A few days ago I did a neighbor a favor and moved everything off her patio because her building was being power washed and painted. Took me a while, but if I’m feeling okay I don’t mind helping anyone. Today she handed me a package of five cigars, she’s a cigar smoker as well. So, she gave me her favorite smoke....Drew Estate Java Latte box pressed. Smells like coffee, down here it’s a $7.50 to $9.00 stick if sold individually. Has a nice smooth light Connecticut wrapper. Not usually a flavored cigar type of guy, but I’m going to sit on the back deck and light one up👍 Hell of a neighbor you have coyote!

Some Savinelli Brunello Flake in the Rattray Triskele 14 pipe with a newly opened growler of Breakside Tall Guy IPA along side. Great pairing!

Finished work, had another small snack and am now smoking year 1936 Briggs Mixture in a 1977 straight black rusticated Sir Brent billiard with a silver band repair and a brown pearl grey acrylic stem. Watching Licence to Kill.

DGT Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a sandblasted Savinelli bent billiard with a vulcanite stem. For whatever reason, setting the pipe down for an hour has really brought out the flavor of this blend. I’m drinking a Canada Dry Club Soda neat.

Billy Budd Blonde in a cob. Rootbeer snuff in the nose. After this pipe, I'm going to inventory my cellar and see which blends I need to stock up on. The Root Beer is my second favorite.

Jeez... cellar inventory finished. I have roughly 12 lbs of bulk jarred up to age and 30 tins doing the same. That doesnt include the ~20 jars and bags I'm smoking out of. Where did all of this come from in just 4 months? Lighting a bowl of Red Odessa in my Casseloni Oom Paul. Thank you again @lonecoyote for suggesting both. roadsdiverged You have the right idea. Between the current anti-smoking climate in Washington and the recent Supreme Court ruling, now is the time to load up for the future. Within the next few months, more and more states are going to force the online merchants to collect tax and/or report untaxed sales. I believe several states have started. The only saving grace might be a conservative Supreme Court. The hope being they will interpret the states action as Unconstitutional, for violating the 14th amendment - impediting the flow of interstate commerce. It’s a long shot, but you’ve got to have hope.

Our politicians seem to forget about the Constitution quite often. That's as far as I'll go with that. I'm going to order a few pounds of Red Odessa, Bayou Night and Billy Budd Blonde this week. There's a few more I might add 8 oz. to a pound of. My little snuff container that I take to work was almost empty this morning. It's been a long day at work with no nicotine.

Boswell's Northwoods date on jar 2011, should be more enjoyable with age.
Pipe of choice: Charatan Supreme 18kt gold band straight grain #1 Purchased at a garage sale a while back for $10.00!!! The guy running the garage sale did not believe me when I told him the band was gold. He actually looked at me as if I were nuts. 👍👍

My preference is "Absolut". The old Absolut potato vodka as I remember was excellent. Now when I look at Absolut at the ABC stores here in NC all are made from grain. I don’t see it available online, I guess that’s also a goner as well.
