Passing the half way mark of this bowl of pre-2014 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.

Huber St.Louis Flake an Irish Seconds 302
Last of my Uhle’s Blend 44 in a Ser Jacopo Rusticated Bent Billiard. 
Started the day with a bowl of Coniston Cut Plug in a Peterson 309. Now smoking Kendal Dark vintage cut in a MM Country Gent.
Going back to the CLB Meer. 8th bowl in this one and smoking well. Mad Fiddler flake time.
Lunch today is charred London broil
Some Sutliff dark fired in the shop today! Pretty tasty tobacco.
Cigar Time: Drew Estate Factory Smokes Maduro
Did a set of walking reps, and am close to finishing this 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. Lunch follows this smoke. Watching the Twins-Rockies game.
How’s the strength? I’ve been eyeball that stuff as a bulk mixer or stand-alone…
It’s about 6 & 1/4 inches long, the bowl is 2 inches tall with an inside diameter of about 7/8. I have no idea what it weighs but it is light for its size.
I have a Don Carlos Canadian that is quite a bit bigger still. The Don Carlos is actually a bit too big for me.
I smoke it straight. Strength isn't bad but don't take my word for that. Building up a immunity over the years.
I just opened a tin of 2011 Mac Baren Club Blend. Smoking this bowl in a Savinelli 707.
Last attempt at finding the aromatic side of L. J. Peretti’s Blend no. 101. So far it feels like I will be looking to trade the remaining 2+ oz for something that I like better. Smoking it in The French Pipe #5.
Temple Bar in a Ben Wade Hand Model
Capstan Blue in a Castello KK Aristocratica Pot
I put some tobacco in this unlabeled tin, because I planned to smoke it right up. Instead it got shoved to the back of my cabinet - and now I have no idea what this blend is. Smokes pretty good in this Castello Sea Rock 11, though.
Keeping the Celebi Meer warm with back to back bowls today. 9th bowl is now 4th Gen Freja and Loki.
Sutliff 515-RC-1/Five Brothers in a Short Army 102. Not a bad mix, I’ll have to tinker with the ratio a bit-at 50/50 the shag heats the VA a bit. Hopefully at 2:1 there’s still the strength of the burley birdseye without overwhelming the Red Va’s.
