H&H ODF in a MM polished Morgan. Hauling hay bags to the haybags.
Spent my haircut money on 20% off Irish and Uni Flake at P&C (needed new bits for my MM Morgan and they had them) so I had to do my own.

Happy Easter everyone.
Today was the inaugural smoke of CS Ruins of Windsor packed into the Irish Harp calabash.
A pleasant smoke. It was kind of all over the place at first, bright, somewhat grassy with hint of sour and spice. Once it settles into the sweet spot it develops that "sweet bread dough" flavor that is quite nice. There also seemed to me a slight cinnamon undertone, waaay in the back but it was there.
I'm going to have to try this a few more times and see what some age does to it.

As for the pipe, This Peterson is a recent estate acquisition, and I am really enjoying it. Despite its size it is quite light and clenches well, a very comfortable and excellent smoking pipe. However, I have found that due to the deep, conical chamber it seems to smoke best with ribbon-type cuts rather than the ropey flake cuts.
I shall continue my experimentation! puffy
