Sam Gawith St. James flake in a new MarTelo rusticated billiard with Mamoth accent. What an awesome smoke, this pipe smokes so dry..that I am really confused and rethinking my briar line up, of 100-200 even some 500+ pipes haven't surprised me this way.

I am not sure if it's the briar, the workmanship or the fact I am not clenching it as much due to respect, but it's really amazing.

That's a gorgeous piece of briar and I would gladly pry it out of your hands, but I believe like many things, the mind is the biggest factor here.

Did you put a finish on this pipe, or have you been smoking plenty of "stank"? (that's what my grandfather used to call any strong-smelling, oily pipe tobacco).

No, I stained the pipe prior to smoking - wanted some practice before I did a similar stain on a more expensive pipe I was restoring.

Waiting for some 50/50 mix of SPC Plum Pudding and H&H AJ's Vaper to dry while I catch up with this thread. Debating between burning it in a Morgan's Bones Chubby 20 or a Tom Eltang long shank now...
