What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

Thanks @Bruck

Half way through this bowl of Watch City Justice Mixture in a 2003 Ural full bend egg shaped Lattice meer. This finishes the sample.

Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem.

Had a fruitful meeting with two fine folks from Laudisi (Savinelli/Cornell & Diehl). Didn't smoke, but I'm saying this now: watch out for their new pipe tobacco line for BriarWorks, specifically Back Down South and Bacon Old Fashioned.

I'll also say this: Sav's new 311 KS is a pretty little pipe. They had one in the Spring finish and man-oh-man, I was dangerously close to taking it home with me.

Anyway, now that I'm back home & dinner is taken care of, and the weather is so decent all things considered, I'm headed outside with some Irish Flake in the Savinelli Author.

Jim's VaPer in my old reliable 1986 smooth Peterson Kildare 999 Rhodesian.

Drew Estate Meat Pie in a Grabow pot

I had a couple of bowls of Norwegian Blend by Peter Stokkebye.

Part way through this bowl of 1970s War Horse bar in a 2002 IMP smooth full bend egg shaped meer.

I concur. There are some real gems in the "bulk" aisle. Dunhill Nightcap is another one, albeit slightly more expensive than the Newminster 400.
