Thanks to a fellow piper who sent me a bowl’s worth from his cellar - enjoying some Samuel Gawith (2004) Full Virginia flake in this newly acquired Stanwell Brass Band 192. Don’t know if it’s my favorite tobacco, but it is right up there near the top. And the Stanwell could well be my new favorite smoker. A wonderful nightcap indeed. Cheers!
These are fabulous pipes, IMHO.
The condenser is actually pretty efficient at drying the smoke. I flush them after smoking to get all the gunk out.
I have 8-9 of em…

Now smoking D&R Penhooker in a 1990 straight dark brown Commemorative reproduction of the 1890 Peterson Patent System 12393 stack billiard with a silver band and a bowed black acrylic 32 AB long stem p-lip.
Thanks for the info. Very helpful.

Just finished smoking year 2015 D&R A.B. Rimboche in a 2018 smooth straight flame grain Basil Meadows Merchant Service "Bing" replica with an aluminum band and black ebonite stem.
Now smoking Wilke No. 24 in a smooth straight brown 1949 Yello-Bole Century Model Lovat with a nickel band accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem. Still working.
This evening I had Irish Flake straight after dinner. Now enjoying a second bowl of Quiet Nights as my goodnight smoke.

Part way through this bowl of D&R Penhooker Silver in a straight smooth brown undated pre-republic Peterson Shamrock 263 Canadian with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite p-lip stem.
Good day folks!! Starting my day with 16/5 Der Neue in a cob and Jamaican coffee
Not far from finishing this bowl of AcesFour’s VaBur in the third pipe I ever bought ($1.95), a 1974 smooth straight French briar Hadley NEBPC apple with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Finished work for the day, and fed the indoor and three of the four feral cats.
Good moorning. We continue smoking with: Davidoff Flake Medallions, in MM Charles Cobbler...............
Good Morning Men! Beautiful day in the offing. Sitting at my desk contemplating the tasks of the day as I sort through my ashtray and smoke up yesterdays dottles. It's my effort to be environmentally responsible and reduce my carbon foot print and if you believe that I have a bridge in Brooklyn that I can sell you! With inflation, shrink-flation and all these other forms of 'flation' I have noticed that whilst the price of tobacco seems to increase year on year it is still cheaper than in the U.K or Canada or any part of the Commonwealth so I suppose I must be grateful for small mercies. My pipe today is a lovely 'Devils Arse' in a faux crocodile case, amber stem with heavily embellished silver band. It's a little off from my usual diet of 'cutty' pipes but the bowl is the perfect size for dottle destruction. I would guess it's age to be somewhere around the early 1900s. Enjoy your day and I'll see you all after a bowl and some coffee.
