@jfreedy Great minds must think alike. Had to do a lot of running around today, so I did something I've done only twice before in 2 years... I had a bowl in my car! Did some Sutliff Creme Brulee in a 47-49 (not sure) year old refurbished Jost Regent...
Started the afternoon with a bowl of Rattray's Red Rapparee in my Ascorti Business KS. Followed that with a bowl of Peterson's Special Reserve 2016 in my Danish Ben Wade by Preben Holm. Paired both with a new offering from Abita Brewing,
I'm starting to sound like a broken record because I'm still smoking Scotty's Trout Stream. It seems to be the only thing I reach for. Although last night I did have a hankering for Captain Black "Black Sea", and since the weather was nice enough to get back in the garage I had a bowl. But it's not something I'd ever try and smoke in the house. My wife will tolerate my aromatic blends ... but the campfire smell of a Latakia blend puts her off. And the scent seems to linger in the house longer, where as a pastry smelling aromatic seems to dissipate much quicker - and easily masked with a few sprays of aerosol room freshener.
Ended yesterday with some Lane BCA on the way back from renewing my CCW. Starting today with Lane RLP6 in one of, perhaps THE favorite of all my pipes, an Abb Brown bent Dinosaur Egg... Tnx @Corey562 ...
I wouldn't call it a rut, but I've been smoking D&R Athey a lot lately. It's a straight virginia that's been lightly cased. Sometimes I get a hint of sweetness but not strong enough to identify the casing. Normally straight Virginia bites or burns my tongue but for some reason this one doesn't.
@KA9FFJ and @pipeman83 - Thanks for the kind thoughts. I took a brief hiatus last fall due to a new job/promotion and then some health issues at the beginning of the year. I'm getting back into the swing of things and have missed all of the fine folks here at TPL.

Does anyone know anything about Peterson's made in London?
Just finished yard work and relaxing with some Sunset Rum in a reworked Mr. Brog #81 Maestro...
