C&D Autumn Evening in an MM cob. I still like this blend.
Escudo (2013) in a BST Bent Billiard. Aging has really tamed the rough edges of this blend. A very smooth smoke.
If I'm going to head down Boise way, I'll definitely look you up! I'd be honored to swap stories. Much love for those Kiowas, especially the warriors with Hellfires onboard, what an airframe!
Not sure, it was gifted to me. Somebody on Instagram.
Sutliff Balkan Luxury Blend 957 in a Dunhill Millennium Shell from 2000
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, tomato soup, chicken legs and sugar snap peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've passed the half way mark on this bowl of Sutliff Cringle Flake (Holiday Edition 2021) in a black straight, grain etched family era (Post WW2) Four Dot Sasieni “Appleby” apple with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
My first bowl of Ennerdale in a MM Huck Finn. Despite the pejorative comments regarding Grandma’s powdered labia and perinium, this blend is quite pleasant. Those that enjoy vanilla laced tobaccos could find this enjoyable and would not be put off by the strong Lakeland essence. The underlying va’s are excellent and come to the fore as one smokes down the bowl.
I had thought that this blend would be similar to Condor but I realize that few pipe smokers today have any clue as to what Lakelands really are, and tend to ignore the rich history of British tobaccos. This is nothing like Condor or St Bruno but is very good. So sue me. Much scotch to accompany this smoke!

Enjoying a sumptuous bowl of match Walnut in this Sasieni Four Dot rustic pot. This was a perfect day.
Thanks @reloader. I've noticed Haunted Bookshop and other blends with what I'd describe as a sharp edge, tend to do better in the Vittorias. I had such a smoke today.
It's the 6th but I do remember that I was enjoying a couple bowls of Wilke Pipe Tobacco's Lizzie Blood Red Virginia in one my favorite Canadians.
I don't think I would have caught onto that if you wouldn't have pointed it out the other day. That was very perceptive of you. I'll have to test it out with some other blends that are rough around the edges.
Just opened a tin of Low Country Edisto. I jarred it after letting it breathe a bit and packed a cob for tomorrow morning.
A third of the way through the last of my open stash of year 2015 Strang in a 2003 smooth light brown medium bend straight grain Ardor Venere Extra signed by Dorelio Rovera Dublin and a black acrylic saddle stem. Will revisit this blend one of these days.
Continuing the Star Trek marathon with The Wrath of Khan and 2017 Ennerdale Flake.
A Sunday evening smoke of 2020 Carolina Red Flake in a Savinelli Venere Dublin.
