Irish flake in the 313. Turning into one of my favorite blends. One flake fits perfectly in this pipe. If it wasn’t as strong nic wise, it would be an all day smoke. Fantastic flavor with no bite.

I definately got the muted flavors that i’ve heard about in Meerschaum. I also heard after about 15-20 bowls it goes away. Overall enjoyable smokes. I kept looking at the pipe. I really like it.

I find that a blend that shines in a meer continues to shine, no matter how many rounds you put through it. Hunting for those blends is the fun part
I've never been able to smoke but one small meer enough to get past the muting. I gave it away to a traveling forum con man from Montreal that likes to walk while he smokes.

Finishing up some Ryback in the stanwell 77. Probably load some two timer in the Kolding after this and call it a day

Last pipe of the evening . . . Three Sails . . . Kaywoodie Natural Blast Pot . . . Diet Soda.

This pipe arrived last evening . . . removed most of the bowl coating with an Everclear soaked cotton ball . . . beveled the rim . . . dressed up the tenon. I'm pleased overall with the pipe for the minimal investment . . . should be a nice serviceable pipe.

With punctuation this is really interesting. “Red wine, soup in the Ben Wade, Pot again. Cheerwine on the side.”

Helluva evening 😂

It's a friend's tobacco recipe. 50% McClelland's 5100 Red Cake. I don't know what else.
