Looks like it was a nice evening
What’s your take on the Plum Pudding varieties? Is there a clear “winner” in your opinion?
Good morning everyone. Sitting on the front porch enjoying this warm fall day. Got some Haunted Bookshop in my Savinelli Saint Nicholas and coffee in hand.
Starting the morning with a Nightcap and an Aldo Velani calabash.
It was a fun night. The UFC card earlier in the day was great fun, and Susan made yummy food throughout the day. Last night, our neighbour stopped by and we hung out on the porch with the puppy with tunes, had beers and cigars, and many laughs.
The Bourbon Barrel Aged is smokier than the original, but, has less of a barbecue note. The Special Reserve is more refined and melded than the regular and BBA, and the Special Reserve Flake maybe even a little smoother than that—they’re all different, but, I’d need to compare the Special Reserve and Special Reserve Flake side by side again—I think my taste buds could’ve been a bit blown out from all the smoking and drinking (and eating) that started the night before on Friday—we turned in late and got up early for UFC, so I only got maybe three hours of sleep, plus a short nap after UFC Saturday evening. I almost prefer the bold, in your face notes of the original blend, but, I’d need to revisit the two Special Reserves again (which seem more alike than not at this time). The regular, BBA, and SR are different enough that I wouldn’t say there was a clear “winner”—they’re different enough that having all three around is a good thing. I would need to spend more time with the SR and SRF to get a better sense of them, especially because yesterday was the first time I popped the tins on the two.
Darn, packed the previous pipe poorly, tobacco wasn’t dry enough, had to dump it. So ….. Nording Cheetah with House Blend from the Pipe Rack in Akron, OH (nice gift from @Streeper541) - back to the quiz!
Trying to re-create last night's magical pipe smoking experience. I can't get over how great of a smoke Gawith's Commonwealth Full Strength Mixture is! I'm smoking it again, and there is just no tongue bite! The flavor is also great and at least *I* don't mind the room effect.
Smoking it in another Blatter & Blatter pipe - curved, this time.

2012 Dunhill Flake in a Rad Davis Billiard.
Cobblestone Hiking in a Kaywoodie Silhouette billiard.
Just loading up some HU Nyala in a bent Bantam Falcon with a spool bowl...it's been a long day with the munchkins.
Looking forward to putting them to bed and grabbing a coffee with my pipe. I shall retire to the coal shed and disappear in a cloud of smoke. Hope you all had a good weekend.

Just finished smoking year 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.
2012 John Aylesbury Luxury Flake in a Jack Howell Brandy.
Balkan Supreme, Nording Freehand, coffee, jazz! Nice Sunday morning. 
Did a set of walking reps, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Good Sunday morning all. Been enjoying the footie while smoking Savinelli Jupiter.
