GCR, fermented and pressed. Has a cider vinegar note to the nose but doesn’t translate into the smoke. 
You have to be careful when smoking pipes with orific bits because they tend to roll around when you move. I stayed seated when I smoke them. I can clench some with orific bits, but I'm especially careful with this one, and mostly hold it when the stem meets the shank. Since I'm always doing something, I will pick particular times when I smoke that cutty.
Half way through this bowl of Wilke Coranado Oriental in a 2003 URAL full bend big bowl egg shaped Lattice meer with a black acrylic saddle stem. This blend will go on sale this Wednesday. I posted my review at TR for those who are interested.
McClelland 40th Anniversary in a Dunhill Cumberland.
Now smoking 2021 Watch City Simply Orange Virginia in a black sandblast medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 182/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. The release date is May 24 at noon EST. Cleaning pipes as I watch the Braves-Phillies game.
Afternoon bowl of KBV Mr. Christian's Spacial Cuts # 2 in a small Upshall sandblast Dublin with smooth rim and eighth-bent stem size 3-4; two days+ dry time did the trick for me on this excellent tobacco.
Enjoying some Lane limited BLWB in a Tekin Meerschaum squashed tomatoe. It's a nice pairing with the Blue Moon!
Thank you! This is my first restoration project and I am really happy with the results. I can't find much on Claridge pipes accept it being a sub company of Comoy. I really like the lovat shape too.
Surprise Monday bowl for this guy. Wilke PB&C in MM cob. Treating myself with a good start to the week.
Mr C's Brightside in the KBB Rocky Briar Hungarian.
Now smoking from a freshly opened tin of year 2013 Dunhill Flake in a straight smooth 1960 Dunhill DRA 137 group 4 root briar canted dublin with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This may get me to dinner time.
Peterson Sherlock Holmes in the Medico Whitewall billiard. Nostalgic for me, as this was the first non-aromatic I ever tried. Sipping an iced tea and watching my feathered friends soar by.
Bird report: California scrub-jay, Common raven, Steller's jay, White-breasted nuthatch, Red-tailed hawk, Western kingbird, California quail, House finch, Hairy woodpecker, and American robin. Thankfully, the robins have not been attacking our car windows and mirrors this year, knock on wood.
Speaking of birds, chicken dinner (don't even think about calling me a hypocrite!) the past two nights means a chicken noodle soup dinner with the carcass. Afterwards? Very excited to watch a DVD I borrowed from my friend, Miles Electric: A Different Kind of Blue. This features his performance at the Isle of Wight festival in 1970, which to this day I have never seen in full. Should be a nice evening.

Gawith Rum Twist in a Moretti Morta freehand.
Be well everyone!

That is one gorgeous pipe my man.
