What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

Heading out for a round of calabashery and maybe a finger of rum. Wish I had some Happy Bogie or Brown Irish X here but I don't. I do have a chunk of some black, Sam Gawith rope of some kind. I'll prolly smoke a chunk of that

Hope he wasn't from Colorado :)

Having some Newminster #6 Vanilla Delight, part of the haul from Tobias' bulk sell-off. Not bad for an aro :)

Last night had some Esoterica Dunbar in a Willard pot. This morning I am have a homemade VaBurPer blend that a pipe club member made. Smoking it in my new estate Dunhill billiard that I got on Ebay.

Puffing the last fill from my tin of Dunhill Navy Rolls. When I first opened the tin, I thought it wasn't as good as De Luxe Navy Rolls. Still not sure about that, but regardless, this stuff is superb tobacco.

Well duh. It's not 'Deluxe' anymore :p :p
Maybe they should change the name to 'Ordinary Navy Rolls' or 'Proletariat Navy Rolls'
Think the FDA would be ok with that? How about 'Ghetto Navy Rolls'?

Smoked a bowl of G&H Sliced Brown Twist in the newest Savinelli. So far I've been unable to smoke this pipe to the bottom; always a bit of wet tobacco that just won't burn at the end. Hard to get cake in the heel at this rate. I'm hoping this problem eventually corrects itself or I'm going to be rather disappointed with this pipe.

That's how my 320 was for a long time. It is getting better now, after a year+.

I would really like to know why they changed the name of this grand old tobacco.

That's some good stuff.
I have smoked more McClelland Virginias in the last couple months than anything else.
