Going to have Hearth & Home White Knight, followed by 10th Anniversary White Knight (“contains 10-year vintage Virginias grown the same year that White Knight was introduced”)—I might even do a bowl of the Sutliff Balkan Sobranie Original Mix Match bulk for good measure—in an IMP Meerschaum Black and White Rhodesian (partially rusticated) with a silver band while I work on a magazine.
I dig all the whites and blacks in that picture! Interested in your thoughts on the 10th anniversary WK versus regular. I'm planning to buy a few more tins of WK for the cellar, was debating whether to pony up for the special edition or not.

Internet was out for a bit. While i was, I did two sets of walking reps with the usual smokes:

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.

Year 2015 D&R A.B. Rimboche in an undated slight bend, smooth flame grain Wessex Standard egg with a brown accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem.

And I'm close to finishing this bowl of Chris Morgan Jackalope in a straight burgundy sandblasted year 2019 straight Ryan Alden J billiard/pot with a tapered cumberland stem.

Half way through this bowl of the soon-to-be released C&D Carolina Red Flake 2022 in a 2003 brown medium bend Nording 4 rough top dublin sitter with a small rusticated area at the top left, fluted paneling on the left, and a black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Working on a review of this blend.

Now smoking C&D Jolly Old St. Nicholas in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer with a black acrylic stem. Working on a review of this blend as I listen to the Braves-Marlins game on the XM. I can't watch the game because it's on Apple TV, and I don't pay to watch sports.

Thanks! The 10th Anniversary is a little sweeter and fuller than the regular—I prefer it to the regular tinned White Knight (and bulk Sutliff Balkan Sobranie Original Mix Match). That said, all iterations are a bit mild for my usual tastes, but, I do enjoy them.
