GL Pease Haddo’s Delight in a Holland-Made Glazed Clay Billiard :pipe:
Celebrating IPSD a day early with a wonderful bowl of GLP's Sixpence. Really nice blend here, different from anything else of his I've tried.
I also placed an order at Smoking Pipes for some things I can't get through the store. They're offering 10% off, so it was a no-brainer.
Bowl of HH Pure Virginia in the Hulk (black straight stem)

Some Dubliner in an unnamed Canadian, Some @Cool Breeze Cherry Blend in a King's Guard and some Dunhill Aperitif in a Satin Grain Bent...
Glad to see you're enjoying that cherry blend. It's 3 different tobaccos and it's better than any of the were on their own.
I just got finished with a bowl of Dunhill Elizabethan Mixture in an unfinished Savinelli Series III.
PS Luxury Twist Flake in the un named pearwood followed by some Kentucky Club pepper's pouch mixture in a mm ozark mountain
Yessir....it's going down just fine, plus the wifey likes the smell in her snoot.........Quote:

McClelland Yenidje Highlander in a MM General - packed Hanna's air pocket method, which works wonderfully in a pipe with these proportions.
I can't imagine one could use the air pocket method in a lot of pipe shapes (apple, prince, tomato, squat bulldog, small billiard, wide pot), but the MM General is basically a Chimney shape and narrow enough and well suited (especially for the pipe neophyte) to get the wad of tobacco rightly situated to channel all the virtues of the blend and none or few of its vices.
"Air pocket" as a philosophy may confine you. Smoke what you want, pack any way you want, in any pipe you want, and learn yourself by trial and error. You might learn that the elders are right, but you may also learn that you are right, so experiment and fail until you get your own groove and discover your own peak smoking experience.
goin outside onto the porch an smoke a yorkshire bowl of Black Swam......take a pic an then come back here an post that pic....so just hang in there.....

Bout to fire up the first bowl of the day.
Dunhill Flake in a MM Country Gentleman.
Some FVF from 2/1/2012. About out of this batch, but I have some from 2013.
Had a nice bowl of G&H Louisiana Perique at the shooting range today, while sighting in my new baby:

The Perique was strong but smooth, but needed frequent relighting. Come to think of it, same for the carbine :)
Sweet Oriental in a Willard, 2 ounces wont last long this is good stuff!
Next up will be SPC Mississippi River in a F.Baki basket weave calabash.

Just finished another bowl of Sweet Oriental in a Willard.
Hi Alan, I originally thought that you were referring to "Sweet Oriental", by Master Blender Steve Books, but according to Tobacco Reviews he said that he did not create the blend.:shocked: I do like Oriental tobacco and a sweet one would be interesting to try. So my friend, which Sweet Oriental are you smoking?:ask:Quote:
