Hello, everyone. Started the day a little late with coffee and a MM Country Gentleman filled with Match Victorian/Amphora Burley. Enjoying an extra day off, nothing much planned.

Spent the morning raking and running the mower in the corners of the yard that still had debris from two hurricanes. Should get it all finished this week since dry, warmer weather is expected. Smoking McClelland Jubilee in an old Charatan.  |

After running an errand of my wife, my son and I stopped at a local smoke shop, mostly cigars, cigs, vape and glass. Very little in the way of pipe tobacco (as expected), but came home with a handful of cigars for the humidor. May burn one this evening.
On topic, I'm smoking more of the Match Victorian/Amphora mixture in a cob. Hope you're all having a good day.

This 3 Noggins tin is one I’ve had for a while. I don’t smoke it regular, but I always enjoy it when I light it up. The only other tobacco I’ve ever smoked that was anything like this was Tom Cotton Smyrna. Are these what are considered English blends? I want to try something new, but am limited to what I can find at my b&m because of Washington’s laws. They have a tin of Presbyterian in there, but it’s spendy. Is that something along these same lines?

Just had some Penzance in an estate Peterson I just bought this morning. Liking the wraparound grain on this one, too. Nice pickup. And I use softy bits, as well. |

Gonna grab a beer to go along with the pizza. You smoke more blends I've never heard of in a day than any 3 people I know. Comes from spending most of my time at home and spending too much money on tobacco in 2020. I'm blaming it on COVID. I'm also not a one-blend kinda guy. I like a little variety. I have a bunch of English-style blends that I am just getting interested in again. At some point during the winter, they'll make up a good share of the daily rotation. |

I was just kidding you about that. Plus I don't care about teeth marks on my good pipes as I'm going to be the last one to smoke them. (during my lifetime) |
