Indeed it is. And a helluva smoker. Love this little thing
Just had some Elizabethan Mixture. Had a very different experience.
I think I learned what slow and sip actually mean. I thought I was smoking slow because I was smoking slower than cigarettes. This isn't the case. I was hanging out back after finishing up everything. I was just relaxing/ zoning and I kept the pipe barely smoldering. This pretty much happened by mistake but then I realized what was happening and got so much more flavor out of it. The earthy/grassy nuances as well as some sweet and spice. Incredible! I thought my tobaccos were good absolutely freight training them. Lol. Looking forward to revisiting everything with this new technique.

Peterson EMP in a Wiley Patina
More FMC in the reliable Pete 221, I think Boswells Northwoods is close but FMC has more of a silky fruit note in my opinion
Ending the evening with G&H chocolate flake in a Savinelli
Good on you, well done!
Finished up last night's 2015 Laurel Heights in the kk antiquari.
Put this 2002 DM through the paces today with Abingdon, then Pegasus, then Five Brothers.
Not sure why... will probably clean and rest for a few days now. Great colors in my neighborhood. Hope you are all well.

C&D Sun Bear Mountain Honey in a Winslow Crown freehand this evening.
Mac Baren navy flake in my 70’s Savinelli Estella 
Capstan Blue in a Capri Billiard. Not the greatest smoker, but it‘s lightweight and handles virginias well enough.

That poker is growing on me and it's all about the accent ring.
Vertical Limit in a Heeschen.

I have the bent apple kin to this pipe, it's out for repair but I will show it off when it is returned. Yet another pipe changing my opinion of pokers.

I still have plenty of hair, but nobody wants to see it.
