Sam's Flake, which I surmise Thomas Hardy may have smoked since it's part of The Mayor of Casterbridge collection.
It's only 5:30 AM and I'm on my second bowl and second cup of coffee. I'm beginning to think there might be something wrong with me. I mean, you know, in addition to all the stuff I'm sure about.

Hello Pipefriends.
I've been away for a long time - to much work for months followed by a (well earned) three weeks vacation!
Now everything is back to normal - and I've found out, that I like normal
Celebrating my "normal" life with Peterson Early Morning Pipe in my Altinay Rusticated Meer Billard Silver Spigot - life is good
Hope you all are well!!
Nb: I promise, that I will never be away so long time again

If Normal is sitting back with a pipe then Normal is good!
I got an order of Gawith Hoggarth tins in the mail today and am currently smoking Bob's Chocolate Flake for the first time (in the Dr. Grabow Lark I've already shown off a dozen times) and I have to say this is probably the most complex and interesting blend I've ever tasted! There's only the tiniest amount of Latakia and instead of being used to make the blend smokey tasting like an English blend it's used as the backbone of the chocolate flavor to darken it and add richness. Then there's all the dark earthy Virginia and Burley flavors and the most subtle hint of Lakeland essence mingling around in there too, which all work together brilliantly. I can certainly see why Gawith Hoggarth has been in business since 1887, because this is some masterfully blended stuff!

SWRA in my Peterson 313. For simple pleasures, SWRA is just about the top of the stack from the tub smell to the taste.
