Relaxing after eating a ton of baby back ribs and black eye peas with a big hunk of chocolate meringue pie for dessert. Don't think I can move out of this chair, folks. Luckily, the trusty Saint Bernard is standing guard over my tobacco cellar with his musket and rocket launching chipmunks, so don't any ideas about raiding my stash while I'm stuffed with food. Thanks to our young enticing nubiles bringing me tobacco and a pipe, I am now smoking the best durn tobacco made today: Strang in a 1999 medium bend black sandblast Savinelli Tris 677KS apple with a cumberland stem.

Now smoking Sir Walter Raleigh in a black 1997 Brebbia Jubilee 925 silver banded grain sandblast briar calabash with a black acrylic stem. I'll probably finish the day with this smoke. Suzy slept under her blanket for almost six hours, and she's been making up for lost attention time ever since.

Last smoke at work: Mystery Blend of leftovers in MM Legend. Instant coffee. Then home where ODF awaits in a Goussard workshop poker. Methinks a dram of Scotch will do me well.

No scotch, it's only 930am here😁

No scotch, it's only 930am here😁 Nah, single malts on weekends and special occasions. Usually the best blends I can afford that are blended and bottled in Scotland and often cheap and nasty before payday As far as pairing goes I have not experimented much, but found that 1792 and ODF goes very well with heavy peaty single malts...straight no ice.

A neutral spirit like Jewel of Russia Classic vodka pairs very well with just about any smoke. It is a very high quality vodka with robust flavor, viscosity, and spice.
