Some EGR in a bent diamond-shank pot, a house pipe from The Pipe Rack; a long-gone Wichita shop and sorely missed...

What is your impression of the EGR?

Match Field and Stream in a Comoy's Tintoretto Lorenzo inspired smooth pot.

Some of my own blend, SWR, black cav, and McB ODF in a MM general. Think I will add a bit more ODF and call it Urban Cowboy, lol.

It's become kind of my go-to. Nutty, a trace of sweetness and just a whisper of Latakia. Great aroma in the tin (or should I say in the plastic?) but since I'm almost never around anyone else when I'm smoking I can't attest to the room notes. The cut is such that I can fill a pipe easily while fishing, hunting or just walking which is important to me. Just a good all-around tobacco I think.

Welcoming spring with some Stonehaven in this new-to-me Ferndown 3 Star:

Tried something new. McB 7 seas royale in a pipa croci. Not bad but probably won't buy again. Sort of bland.

Spilman's Mixture in an old modified MM 1/8th bamboo-shanked cob (one from Sante's collection). FTRPLT

The Guard is "on duty" ready to set the alarm in case of an enemy patrol will show up.

Stanwell Vanilla.

Quiet walk enjoying CS Rivendell in a Savinelli Tortuga 614. First time sending from my phone, not so bad, though I prefer looking at the site on the larger computer screen.

Same here but easier to use my phone on the patio vs. bringing out the laptop. Rivendell in a Don Carlos one note large full bent apple, almost an oom paul.

Weybridge in a Pete Derry bent pot with coffee. Quiet peaceful morning watching a covey of quail running about.

D&R Acadian Black in a Pipa Croci, pairing with apple brandy and perique liqueur spiked coffee and heavy cream.

Just a bit more bend in that pipe and it would look just like mine, lol.

Your mention of one inspired me to dust it off! This thread is great when I don’t know what to smoke haha. I’ve got another Croci that actually smokes a little better but isn’t much to look at, no texture to the rustication—but this one is gorgeous, just about as deep a rustication on any pipe I own.

Mine smokes great even though it's a one note. I have another 2 note, good looking pipe and very large but only likes certain tobaccos. Can get a little hot with virginia blends which is odd but does fine with heavy burlies.

Mac Baren Seven Seas Royal in a Paul Perri smooth free hand Lovut.

Carter Hall in a long-stemmed bent cob!

 

[ftrplt]

Followed by MacB's Golden Extra in another long-shanked bent cob (another from Sante's estate).

C&D Pashas Dream in a Vauen rusticated full bent. Okay, not great. Not sure why I even bought this. Should have read the TR reviews, lol. Honey bourbon on tbe side helps.
