Lovely pipe! How was the inaugural smoke?
It was good, though it's been long enough since I smoked a straight VA that I was reminded of just how much tongue bite there is if you're not careful! I tend to smoke a little faster than the VA likes, so had to consciously slow down a few times.

The shop owner had a drawing last night for a some tins from his personal stash. Each winner got to pick one from the table. I picked a tin of St. James Flake dated 2019. I'll probably let that age a few more years.

Bright VAs force me to slow down and be patient as well. I usually use them breaking in a new pipe for that reason. Red and dark VAs don't bite so hard.

I think you'll enjoy that St. James flake.
