Part way through this bowl of Peretti’s Boston Slices in a 1979 black sandblasted medium bend Savinelli Non Pareil 9606 Billiard with a military mount horn ferrule and black vulcanite stem.

FVF in a pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock.

Milan Honey Smoke in a MM Legend.

2015 Dunhill Royal Yacht in a 1984 Ser Jacopo Renaissance #306, sandblasted, taper billiard. Diet Pepsi on a gorgeous late Spring afternoon, full of sun.

I thought that this would be a good pairing, pipe and tobacco, after my first smoke in this behemoth with GH Louisiana Flake.

Verdict, I liked the Royal Yacht before but I like it better now.

Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem.

P&W #515 in a 1998 smooth straight Butz-Choquin Bistro 1501 pot with a black vulcanite stem.

Smoking my homemade HALF and HALF "Burley and Bright". Solani 656 for the burley and Dunhill Flake for the bright. Quite good – a helluva lot better than the stuff that comes in the red, white, and green pouch with its over-the-top topping and ethylene glycol.

Edit – long ago every drugstore in the Midwest carried H&H, PA, etc.
