That pipe is unworthy of accommodating the Satou Pipe’s dedicated sofa. You should cut your loses and sell it to me so you don’t offend the others. Just sayin!
Luca tracked this group 4 size sea rock 75 down for me, they don’t show up often, it’s the first and only I’ve seen and it smokes great. I’d buy a second honestly!

Woke up this morning to watch the Premier League and enjoyed an early wake me up bowl with my coffee - 2015 Dunhill Elizabethan Mix in this grainy Tsuge Ikebana:

It’s an awesome pipe man and once I find one similar I’ll grab it. Plum color blast is just spectacular and being a Castello is just icing on the cake!

1792, but having trouble focusing on it as I'm anxiously awaiting my wife's departure so I can get started working on what I hope will prove to be the greatest advance in smoking enjoyment and tobacco evaluation since the advent of the clay pipe...SEDRHGT*. Here's how it works:

1. Empty a small closet
2. Get some weather stripping and thoroughly seal the gaps around the closet door.
3. Go inside the closet and shut the door.
4. Light up and puff vigorously for 5-10 minutes.
5. Exit the closet, quickly shutting the door behind you.
6. Wait one hour.
7. Reënter the closet and, again, shut the door immediately.
8. Inhale and then exhale through your nose.

That's all there is to it! If my theory is correct, the nuances of the tobacco will reveal themselves as never before...an entirely new vocabulary may have to be developed to describe all the flavor and aroma notes. Assuming it works out as expected, I'll share the technique with the guy on SP with the moth-eaten mustache so he can bring his videos to a new level of sophistication. Wish me luck!

I didn’t pack the BST LC quite as full as I did last time, so I “only” got four hours of smoking time instead of four and a half, but it did get me through both sets of Prelims and to the UFC Main Card which is starting now. As I’ve mentioned in the past, UFC takes place in an octagon shaped ring, so I’m having Savinelli Brunello Flake in a Savinelli Ottagono Due Sandblasted, Eight-sided, Paneled Dublin (number 63/600).

💁🏾‍♂️📖 Getting back to The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, a very excellent book I recommend. 🧐👌I thought over these entries with a bowl of Cerberus in my Viking 415 Assens Evening. Have you ever felt the Heartmoor or seen others wear the Unsharp Mask? 🎭 Have you questioned whether it was upon your own face?
