The world has lost another great pipe carver, Paolo Becker has died, smoking a bowl of Macedonia Mixture in a Paolo Becker blasted Rhodesian in his honor...
Pipe Of The Day (POTD)

Tonight it's PS Old Dark flake blended with PS Dark Truffle in a Peterson Rosslare 302. And finishing my second tin of tobacco is Escudo in a Savenilli 320.

It is sad that the world has lost another craftsman
Over an hour smoking 3/4 flake of Peterson's Irish Flake. I just love this tobacco.
C&D Bayou Morning in a Suffolk Dublin.
Very sad. Just learned about him the other day.
Midnight, a local Cavendish blend in a MM Legend
Dunhill Flake in the Meerschaum.
Handsome pipe.
FMOTT in a Comoy's 1988 Christmas. Haven't done the OTT in quite a while. I should revisit more often.
Home from work but still at work. Smoking come C&D Burley Flake 3 in a Tom Howard squat bulldog.
Some Haddo's Delight in a Mastro de Paja rusticated bent apple.
Kilroy6644
Smoking a corn dog in aviators and a top hat
Prince Albert in a MM Legend, with a mug of hot buttered rum on the side. In hindsight, probably not the best combination. Between Prince's mild flavor and the rum's not-so-mild flavor, the rum wins. I can barely taste the smoke at all. On the other hand, PA isn't one of my favorites, so I'm really not missing out on anything.
Nightcap in a rusticated Savinelli Hercules .....
Cornell & Diehl's Da Vinci in a self made African meerschaum Cumberland Cherrywood...
Dunhill Flake in the Meerschaum for breakfast today, I am really enjoying that tobacco as of recently.
Trying Stonehaven for the first time in my Tinsky Coral Liverpool. It's verrrrry subtle.
Edit: While it's pretty good now, I think that this blend will be much better with a couple years of aging on it. So, I'm gonna jar the rest of this up for long-term storage.

I wasn't impressed with Stonehaven either. Jarred the rest of the 8 ounces last year, and haven't touched it since. Might open it next year.
My first pipe tobacco over 14 years ago. I still love this blend. [emoji106]
