How's that pipe smoking Jim?

almost finished...
2015 Mixture "A" in a (date unknown) Ser Jacopo L1 lovat. 2nd smoke in this pipe - it's a keeper. "A" still too light and lacks proper nuance but making progress.

I agree and I consider Gawith Hoggarth at the head of the class but I understand (and know that you do too) that they're not for everyone.

OK, I see that no one skipped :)

Samuel Gawith (as a lady)
She's an elegant beauty who moves in undulating waves. Sparse are her words but perpetual her affect. She can't be romanced but you must romance to win her. Slow to love, she loves in confidence and with the brush of her lip.

McClelland (as a lady)
She's sure that she's prettier but she's not always sure. Her flit turns to sway with the slightest glance. She flirts and is fickle, expensive to keep but she loves like a panther finding it's kill.

Gawith Hoggarth (as a lady)
She hugs when she meets and kisses to greet. Her figure is ample and her clothes a size tight. She laughs with gusto, drinks with bravado, is she too brazen. She keeps many lovers but when she is with you, there is only one.

@NeverBend : the pre-rep Pete is an awesome smoker. It's a good looker and clencher, too.

Ennerdale and the Bright CR flake are the only ones I've tried, and I've loved both. Ennerdale I instantly loved, and though I am usually very good about keeping TAD in check, 500g of that is on the agenda for the near future. I am only a bowl a day smoker, so that will last me a good long time. But then I tried the CR flake, and thought "damn, I could go for a pound of this too, so light and pleasant!"

That's the way she goes with tobaccy...

Enjoying a bowl of Red Odessa in a Sav 320 this afternoon. Good thing I love C&D so much, 25 bucks a pound during the SP sales they run a few times a year!

MacBaren Symphony in a mid-70s slight bend black sandblasted English Rustic 120 billiard.

Wbat I'm having, Chico @Chico.Ortiz108) sent me. Maybe laced with some New Mexico desert plant? Tastes good.

Cromwell (as before) in a 1970s Caminetto Business #104 saddle billiard. This is from an older batch that was pressed (4 days). Virginia has moved forward, more than anticipated, but it's rather interesting,

Edit:
George, @GWBowman ),
I didn't remember sending you "E" but the jar says "Ep" (that I think I sent to you)?
