A point I have to remind myself of when buying pipe tobacco.

But I don't think it's apples to apples though - I seem to take in a lot more vitamin N from a bowl of firm pipe tobacco, than from an equivalent amount of tobacco from a cigar, say ~1.5" or so. & while I can smoke a large cigar over a couple hours, I could never smoke a whole tin of pipe tobacco in that time.

Today is Wendy's B-Day, so I fired up a blend she likes. (2015) Autumn Breakfast in my DG Lark.

MacBaren Golden Extra in a 1979 brown grain etched Lane Era Charatan's Make medium bend double comfort stem calabash shape 483DC.

Not far from finishing this bowl of Smoker’s Pride Rich Taste in a 1970s medium bend smooth Ben Wade Golden Walnut freehand.

Ramsgate in a 2003 medium bent Ural meer with a lined and etched egg shaped bowl.

The last of my stash of 2014 McClelland Christmas Cheer in a 2002 quarter bend sandblasted Stanwell Golden Danish 139.

Mixture "B" in a 1985 Ser Jacopo Renaissance #313 taper apple. Still lacking body but evolving to where it's supposed to be.
