Good weekend and pipes to all! Starting with Wilke Lizzie Blood Red English in a dedicated Upshall P Poker with sterling-banded square shank and matching eighth-bent tapered stem. John Brandt and Jiminks did a great job with this blend: it's good all the way down the bowl for me, while other English-style Latakia blends get techy by mid-bowl. And why I rarely smoke Latakia blends these days. This is lIght, smooth, flavorful to the heel, an all-day Latakia blend for me.
