Amphora VA Blend in the Muhsin volcano.

Walked Marco down Hell Road smoking first FVF then Hal O The Wynd out of my Volkan (A Paronelli) Sandblasted Rhodesian. Not as impressed with HOTW as I had hoped. It’s good but nothing amazing.

Hope everyone is kicking their weekend off right!

Just kidding that stuff is horseshit I couldn’t drink it. How about Boston Lager and FVF out of my Volkan Poesia Sandblast bent billiard.

Erinmore Flake in a MM Legend Cob - Balvenie Doublewood 12yo is the drink

 

[JimInks]

Part way through this bowl of Ken Byron Ventures Yoshimi's Robo Burlesque in a smooth three quarter bend 1979 made in Israel billiard with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Working on a review of this blend.

Dunhill Black Shell 'Cavalier' - seems like a posh name for a saliva trap pipe - Group 3 - my penultimate Dunhill bought in 1980 + W.O. Larsen INDIGO:-



+ other examples of the same style:-
(1) Dulwich Quaint / "London Made" on the shank . . . same age approx as the Dunhill.
(2) & (3) Vintage unbranded pair with threaded brass saliva traps.
