Smoking some Balkan Sobranie Original Mixture 1972 in a Scott Klein Signature Grade Calabash with Bamboo Stem. Typically pair this tobacco with an Islay Scotch, but settled on a sweet bourbon instead. My Old Boy, a pipe tamper of my own making, and some letter writing with a birth year Montblanc 149 that has a custom ground tip, round out the evening.

I hope you gentleman and ladies are smoking something you truly enjoy.

Cheers!

@pipingtenor2570 , welcome to the Cadre, nice to see another pipe smoker here. We have a number of guys that enjoy pipes. Be sure to stop over to the newbies and welcome thread and introduce yourself.

Thank you for the warm welcome. I apologize for not having introduced myself yet, I'll take care of that now.

I see a fountain pen too?

You're right, NurseDave. I typically always write with a fountain pen, and have a modest collection of both vintage and modern pens. That pen is a birth year Montblanc 149, gold nib, with a custom ground tip. It's one of my very best writers.

Tonight's smoke is in a Yeti Pipes Eskimo. High contrast dyed. Stuffing the pipe with some McClelland Blakney's Best Acadian Ribbon. Pipe tamper is of my own making. Gaboon Ebony, Amboyna Burl with an internal brass pick tool.

Cheers!

Ye ole Quorum Maduro! I've been known to enjoy one from time to time, NurseDave. My friend from Canada calls them "dog walkers". He says they're not good enough to sit down and enjoy, but enjoyable enough to smoke while walking the dog and bagging turds. . I'm of the opinion that the best cigar is the cigar you're enjoying right now, regardless of price or label. Enjoy!
