Sutliff Trafalgar in a Medico straight billiard

This one had a lot of bite when I first received it, but it's calmed down to where I can enjoy it. And I'm really enjoying it! In a German made Howal....

A few minutes away from smoking a blend in a baggie I forgot to label in a 2004 smooth long stem Canadian Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3.
So how was the baggie blend? :pipe:Quote:

Vile. It was a sample of a blend a friend tried. I'll try to be objective if he ever asks me what I thought of it, though.Quote:

Having some Drew Estate Gatsby Luxury Flake in a MM Legend.
This is a very nice Virginia blend. It's a more flavorful, fuller version of Orlik Golden Sliced.
Now smoking Year 1926 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed in a very much appreciated 1979 brown, slight bend grain etched flat front Stanwell Rego 969-48 (09) with a black vulcanite stem. A bottle of Coke made with pure cane sugar is my drink.
In a bier? You need a Zombie pipe. :)Quote:

Kaywoodie, yes, I believe you're correct. Now I remember - I bought 2 kaywoodies new-old-stock on e-bay a while back. I pitched the other one as it was a horrible smoker and had a bad mouth feel.Quote:

Yeah...depending on the year, Kaywoodie's can be very hit or miss. I have had some that are excellent, and others that weren't even fit to be wall hangers. I find that most older ones are quality though.Quote:

Almost finished smoking Heine's Blend in the very first pipe I ever bought ($2.49) in 1974; a smooth three quarter bend Dr. Grabow Omega with a black vulcanite stem. I did finish work though.
Part way through this bowl of Stonehaven in a 1998 smooth medium bend Peterson Limerick 69 with a nickel band with a black vulcanite p-lip stem. Simply Apple, the best durn apple juice made today is my drink.
Ag Flake is a VA/DFK blend. It is either topped or the VAs are of the sweeter variety. It is lovely stuff.Quote:
