Im puffing the first pipeful of Dunhill Flake from a just-opened tin with exactly two years of age on it. Basic is beautiful: this stuff is uncased and no topping – just top notch Virginia. I like to let my pipe go out, then revile in the lovely aroma wafting up from the warm bowl. Drinking Arpeggio (dark-roast Arabica) made in my Nespresso Pixie a few minutes ago.

Rattray's Black Mallory in a MM Twain cobwarden
I am starting to feel that Black Mallory is underappreciated as an English blend. It is really wonderfully balanced, cool smoking and with a reasonable dose of nicotine. I'd chose it over Squadron Leader for an all-day English.

Having some "Pride of Manassas" (my homemade flake pseudo-brand), batch 36, in a Nordling rustic billiard. Batch 36, which I just pressed, contains VA, MD 609, cigar scraps (most of my flakes contain cigar scraps :)), imzir, cavendish, and Tobias' Surprise, which is a clever little blend that our friend Tobias Lutz assembled a year or two ago. It tastes kind of sweet and dirty but is still a bit too moist. Strength is mild-medium.

I'm fine. I took a forum break because I occasionally get very self conscious when my posts dominate this thread. I really like seeing what everybody smokes, but when I continually see me having five, six or seven smokes in a row, I start to wonder about everybody else, and why more don't post. I know more smoking is going on than I see, and I could be wrong about this, but it seems like there are more posts when I don't post. That's happened the last couple times I took a break. I'm glad to see the other posts, which are every bit as important as anything I do. I hope I don't sound cranky. I just like the company here and want to see more of it.
