    The Most Disappointing Tobacco

    Watch City Simply Red (zero flavor) Watch City Rouxgaroux Red Hunt (absolutely horrible) Krampusnacht Pease Vanilla Cream Jolly Old St. Nicholas MM Country Gentleman To sum things up, I like very few VaPers or just straight virginias... I'm more of a sucker for burley and latakia.

    Differences between Cringle Flake and Krampusnacht?

    So, I'm normally not a huge straight/dominant virginia fan, leaning more towards latakia and burley. That being said, I love Cringle Flake 2021... I've smoked it after aging a few months and I've smoked it after a couple of years. The smell of the bready/vinegary/fermented/tangy virginias is...

    Buying Multiples of the Same Pipe

    Lots of Peterson 53, 304, and 306 duplicates. My favorite smokers but also beautiful, so I like to have copies unsmoked for show. MM Southport Ferryman also duplicated... Just a perfect cob.

    Initial Thoughts on Wilke Pipe Blends

    If you like latakia and also some aro, the Sweet and Smoky Chocolate is really good.

    Is a Zippo Suitable for Pipes?

    Don't really care for the looks, but large capacity, built in tools, filling of lighter and flame adjust without needing removal of screws or extra tools. The utilitarian lighter.

    Is a Zippo Suitable for Pipes?

    Very suitable for pipes with the insert. My negatives are that I can always taste the fuel when lighting with them, and the capacity is low compared to traditional pipes lighters. I also prefer pipe tools built into the lighter.

    Have a small office with rabbit air. That's for winter. Rest of the year is our screened in back porch.
