Nothing packed today, but last night it was Peterson Royal Yacht, with the tin getting low now, in a straight dark red stained apple Ropp with a raspberry stem marked "Hand Cut" and a double silver colored band. Ropp is a substantial outfit, and the stem seems quite nice, so I'm taking their word on the hand cut part. The bit is good and wide and the airway good.
I’m smoking Ennerdale in a cob and sipping ice water. We are experiencing an absolutely gorgeous 76f Fall day in the Carolinas, with Sunshine and falling leaves. I love this time of the year.
About a third of the way through this bowl of Ken Byron Ventures Mr. Christian’s Sticky Pudding in a 1975 medium bend sandblasted looking, smooth on the sides yellow Pioneer meer billiard with a black ferrule and vulcanite stem in the military mount style. Working on a review of this blend.
