[PipeIT]

His prices seem quite reasonable. Do they include VAT?

I never asked, I always assumed, when you are outside the EU Vat is always included... hmm

You are probably right; although some of the online shops in the EU advertise prices with and without VAT.

I don't know what I'm smoking and it's damn good! From the mystery latakia blends from Butter Side Down.

My inaugural smoke of this lovely cob gifted to me by @mbmoehl. “Derriston” is the blend. View attachment 230020

Curious, what is your "Derriston" blend?

Smoking some straight Maryland 609 leaf that I got as a free sample. Smoking out of a Peterson 313 silver spigot. A nice mellow and creamy smoke!

 

[OSOBUCO]

Bijou in a Radice paired with a lovely UNOAKED Chardonnay. Perfectly complementary.

Some Peterson Old Dublin in my new (to me) Stanwell Brazilia. This was an estate pipe that arrived in an unsmoked condition.

"Derriston" is my name for C&D Derringer and Gawith Hoggarth's Coniston Cut Plug mixed half and half. The cob smoked it beautifully!

 

[Akoni808]

Smoking a delightful blend of Kentucky red tips, Maryland 609, Carolina red flake, and Latakia

Batter up! Next at the plate is Peter Stokkebye's Optimum No. 31. Pardon me if I seem a little addled right now. I just dropped the lit pipe onto myself and onto the computer keyboard. Quite a mess! A tobacco as good as this deserves better. Smoking it in a Blatter & Blatter (Montreal) 100th anniversary commemorative pipe, two red dots, signed by Robert Blatter. This pipe was packed so well it practically smokes itself.

Really tasty. Through my Eric Mills Custom Cob "Samhain" edition cob.
