Smoking some Kieler Förde Latakia based, no Virginias, in a cob “Made in China”.
Obviously it’s not made from the same corn cobs any MM cob is made of. I had to fill the bottom with a kind of hardwood plug because there is was almost no material than a sponge like white mass. But now it tends to burn through one wall, it’s getting thinner every smoke. I don’t mind.

Last bowl of my first tin of Capstan Blue, so far the only straight VA that moves me to hoard! 
might try a yellow next. Smoked in a 1940s Barling

Smoking some Prince Albert in a Lee star bulldog away from the wind in my garage. Drinking a double shot of espresso with it.
Cobs today are what Grabows were in the old days. Smoke it untill it burns out and get another one.
Living vicariously through you all until I get over the covid. I can't taste anything when I get it, so I know I've got it.
Keep puffing y'all! It makes me feel better!!

It is the Savinelli 602 (Saint Nicholas 2022). I could not be happier with how it smokes, fit and finish. Even my wife said (without any prompting!) that it is a nice looking pipe.
Did a set of walking reps, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. It's time for lunch, now.
Forum Friday, in the garage for awhile - Warped Saint Espresso in a Peterson (Book of) Kells 01, then some ‘17 McClelland Va. No. 27 in a Doug Finlay Dublin and a rare afternoon pour over of Iron Bean coffee. Have a great weekend all! 
Enjoying some Hartwell's Evening Stroll in a Falcon, rusticated bowl. Falcon - a first for me.
It looked like 602 to me at first, but i wasn't sure. Nice pipe.It is the Savinelli 602 (Saint Nicholas 2022). I could not be happier with how it smokes, fit and finish. Even my wife said (without any prompting!) that it is a nice looking pipe.
Smoked some Burley Delight 212 in the yard cobs while I sprayed Trimec for lawn weeds
Sam Gawiths Grousemoor in a lovely Chacom Maya Grise straight. Enjoyed in my shed with a mug of tea.
I didn't quite take to this pipe initially, preferring more rugged looking rusticated and utilitarian pipes and smoking deep earthy English blends. However, upon hesitantly dipping my toe into the Lakeland floral style of Grousemoor, based around bright and delicate citrusy Virginias, I feel the pipe has found a perfect blend to pair with. I didn't think I would like Grousemoor, but am thoroughly enjoying this pipe smoking experience.

Enjoyed a tall stack of cinnamon raisin French toast and a sliced orange lunch. Back to diet maintenance now. I'm half way through this bowl of Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Evening Flake in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson Ebony POTY 4AB No. 422/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star Jamaican Estate Reserve, neat, is my drink.
Get well soon brother. We'll all have a bowl for you.
