Not far from finishing this bowl of C&D Warped St Espresso in a 2003 URAL full bend big bowl egg shaped Lattice meer with a black acrylic stem. I think I have finally figured out this blend. Ice water and bergs is my drink on this very busy day.

Afternoon everyone, I just finished some McClelland Mature Cake in the Astley’s, now I’m going to revisit the Moztek Highland Balls in the 1922 Masta Patent billiard, I haven’t smoked this in ages and have completely forgotten what it’s like. View attachment 144548
Had to look up the Motzek tobacco you mentioned as I never heard of it. Reviews sound interesting. But I can't find it anywhere. I suppose because it's made in Europe? Sigh. Another one I'm missing out on.

Luxuriated under the gazebo on this beautiful 80-degree afternoon for a few hours, watching the neighborhood sparrows dip water from the dogs' dish. I smoked a couple bowls of Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a brace of MM Country Gents, one straight, one 1/4 bent.
It was glorious!

Hmmm.. I’ve tried Moztek’s Highland Balls and their VB Twist, now I just need to find some of their Lowland Vagina and I’ll be set. Anyone notice a theme here? Something odd and strangely sexual going on at the TAK factory I think. ?View attachment 144562

Please let me know if you locate any of that Lowland Vagina.

Just finished 30+ yr old Country Gentleman tobacco - a little stale, it needs to be freshened up. It was an aromatic that looks like Rivendell but has something in it that is slightly acrid and produces a bit of tongue bite if smoked too hot and fast. A bit peppery and spicy. It has a perfume aftertaste. The local shop that made it is long out of business.
The pipe was a Barontini Gran Duc with 360 degree straight grain and birdseye on the bottom. It passes a cleaner and the ash was fine white. The chamber dimensions are 20mm x 55mm deep. One of my favorite pipes.
Smoked in the car while driving to run an errand. Many head turns...not many pipe smokers around here and its a large beautiful briar pipe.

Not far from finishing this bowl of year 2016 Newminister 400 Superior Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown year 1948 Parker Super Bruyere patent 23 88/F bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Finally settling down after mylaring pounds of bulk tobaccos, taking out trash and recycle, feeding Suzy, Molly, and three ferals. Watching the Braves-Red Sox game.

In the Northland it is cold and frigid for much of the first half of the year. Today was the first day nice enough to sit outside and smoke a pipe.

Smoking a Dunhill Quaint with some 2019 Luxury Bullseye Flake and a Pepsi.
