Bayou Morning in a 
Blatter & Blatter Canadian.
Blatter & Blatter Canadian.
Amphora Special Reserve Black Cavendish in a cob that is usually smoking strong aromatics. The hint of Orange Blossom and Sillem’s Red come through, and that’s nice.
3 Nuns in a Lasse Scovgaard blasted bent brandy with horn.

Hello to all of you.
It's a really sunny and warm day here in Denmark, so I'm in for a light smoke

Beautiful pipe. One of my favorite color schemes, and a fantastic blast. Congrats sir2015 Mind Meld VA in my new Tendi billiard.
Old Mullingar's Knockbrack Virginia Mixture in an old Civic Canterbury pipe.
Not sure what's older, the pipe or the tobacco. I found this tin a while ago, still vacuum! and jarred it a few weeks ago. The tax seal had a price on it for Dfl 4,40. (The old Dutch Guilders)
A very strong smell when opnening the tin but the taste is a bit less strong. Not bad at all and even with a nice roomnote...
Unfortunately I don't know the original smell and taste fresh from the tin at the time it was availabe in tobacco stores.

Good day all! Starting with KBV Matured Fragrant Virginia in a companionable Tilshead smooth Billiard with long, sleight-bent saddle stem. Very, very nice (according to my damaged taste buds).
2019 WC Rouxgaroux in an AKB Lattice Cherrywood Meerschaum carved by Tekin.
Davidoff Royalty in a Altinay spigot meer.
Starting the day off with a little tasting session. A member was gracious enough to gift me half a dozen samples of blends I may like, so the mini-meer came to work today.

Now smoking some of the blend that started it all: Benjamin Hartwell's Evening Stroll. This tobacco is luxury, pure luxury. I was always worried about going to it too often and running out, so I bought a pound of it and now smoke it without worry whenever I feel like it. Unfortunately, I have so many fantastic aromatic blends, that this one doesn't get smoked often enough. The pipe is the last one in this latest Blatter & Blatter Pipes on Parade. This is a tomato with one red dot. Every Blatter & Blatter pipe I have (five) is a perfect smoker. If I can ever get downtown to their B&M, I expect my B&B population to grow.
2018 Dunhill 965 in a 1961 Dunhill Tanshell Billiard #104, Group 4.
Going back to this well for the 5th time in two days. This is starting to be a thing maybe...

A quarter of the way through this bowl of early 2000s Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Smoking some AmphorA Virginia blend in a Chacom Maigret sandblast this morning. Pretty good. 
That last bowl of Benjamin Hartwell's Evening Stroll was so good, why not another? This time in a bent Stanwell. The bowl is half sandblasted and half smooth. Very attractive in real life.
Mac Baren Navy Flake from a fresh tin in an old cob. I had forgotten how much I enjoy this one.
