What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

A couple of minutes or so away from smoking 2009 St. James Plug in a 1986 three quarter bend Bacchus face CAO meer.

Smoking a Rocky Patel Royal Vintage.
Pretty decent cigar. Especially at the price point.

Part way through this bowl of G&H Brown Irish Sweet Chocolate Rose in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer. This will finish the sample.

earlier...
2015 Red Ronnett's Sonnett (batch #2) in (The Beast) a 1985 Ser Jacopo L2 Maxima taper billiard.
Shoe polish would taste good in this pipe but the new batch of RRS is properly close to the last.

about to smoke...
2015 Red Ronnett's Sonnett (batch #2) in a 1950s Barling's Make Ye Olde Wood Straight Grain taper billiard.

Hope that y'all are having a great weekend.

Big changes going down at work have been keeping me extremely busy and it looks like the next six months will only get worse. It is, however, short term pain for long run gain. This has prevented me from posting as much as I like but so it goes as they say.

Just had a bowl of Davis and Son London Guard in "The Doodler". Tobacco was sent to me from a friend in Washington. Very mild sweet tobacco with just a touch of smokiness from the Latakia.
