Earlier this week had a bowl of mixins In a cob. A bag with some loose ends of some blends that were not enough for a bowl so I mixed them together into a bag. It was terrible. Yikes. Back to regular single blend. CRF 2020 in a Jack Howell. Much better.
Virgin smoke in my brand new Savinelli that my wife bought me. This was a huge step for her to support my pipe smoking habit in any way. She picked this pipe out all by herself with no guidance from me, and I think she did a great job. To be thoughtful to her, I decided to devote this pipe to Aromatics so that she may enjoy the smoke as much as possible. I could think of no better tobacco than Molto Dolce. Don't tell @cosmicfolklore that I am smoking this 'goopy aromatic', he will tease me unmercifully!!
When I lit it up, I got my first positive smoking comment from my beautiful wife of 32 years - "That on smells good".

They had samples of all six for sale in Chicago. The first one will be released in July, and then every other month thereafter. One in every ten tins will have the challenge coin.
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, blue catfish and sugar snap peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've about a third of a bowl left of 1960s Philip Morris Revelation in a mid-1970s smooth brown medium bend Ed Burak Connoisseur bulldog with an acrylic black saddle stem.
Rattray's Highland Targe in a Savinelli Roma Lucite bent pot.

Oh, I’m still gonna tease you, ha ha. But, Molto Dolce is one of my favorites. I bought 12 tins back a decade ago, and now that heavy sauce has thoroughly soaked into the leaf, making it even more delisciois. When I fire it up Mrs. Cosmic knows we’re about to bow chicka wow wow…
I also put this together a few years ago…
Good to hear that it ages well. I bought a supply that should last me for years, and was afraid it might go bad before I got to it all.
Now smoking Ascanian No. 1 in a straight smooth dark brown 1930s (Comoy’s) The Exmoor Pipe 283 chubby Rhodesian with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Esoterica Stonehaven from 2014 in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
Enjoying some night train in a Vauen poker
Starting my evening with some FVF in one of my 673s. Blend is really growing on me.
Best smoke of the day, PS LNF in a Castello.
Some RLP in my old workhorse Peterson Shamrock, little Jim Beam on the rocks. Getting the coals ready for chicken wings and lamb riblet’s Have some Stan Getz playing that sweet sax.
Now smoking year 2016 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown post-1964 Parker Super Bruyere 88/F group 3 bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.
