Love that pipe, man! Something about that Canadian shape!

Thanks man,
I really like them.

Not far from finishing this bowl of Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a smooth medium bend terracotta Peterson POY 2023 X160 464/1100 military mount egg with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This goes on sale some time in mid-November.

Viprati as the second smoke in the new briarWorks Blasted Zulu, on the rooftop deck of my hotel. The ghost of Sam’s flag is there after one bowl!

CS "Aqualand the Black" (not sure of the name actually and can't read the handwriting. It's an unreleased blend so far, blended for a member in my pipe club. I bought 4oz at a show after some convincing from JD. Its basically Green Dragon with Perique). Smoking from a Casanova bent egg with some tea. View attachment 259269

I'd say it's probably "Ancalagon the Black"...referring to a dragon from the Silmarillion by Tolkien...too bad that name won't be allowed now.

You're right, I checked with my buddy. It's Ancalagon the Black.
Apparently it's now released as Swamp Dragon because of the whole LOTR debacle, at least from what I was told. Good stuff.

Just had a little taster of Rouxgaroux in a small clay. Fantastic stuff, Jim! The quality of leaf in these blends is automatically noticeable. The cleanness of the flavors. Excited for a full bowl after dinner!

Rouxgaroux and Peretti #8 Slice have ruined me lol...it's hard to reach for other VaPers (although #8 Slice has Burley in the mix).

Heck yeah! Haven't had Peretti but heard great things! This Rouxgaroux is freaking nice! Smooth, sweet, great balance of Perique. I will always love Exclusive though. Something about it!

Not far from finishing this bowl of year 2014 Astley’s No. 55 in a 1915-1920 straight smooth dark brown BBB Own Make 150 apple with a silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.

Back up the ladder to my Smoky Hideaway. After a solid weekend of C&D Mountain Camp, looking forward to this bowl of WCC #558 in my beautiful Butz Choquin Colour Grain #2302. Elija Craig in my glass.
