 2014 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Twist Flake in a smooth straight brown mid-1930s Linkman’s Dr. Grabow Supreme Bruyere 9456A patent 1896800 billiard with a nickel band and a black vulcanite saddle stem.

Balkan Sobranie in an ebony 125th anniversary 3s. I snatched up a few anniversary pipes and I think this one is my favorite. It’s dedicated to English blends and I haven’t had a bad smoke with it yet. This is the first tin of the current Sobranie for me, I don’t dislike it. It’s light and sweet and burns pretty quickly to fine ash. It’s good for shorter smokes especially in a small pipe like this 3s. Not sure if I’ll buy it again.

The last of this bag of Lavazza Classico, neat, is my drink.
