77 Pages! Either you fellas are thirsty for baccy or I've missed some new members! Just packed up some GasLight. I've been smoking Ries' three star blue all day and I needed a change. I'm wondering how I'm gonna get rid of all this three star actually. Haha Good stuff. Like an aronatic CH with a touch of the black stuff, but as a guy who favours variety, a 7oz tin is a real commitment. When I get a 7 ounce tin, I jar 4 ounces immediately and will jar smaller amount later, if I don't want to finish it at the time.

William........beautiful Ben Wade.....excellent smoking pipes👍👌👍 Thanks, Ted. I bought that at a local Tinder Box in the late 1970s. So it is not an English Ben Wade--but a Danish (I think) one.

Big fat pipe full of of Dunbar. I hate to say it, but add all the toppings you want. Add all the latakia, Kentucky, perique.. Nothing tops a bowl of true, quality Virginia. It's like smoking hay, honey, and raisins. Sunshine in a pipe. Jamming some Buffalo Springfield. New to me, but it's pretty boss. A note on The Buffalo Springfield. A 5 CD boxed set of all their albums remastered (in mono and stereo) just came out today.I am ordering one for sure. This is the first time their music has been remastered. The set is worth buying for "Expecting To Fly" alone.

Half way through this bowl of Esoterica Dunbar in a smooth straight late ‘50s, early 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad, too! My second Conrad pipe. Ice water and bergs is my evening drink.

Quick cob of MM 965. Was a very hot day decking a porch. Now that I'm home and cooled off, I don't want to spend much more time outside.

The sun is down and it's not blistering hot. Just finished Amphora Original in a cob. Somehow, I've managed to make it last over 40 minutes with no relight. It's ok though, I have a lot on my mind that needs sorting out.

Ted, I’m curious to know your thoughts. I have a tin from earlier this year. I prefer to let most C&D blends age a year before opening. Please share your impressions.
