I'm almost out of the 965. Just have a bowl or 2 left is all. I'll have to keep an eye out for that Black Mallory. Sounds like something I'd like. My biggest problem here is that I live in Washington State. Can't seem to find any on line vendors that ship here do to the state tax issues. There is a Tinderbox and a Tribal tobacco shop that carry some tins. But you pay for it. I think the 965 was something like $20. I have a few tins aging of stuff that interested me to try that I got from the tribal shop. Still enjoying the Prince Albert and Carter Hall for everyday smokes.
I am sitting outside while having fun watching in the Forum. The pipe is a Savinelli 673 KS Roma Lucite. Tobacco is „Jock“ from South Africa. Nice caramel mixed with burley.
Never been much of a beer guy, but I do like Orlik Golden Sliced, and I like any pipe shape in the Canadian family. That looks like an oval shank with a saddle bit, making it a Lumberman. Nice!
Just warm enough to enjoy a pipe on the deck today. Rattray’s Black Mallory in a 43 year old Stratford’s Copper Grain bent, accompanied by some ginger black tea, with our yellow lab Gunner napping beside me.
