    A New Pipe Novel

    Don't know why it took me this long to see this post, but I wrote that book. Yes, it does heavily feature a pipe. And yes, Anthony, it is available in paper. The released book is a bit different than the serialized version that was up on the blog so long ago, although the broad strokes are the...

    Should you or would you name that pipe?Help,I\'m being pressured.

    It's easy to name your pipes when you have a few or even a dozen. Once you get up toward 50 or more, you'll be hard pressed to remember what you called them.

    Best Walmart Pipe Tobacco

    By the way, Walmart may offer discounts on lots of products, but tobacco isn't one of them. If the convenience is worth it, go for it, but I'm sure you can find cheaper options that are only slightly less convenient.

    Best Walmart Pipe Tobacco

    My Walmart stocks Prince Albert by the tub, but, seeing as my Walmart is Walmart Store #1, there may be a lot of differences.

    An ALL Day Pipe

    My advice would be to have two all-day pipes if you're nervous. What I like to do in those situations is alternate between two pipes over the course of the day and then give them a longer rest of at least a week. The easy alternative is to get yourself an MM Diplomat and go to town. I have no...

    Storing tobacco in an Altoids tin?

    It's an interesting idea, but for only a few days, I'd just use ziplock bags.

    When To Change CornCob Pipe ??

    Fred, a lot of the Freehand shanks crack. If you contact MM, they will replace it, since they're aware of the problem. Also, while you're on the phone with them, you should consider the new natural line. The General, Diplomat, Country Gentleman and Patriot are now available without the smooth...

    When To Change CornCob Pipe ??

    They take very little care, really. Just keep going. If it starts to get bitter, scrape a little of the cake off with a pipe knife, rinse it with some whiskey, dry it out and light it up. They can last decades.

    pipe clubs

    We generally don't have those kinds of clubs in the US either. We just gather with other smokers to share tobacco, stories and companionship, regardless of the pipe being smoked (or if there is even a pipe at all).

    Peter Stokkebye English Luxury

    If you're having trouble getting into latakia blends, I recommend mixing some BCA with it to aid in your acclimation. I like a 50/50 mixture. Or you could try Just For Him's Whiskey Biscuit Gravy, which is essentially the same thing.

    Tobacco Funds Shrink as Obesity Fight Intensifies

    I'm glad the priorities are changing, but I think we can admit that "big tobacco" needed, at one point, to be fought. We're not talking about the current attitude of the tobacco industry — that responsible adults should have and exercise the right to decide if smoking is a habit they would like...

    Stokkebye VILLIGER 1888

    I bought some a couple months ago from Cup o Joes. Good stuff.
