Good morning! Enjoying a lite English breakfast of Black Adder (50/50 Peretti Crown/Peretti Ebony) in a Royal Ascot Supreme Bulldog, and coffee. Delish!
James Upshall Tilshead straight Bulldog with a black saddle stem. PS Rounds and a warm desert morning as I briefly check out my main home before hitting the road again.
2nd bowl, after breakfast as usual. A little Amphora Burley in the Chacom. I've always had a special place for this simple, elegantly designed pipe. It's one of the oldest in my collection and has survived the few heard thinnings over the years. Excellent smoker, ergonomic and straightforward. Sometimes I just find that refreshing.
Drying Huber St.Louis Flake to put in for a test of my Karl Erik that has not been smoked in over 20 years. I also have several others that I have cleaned up to bring back into the rotation. They include a Preben Holm, Nording,Design Berlin, two more Jisas and a Georg Jensen.
Starting off my smoking day with a bowl of pre-2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Watching Mad Dog Russo.
Hanging out in my near empty room waiting on the delivery folks. Decided to try a fold and stuff bowl of Sutliff VA flake in my Orlik 6379 dedicated to Virginia dominate blends.
