    Rattery's In Stock At Smoking Pipes Limit 10

    That's always been on my list to try, but I can never find it. That being said- I'm lazy and just check when I'm browsing. So its not like I'm spelunking for it. Something in Aro's agitates the roof of my mouth, but I've heard good things about that one.

    Rattery's In Stock At Smoking Pipes Limit 10

    Marlin Flake (just tins left) and Red Rapparee (can & tin) are two of my favorites. Hadn't seen them in a bit. Just a heads up. (Use the link on the side to SP.com) Best- JAH

    Savinelli Estella question

    Hi Scott. I can't confirm what it is, but I've had similar results when I applied Halcyon wax improperly to a rusticated pipe. I wonder if a warm heat gun or hair dryer would let you dab it off with some cotton balls. If I remember right I had to softly remove mine with a "blunt" needle I found...

    "Travel" smoking kit (Hiking, fishing, etc)

    Anthony. I love that roll up. I use a cheap canvas roll up, I got off Amazon. It's for pencils/pens/artists paint brushes. I can fit 2 pipes, lighters, cleaners, and tamper in it. Slides right into my backpack side pouch.

    The Burley & The Briar in Bloomington, Indiana

    I stopped there a few years ago when attending a conference. Great store. Even some coworkers who were with me and not pipe smokers enjoyed browsing through the shop. Crash- if you get up near South Bend, lemme know- I'll buy you a pint.

    Hate-Love Relationships with Blends?

    Rattray's Red Rapparee. I used to be think "WTF, this just tastes like ash". Until I air pocketed it in a old Hilson because it was the only tobacco I had at work. Then all of a sudden it was subtle and "citrus". Now it's on my "grab a tin list" whenever I order.

    2015 MM Reverse Calabash Three Years Later

    C. Embers. I smoke the 2018 and I like it a lot, but man that new stem collects a lot of moisture. I smoke indoors, dry tobacco, but it's such a long smoke, it ends up looking like a greenhouse in there. I don't have one, but I like the stem on the old one better...the 2018 design seems like...

    They Were A Sour Lot In Old Time Connecticut And Indiana.

    Heck in South Bend Indiana we only just recently (2018) received the ability to buy alcohol on Sundays. A whole different kind of self pollution.

    Yeah I really like that. I keep looking at Ardor...but they just seem so heavy. I need to see them in person I think. Congrats.
