Peterson's 3P Plug... Or Peterson's Perfect Plug? Peterson's Perfect 3P Plug... but yeah... that, in a cob. Extremely impressed with this tobacco. About as full bodied as VaBur's get with flavor profile from all the pressing and stoving and just the right amount of strength to my preferences. If anyone wishes to replicate my method: I very thinly slice the plug, rub it out a bit chunky(so it's something between a shag/thin ribbon and a broken flake if that makes sense), dry for half an hour to 45 min, and pack it not-too-tightly in a small bowled pipe like that of the smaller sized cobs. Please try it if you enjoy VaBur's

Smoking Director’s Cut out in the yard this evening.
The pipe is a less common Dunhill shape, a 1992, Dunhill Shell 1/2 bent pot, 5215, a modified diamond shank, saddle bit with factory silver band. The shank is really more a kite shape than diamond in that it is flat on the underside, but they list it as diamond. It is by far the youngest Dunhill I own and the only pot shape pipe I have so it is unique to my modest collection.
