Just passing the quarter mark on this bowl of year 2007 Astley’s No. 109 in a straight smooth brown circa 1950s-60s BBB Contrast 506 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

I felt like that would be a bit much. But it is 1 of my favorites and regular must haves. And after smoking tons of it. The stuff has a bit of molasses I swear. Not a lot but it's a bit sticky the same way loose leaf chaw is. And also my chew the tobacco to help determine the casing says it's got some too as well as the smoke. A small amount that is like adding a sugar cube to a cuppa Earl Grey, the taste is still tea mostly but it's not as harsh as it could be.
Now working on some C&D Stratfordshire in the English cob.
Afternoon Smoke: Savinelli Doblone D'Oro in a Missouri Meerschaum Cob, along with my handy Rodgers of Sheffield pipe knife and 1950's Nimrod Commander pipe lighter
Finally piped a tin of SPC anniversary dark flake and have some out drying to try in a Savinelli 606 KS 
2008 GH Dark Birds Eye in a 2019 Scotts pipe. Cool fall day doing some yard work.
Before Graveyard Shift a bowl of Samuel Gawith - Commonwealth Mixture in a Country Gentleman Cob and a Cup of Joe.
2012 Wessex Brown Virginia Flake in a Rad Davis Billiard.
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am half way through this bowl of 2018 Sutliff Walnut Match in a 1974 smooth brown slight bend Tinderbox Aalborg freehand made by Nording with a black vulcanite stem. I'm surprised to discover that I never photographed this pipe, which I got in 1979 from my then-girl friend's brother for $14. Gonna have to do that today. Magnum Roastery Jamaican Blue Mountain, neat, is my drink.
Big ole bowl of some Match Victorian from a Savinelli Autograph sandblast. Enjoying with a double shot
Yep, winter gets to be kind of a dead period - walks outside, occasionally in the garage, rare road trips but not like this amazing late summer and early fall has been!
It’s warm enough (47) and nice gray fall day on the deck - Peterson Arklow No. 68 and KBV Merchant Service Fireside Chat - contemplating life’s many mysteries!
Watch City 4Q in a Viprati Tulip. This pipe is marked 82/100 as part of some uknown series from 2012. Haven’t been able to find any other info on it.
Smoking some vitamin-rich home blended aromatic I made a year ago in my MM Country Gentleman. I think this contains Sutliff Cherry Cordial and Vanilla Custard blended with C&D Dark Burley, a pinch of Dark Fired Kentucky and some Virginia (Wessex Classic Virginia?). I added a fistful of Five Brothers to it for good measure. It works!
Just finished smoking C&D Wintertime Reserve 2022: Ghost of Christmas Future in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer with a black acrylic stem.
