My Budd III, this is my own blend of three different cigar leafs, Virginia and about 10% Turkish leaf. The jar I just opened has over 7 years of aging. This should be an excellent smoke.

Pipe of choice: restored Weber Scoop pipe. Wide diameter chamber with thick walls. Great smoking pipe for my cigar leaf blends.



KEEP ON PUFFING!!!
 
Just finished smoking C&D Burley Flake #4 in a 1980s Peterson 314 Full Bend black Sandblast system pipe with a black vulcanite p-lip stem.
 
Now smoking Watch City Persian Slipper in a 1975 three quarter bend black Dunhill Shell 52021 with a black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my evening drink. Watching the Cubs-Cards game.

Now smoking D&R Three Sails in a 1980s straight smooth Big Ben pot with a nickel band and a black vulcanite stem. This will get me to dinner time.
 
Dinner's running late so I'll get in another smoke: D&R Vengeur Platinum in a 1982 smooth slight bend straight grain Ben Wade Martinique freehand sitter with a wide top and a black vulcanite stem.
 
Seattle Pipe Club Plum Pudding in a restored Viking pipe with a 2" custom made dark chocolate stain rusticated briar Chimney bowl.



KEEP ON PUFFING!!!
 
Relaxing after a wonderful Middle Eastern dinner with a bowl of C&D Star of the East Gold in a full bend black pebble finish 2001 Rinaldo Lithos YY8 Titania Silver Line egg with a black acrylic stem.
 
McBaren Vintage Syrian with added Perique in a old Jarl pot Canadian, unusual shape for Jarl. It smokes everything wonderfully.
 
Stonehenge in a straight matte black Falcon with a smooth dark billiard bowl
 
Carter Hall, date on Mason jar 4/2007. Aging this old timer makes the smoke more complex. Very consistent smoke, with no hint of smoking a cigarette towards the end.

Pipe of choice: the custom made Billiard pipe called The Melting Pot. I made this pipe last year for my smoking pleasure. The briar ( so I was told from a seller at a pipe show ) was part of a collection of pipes and briar from Ben Wade that sold at an auction. Supposedly it's Algerian briar over 75 years old. The pipe is an excellent smoker and briar broke in easy with no issue.

Now smoking McClelland Christmas Cheer 1995 in a 1970s smooth GBD 9665 slight bend with a rough top flat bottom sitter with a black vulcanite stem.
 
Preparing my final smoke of the day, going to sit on the front porch.

Padron 1926, a favorite of mine. Also the year my Mom was born. You are missed by many but none more then me.



KEEP ON PUFFING!!!
 
C&D Odessa in a WDC Wellington for the last smoke of the day.
