Newminster No. 400 Superior Navy Flake in a Nording 2003 Ocaso rusticated egg. Thanks for the sample Ranger107.

Mike, how did you like the #400?

Some CS Black and Tan in the cob gifted by Mikem. Trying to calm down and recover from spilling a whole cup of coffee on the kitchen floor. Hope the rest of the day goes better, lol.

I would say it started out (medium) strong and then mellowed out. A little tangy IMHO to start out. An okay flake but I think there are better out there. As an FYI I rubbed out before putting in the pipe.

I posted this photo in the "accessories" forum as well; Rattray's Red Rapparee in my Peterson SH Mycroft, with my new Sherlock Holmes tamper ...

I felt the same except it never really tasted strong to me. As you said, okay, nothing bad, but nothing to write home about. Was hoping you would find it more enjoyable. Sorry.

CS Black & Tan in a MM Mark Twain. Okay but no comparison to Choctaw or Cowboy Coffee which are much better.

No worries I'm always wanting to try out different blends. This sample was appreciated.

Match Elizabethan Mixture in a Paul Perri freehand billiard/Lovit. Enjoying a beautiful morning with a cup of coffee.

A morning bowl of CF Lancers Slices in a Comoy Extraordinaire blasted Pot. Uber-strong New Mexican Pinon coffee makes for a great morning!! FTRPLT

 

[Ranger107]

4 Noggins Hobbits Weed in a Lorenzo magnum bent billiard with coffee. With the huge bowl on this one got nearly 2 hours of goodness.

 

[Ranger107]

Rivendell in a Savinelli Big 9 paneled billiard. Scored off Ebay for $40. Smokes okay but the pipe itself gets kind of hot sometimes. Never had this problem with any other Sav?

I've been smoking some Red Rapparee in a Comoy's Guildhall billiard.

 

[Ranger107]

Okay, that's like the 4th or 5th post on Red Rapparee in a couple of weeks. So this weekend I am popping the lid on a tin of 2016 RRR.

Right now, my own Urban Cowboy in the Mikem gifted cob. Canadian whiskey on the side.

13-year-old Balkan Sobranie Original in a big ol' Astley's (probably Charatan-made) 1/8th square-shank bent Dublin/Pot. Strong Cubano coffee to compliment!!!! FTRPLT

 

[ftrplt]

Followed by my first bowl of Esoterica's "Hastings" in a Boswell rusticated full bent! FTRPLT

 

[ftrplt]

Continuing to enjoy the morning puffing on Esoterica's "Pembroke" in a Bill Ashton-Taylor XXX Pebble Grain bulldoggy!! FTRPLT

I am smoking Torben Dansk Black Cavendish Ohne Flavour in a Svendborg while reading about the US Army Sargent S. Antolak (Medal of Honor Recipient)

 

[Brunello]

Thoroughly enjoying some creamy smooth Wilke Commander in a Design Berlin Prelude. Been a stressful week and since I only sit with a pipe if I'm relaxed enough to enjoy that means this is only the third bowl this week. But it's hit the spot - very relaxed now!

Country Squire Green Dragon in a Peterson

Sutliff 1 M vanilla in an Aldo Velani 2012 POTY with coffee. A bit awkward only having the use of one hand, lol. Smoke pipe, lay pipe down, sip coffee, put down coffee pick up pipe, try to tamp pipe while clinching without dropping pipe, etc. All in all, still a very enjoyable morning.
