 Cold, dreary, and now with something of a mini-gale blowing hard outside, 😯. I shall take shelter with some Dark Flake, in the Savinelli Roma 123 and let it pass. |

Making up for missing my morning pipe today. Eight State Burley (2022) in a Savinelli billiard. Posing here with a beach found Buddha and some sea glass. Rain’s gone already and the sun is making its final encore. I’ll get around to dinner sooner or later.  |

After-dinner smoke time. Haunted Bookshop in the Thursday cob. Just in time to see the Mets walk off the Tigers. A good start to the season, at 5-1.

Rain’s gone already and the sun is making its final encore. I’ll get around to dinner sooner or later. What model is that? Very interesting rustication. Thanks Jon and Silver. It is a “Riccio”, which apparently means sea-urchin. It is a natural pipe with the rustication being reminiscent of a sea urchin. It came quite clean and bright, but as it’s handled and smoked the unfinished briar has darkened quite a bit. A nice workhorse pipe, smokes well and has a solid feel in the hand. |

MacBaren Acadian Perique from 2018.."Burley, Cavendish, Kentucky, Oriental/Turkish, Perique, Virginia" There is a lot going on with this blend, and it has done the melding dance well! Jiminks calls it a VaKyPer. In a PCoL POY, Poker.   |

Correction..."MacBaren Acadian Perique from 2018."
2015
MacBaren blends for whatever reason seem to soften with time more than any other blend that I know of. When fresh, the McBite name is appropriate for so many of their blends.

 It's a cool grey afternoon here in the Irish North West, wind is picking up. About to have me some Erinmore Flake in the Turkish Meer, 😋 Jon, nice composition and selections! |

It’s been a twelve hour workday, but for some reason I’m not feeling like settling down with a long smoke, so I’m smoking Kendal Dark in a TV churchwarden.
