Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am almost half way through this bowl of KBV Golf SMV-1 in a 2002 smooth natural straight silver banded Ardor Venere Extra Fatta A Mano Maigret billiard, signed by Dorelio Rovera and a black acrylic tapered stem. Working on a review of this deeply rich, pure Virginia blend.
Afternoon break and a smoke. 2008 Boswell Freehand bent Skater? With a Plateau, rugged hand carved rusticated finish and acrylic stem.
I’m smoking Germain’s Plumb Cake.

Did a second set of walks in this stifling heat, and am not far from finishing this bowl of year 2015 D&R A.B. Rimboche in an undated slight bend, smooth flame grain Wessex Standard egg with a brown accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem.
GLP Telegraph Hill in a Castello Sea Rock
Just about ready to fire up a bowl of Sugar Bucket in a Butz Chocquin Arsenal. Hope everyone had a good start to their week.
Watch City Rhythm and Blues in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
C&D Three Friars in a smooth Peterson Kildare 264. I haven't smoked this old pipe in some time as it seemed to smoke hot and wet. Now that I smoke my tobacco MUCH drier than I did in the past, thanks to some wise members here, it smokes beautifully. Live and learn,eh?
Too early for bourbon to go with it, dammit.

Going to have Cornell & Diehl/Warped Saint Espresso (0462/3000) in a Peterson Long Dublin 417.
Snacked on some fruit, and am half way through this bowl of KBV Golf VPR-DR in a 1960s Austrian meerschaum bent apple with a tapered yellow stem. Plenty of ice water and bergs for my drink.
Finished up the last of my chores. Grabbed the Royal Coachman (Comoy) straight, saddle stem, pot and some Apr 2021 GLP Quiet Nights ?
Cup of strong black Kenya tea to accompany.

Now smoking KBV Golf FMV-2 in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. Making review notes as the Braves are about to play the Nationals. This is a great meer for reviewing blends.
Some Mac Baren Virginia No 1 at Adam’s Pipe Lounge … man they’ll let anyone in here. (There are 6 you just can’t see them all in frame))
I think this one is the bouncer … he’s eyeing me.
