That’s pretty unusual, especially if it was made in England. Lovely pipe though.

Have you tried the other Cascadia plugs? A buddy sent me a couple of tins of each one when they came out and I was very impressed with them. They’re the closest to classic UK plugs that I’ve seen out of the USA. I’ve kept one of each aside as I think they’ll age beautifully.
Magic Toast and coffee by the warm glow of Mr. Buddy on a rainy and cool morning. I’ve got a Peterson Sherlock Holmes Deerstalker loaded with Butley Morning Pipe on Deck. Still basking in the Rangers Walk-off HR win last night. Cheers! Go Rangers!

I’m having one of my worst bouts of insomnia for a while and feel like I could sleep for a week but unfortunately it doesn’t work that way. Anyhoo I’m in the mood for a mild English after having some Anomalous earlier (lovely blend, I really dig the Katerini Perique) so I’m gonna load up some Merde de Cheval in a Kaywoodie bulldog #12B from a matched grain set. I need a third coffee but I don’t really have the energy to get up off my ass. 
Smoked my new pair of Ropp Gargantua tonight.
These pipes were a very pleasant surprise as the stem is drilled with a 4mm taper bit through 8" of the 9" stem, almost unheard of in regular pipes let alone a Chruchwarden. These cost a little more than your average Churchwarden but they're well worth the price.
I smoked Dunhill 965 in the pot and my home blend "Bayou Creme" in the billiard (a 50/50 mix of C&D Bayou Morning with Sutliff Z92 Vanilla Custard).
Dunhill 965 easily turns harsh, very sensitive to fast puffing, to coax the flavor out I was counting to 10 between puffs, and also heavy in vitamin N.
"Bayou Creme" is one of my favorite home blends, burns perfectly, lightly sweet and the Perique carries an aroma of berries.

Good Saturday morning all. Up way too early and watching English Premier League footie and starting with some Opening Night in my Briarworks Apple.
ODF in a J Davis, about a half gallon strong coffee with milk and maple sugar. That should wake me up but it usually doesn’t 
I haven’t as of yet. This was my first go with Cascadia so far with Vertical Limit . Fairly strong but flavorful blend. I would try some others since this is fairly likable. Ill take your advice and do the same with a couple of tins. Hope your having a great weekend @Birddog66 !
