This Il Duca freehand is quickly becoming my go-to for Esoterica Tilbury.
I think Tilbury works best in a tall and narrow chamber.

After dinner and a game of triomino's with The Blonde and my son Nick, he and I made our way up to the mancave.
I set out a flake of Germain's Rich Dark Flake that I had received as a gift from @mgtarheel, to let it dry out a bit.
I then started the evenings medley with some of the Lane's I'd picked up at the TAPS show last month.
First was a bowl of Crown Achievement in the Square Panel Savanelli Billiard. Man this stuff sings to me and that little smoker is a great briar.
Nick started with Raccoon's Accent.
Then we both had a bowl of London Dock, Nick's favorite. I too quite enjoy it.
Then I moved onto Rimboche S.J. A very bright smoke, for me anyway. Very good
The English Hooplah finally got a go in one of my Bent Billiars. I really enjoy this tobacco.
I decided to sweeten things up with some good ol Cap'n Black Cherry in the Dunhill pot. Guilty pleasure
After a bowl of Lanes HG 2000 in the ol Bent Dublin it was time to give the RDF a try.
I folded up most of it but rubbed out some of it to put on top.
It was still a bit moist, necessitating a few re-lights, but I gotta tell ya, this is one fine smoke.
What was I smoking it in you might ask?
Why, the Savinelli Oscar 320 KS I just refurbed, of course.
Times like this, with a sweet glass of one of my favorite Scotch's... Glenrothes accompanying the pipe, makes one feel as if all is right with the world.
