@krizzose A bit ironic there's a pipe baccy called Musketeer as they aren't allowed to smoke due to the explosion risk:Sillem’s Musketeer in a Savinelli Canadian
I don’t doubt Jim’s take on this one bit but after comparing Epiphany and Revelation Match, I prefer Epiphany. Been smoking a ton of it lately.Huh, I had been led to believe that Epiphany was the closer match. Looks like I'll be trying some of the Sutliff Match!
@Christos D. Tsatsaronis Nice pipe! The Clay King welcomes you to the Fellowship of the Clay! Do you have any info on the style and maker? I was smoking GH brown twist in my Old Dominion Jamestown clay at the Sealed Knot Battle of Nantwich last weekend. A period correct pipe and baccy!For years I wanted to do this: my first smoke in my first ever clay pipe! I thought it was appropriate to fill it with an English blend, so it's Gawith Hoggarth Balkan Mixture in it. Perhaps now I will be able to aplly for acceptance in the "Fellowship of the Clays", after -of course- approval by the "Lord of the Clays", aka halfdan...
Keep calm good people.

@Christos D. Tsatsaronis I haven't got a Williamsburg clay but I think it would suit the Redcoats & Revolutionaries:Thank you, I am honoured!
It's an Old Dominion Williamsburg Clay Pipe, it came from Missouri U.S. together with a new cob...
I went through a couple ounces of Epiphany before I tried Revelation Match. I didn't like Epiphany at all the first time I tried it, but when I tried it a couple days leter it was sublime. It's now in my regular rotation.I don’t doubt Jim’s take on this one bit but after comparing Epiphany and Revelation Match, I prefer Epiphany. Been smoking a ton of it lately.
I like Epiphany better because it has less topping/PG and agrees with my tongue a bit more. Also, to me, Epiphany seems to have a bit more perique, which I like.I went through a couple ounces of Epiphany before I tried Revelation Match.
