    Puffing Gordon Pym (Dan Tobacco) in my Kirsten. This unusual English mixture is quite tasty. Also a bit fluffy — 1.7g is the most that’ll comfortably fit into my Kirsten, compared to 2.1g for most tobaccos.

    Soo Blend in a cheap briar.

    "Soo" is short for Sault Ste. Marie, in northeastern Michigan. It's sold by Austin's, which is a furniture/consignment/flea market/anything to make a buck in a small town store which has a humidor and reasonable selection of pipe tobaccos in back.

    Soo Blend is your basic whiskey cavendish aro, nothing special. I just got it bcs of the name
    You oughta know not to stand by the window, somebody see you up there.

    I opened a 4 yo tin of F&T Vintage a couple of days ago — puffing that now in my Radice Rhodesian. For some reason this pipe leaves pipe cleaners significantly cleaner than any of my other conventional briars. Don’t need any pipe cleaners at all while smoking my metal-stem Kirsten.

    Lunch featured King Oscar “Tiny Tots” bristling sardines on German-baked pumpernickel, with Thumann’s “Düsseldorf” mustard, raw onion, and lots of black pepper. And tomato basil soup. All good!

    I received ten 100g tins of Solani 660, Silver Flake from SmokingPipes yesterday. I now have 18 unopened tins in stock, and a little bit more in a jar. I’m well provisioned! Puffing 660 now in my Tinsky billiard. Superb tobacco.

    Puffing Solani 656, Aged Burley Flake in my Kirsten. I don’t smoke a lot of ABF, but sometimes I just crave it. Lots of flavor, and a radically different flavor than my Virginias.

    Puffing a 50/50 mixture of two F&T tobaccos: Blackjack and Vintage. The unflavored BJ counters the strongly flavored Vintage, and the mild Vintage counters the zippy BJ. A successful experiment.

    I ordered a tin of this to try; no burley (other than the DFK) and no cavendish... I might even like it.

    I also ordered about the last thing I need... a pipe.
    Been wanting a spigot for a while but most of them are just way too ugly IMO. And then there are the ones like Savinelli and Stanwell that only 'look like' a spigot but really are just a conventional tenon with some gaudy silver decoration. But I saw an unsmoked, Peterson estate for a reasonable price so I grabbed it. Hopefully it's a real spigot or it's going back.

    I don't care for Petes really. I don't like the 'system' or the 'p-lip', the heavily lacquered finishes or the big blocky look. Plus, I've read on several sites that Petes have a tendency to smoke wet. Well this one isn't a 'system' (if it is, it wasn't mentioned in the ad) it's a fishtail and it doesn't look too blocky IMO. It looks utilitarian, which is just fine by me. Hopefully it smokes ok. If not, you might just see it up for sale.

    -edit-

    Well the pipe arrived and it is a real spigot. That's pretty much what made me decide to buy it; I don't think Peterson makes fake spigots.
    I have a bit of Solani 660 airing out to try in it. Expecting it to taste terrible like most things do in a new pipe. Should just break out the ol' PA and be done with it but I digress... I'll have to try the 660 this weekend in a well seasoned Barling in order to get an honest opinion of it... but that will be hard to do since I have a new toy...

    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
