Starting my morning off with some FVF courtesy of Mr. Ireland in an old no name estate bent Dublin I was given for Xmas. It's old, beat up, the edge of the bowl is worn from being is someone pocket for years but it smokes like a champ.
 
Uhle's Blend 300 in a Wally Frank Giant Lovat.. Sunshine and 44.F
 
McC Oriental #1 in my Thomas James Freehand. This is from one of the tins from 1996 that I got from Mike(m2j3t6) in December. Mild yet flavorful, burned down to a pure white ash. Great smoke for the morning.

Behike, how are you liking the GH Dark Flake? One of my faves!! :cheers:


Lovely so far. The problem was the B & M was filled with a lot of "Ghurkafied" air, if you get what I am saying? I can't wait to smoke some by myself, but I enjoyed it VERY MUCH!


Btw, it's sunny and warm here in southern IN. Thanks to puros_bran, I will be enjoying some aged Penzance on the balcony! Blam-O!
 
Wonderful sunny day for wood chopping. Villiger 1888 Late Night in a Carey Large Flame Billiard..
 
Because of Kyle's inquiry about Rattray's Jocks Mixture, I had to pop open a 10 year old aged tin and load up a Caminetto Business Billiard. This is a wonderful MILD Scottish blend with just a touch of Latakia, some fine Virginias and a portion of Cavendish to smooth out the blend.
 
Couldn't make up my mind before I left for work, so I grabbed a small baggie from my potpourri jar. It's a mix of whatever tiny bits of VA-based blends I have that were left over in the bottom of tins, or samples that I received that I didn't care for "straight".

I smoked three bowls of the stuff today in a no-name half-bent. The tobacco is very, VERY good right now!

Hey Doc.. Bet you wished you would not have waited.. Could have been hit by a train Brother...
Had a beautiful smoke of FVF in a Sav Auto #5 with company at the pub.. Good night here.. Smoke it if you got it Brothers.. :cheers:
 
I am so new I glow green and am already spoiled.

I asked about something involving perique since I have been feasting on Lat bombs this week. Was at the B&M today and wanted something to open the palate and they were out anything that fit the bill in tins. ANYWAY, god bless this guy, he didn't even have a house blend to offer so he mixed somethings together for me. A+ for effort and customer service. D+ for execution.


Bummer.......
 
Had a bowl of Boswells Peaches and Cream last night in my Emin Meer...what a great combo.
 
Very nice sunny cool morning here.. Had a walk outside with a bowl of Altadis Blue Note in a Dr. Grabow Riviera Canadian..
 
On the way to work: Boswell's Piper's Pleasure in a basket.

At work: Prince Albert in a cob. (my first taste of PA because someone at work gave it to me. Definitely very "old school" tasting/smelling. I'll smoke it again, but it's definitely not my favorite.)
 
Lion's vs Saint's day for me.. Just returned from wood hauling chores while smoking a bowl of Germain's Brown Flake in a Wally Frank Carved Rhodesian.. Very good smoking after this was given age and some air.. Go Lion's ya need a prayer.. :cheers:
 
SG Chocolate Flake in a Jobey Rustic Strawberry (shape, not wood)
 
On the way to my first stop on my route ... Uhle's Old Shoe in a Dr. Grabow Royal Duke, not the drugstore kind, but the $40 kind at Uhle's ... :lol:
