Today, I can't get enough of Wilke 111 and High hat. Mostly smoking out of favorite corncobs.

Enjoying now with: C&D Star of the East Flake, in a MM Charles Cobbler............................
Part way through this bowl of Wilke beta test in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer with a black acrylic saddle stem. Watching Mad Dog Russo.
First a half bowl of Semois Medium Cut in an 8" Ropp Canadian.
Second, simultaneous bowls of Elizabethan Match blended 50:50 with Pirate Kake, smoked in a Radice Collect, and Mixture 79 in a Vauen Bent Egg (with the stem freshly drilled to 4mm).
Semois is pretty much what I expected, surprisingly sweet for a straight Burley, and of course burns perfectly.
Blended Pirate Kake and Elizabethan tastes mostly sweet while lighting and gains smokiness as the bowl progresses, I'm a bit surprised at the lack of smokiness but the Pirate Kake is six years old so it's a good question exactly how much potency it has left.
Mixture 79 is gentle and lightly sweet and floral, quite pleasant.

MB Golden Brown Burley in a Rossi rusticated Canadian, Coke Zero on a cloudy, hot day.
Old dark fired flake in my Rossi straight apple. One of my favorite smokers, fills and all.
Moving into the afternoon session from hell I am smoking some BB No:2 Flake and using this Birmingham Hallmarked 1900 meerschaum 'Cutty' with an amber stem and then moving across to its twin with a replacement 1920s stem which I colored up during the COVID 19 epidemic last year - its sort of my plague pipe!
Having what’s left of the GH Whisky Twist I cut up yesterday (sufficiently dry today), this time in a Peterson Carroll of Carrollton. Celebrating an amazing lunch of chicken curry at the local Indian restaurant. Maximum satisfaction all around. Cheers!
2012 John Aylesbury Luxury Flake in a Jack Howell Brandy.
Now, I’m smoking Gawith Hoggarth Kendal Flake, in a cob, and drinking a ice cold Arnold Palmer.
Good night folks!!! Black Parrot in a Le Nuvole lovat
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am smoking year 2016 Newminister 400 in a straight smooth brown year 1948 Parker Super Bruyere patent 23 88/F bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching the Yankees-Twins game.
Stanwell Eversson designed 91 with G&H Black Cherry X Twist
A quarter of the way through this bowl of Watch City Mr.B’s in a straight smooth dark brown 1933-40 Medico Frank patent 1967585 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. First time smoking this pipe.
Smoking a bowl of Gawith & Hoggarth BB No: 2 Flake in my plague pipe since I have finished for the day!
C&D Bayou Night in a smooth bent poker/sitter from Ropp, made from vintage stummels. Good full-bodied blend, a favorite Perique blend.
Hi guys, home mix in a LCS Bulldog
2012 Astleys no 44 Dark Flake in a Jack Howell Paneled Billiard.
@FurCoat I enjoyed St Bruno in my clay.
