    Why Do Cigars Smell Different?

    Why? I have never smelt any pipe tobacco that smells like a cigar. I have cut up a cigar and smoked it in a pipe... still smells like a cigar :) I like the smell of pipes and I like cigars. Just curious why they smell so completely different.

    Need Advice on C&D Burley Flake #3.

    First off, this stuff is good! That's my official review haha! Anyway, I am having a devil of a time keeping it lit. Anyone have any experiences with this blend? Does it need to dry some? Do I need to rub it out a lot more and pack it light? I am only on my second bowl from the tin I received...

    Briar Fox First Impressions.

    I haven't seen this blend talked about very much on here so I figured I would give y'all my thoughts on it. I don't consider myself knowledgable enough to give a formal review, so I'll just speak my mind. First of all I am a big fan of Classic Burley Kake and Carter Hall, so was expecting...

    Visiting New Orleans this Weekend

    Hey guys, me and the wife are going to be in New Orleans this Sunday for the Guns and Roses concert. Thinking about checking out Don Leoncio cigar bar on canal street since it's a few blocks away from were we are staying. Haven't had a cigar in years, but I figure it might be a place to kick...

    Will Classic Burley Kake Survive The FDA?

    I have just discovered this blend. CBK in a cob and some strong coffee, this stuff is so good! I have been smoking mostly LNF and my palette needed a little something different. This is finally an aromatic that I can see loving. I see that the H&H marquee series is going away. Any danger of...

    A Question About Nicotine Content

    How is the nicotine content measured in different blends? The reason I ask is this. I usually smoke PS Luxury Navy Flake and Bullseye flake which is rated at medium and I get hardly any nic hit from it. I recently purchased a tin of Drew Estate Gatsby Flake for the free shipping from Pipes and...

    Mr. Brog 2nd Broken Stem Repair Ideas

    The original and replacement stem broke in the exact same way. I waited until the next day to remove both stems for cleaning, the 9mm filter bits are weak in that spot. Repair ideas. Need to figure out how to make this fit, military mount I am thinking. Or river cane church warden...

    Tongue Bite After Eating

    I have wondered why a blend that would agree with me one day would light my tongue and upper palate up the next. I think I have narrowed it down. Anything acidic, salsa for example, or really crunchy croutons (I guess they make tiny scratches on my upper palate). Anyone ever notice this?

    Peter Stokkebye Luxury Twist Flake And A Story

    Good Evening All, If you will, let me share a story. Cruising these forums have given me a case of TAD. I recently stopped by The Briary and bought a couple ounces each of Peter Stokkebye luxury twist, luxury navy flake and luxury bullseye flake to try out. I tried the twist flake in a kaywoodie...

    Peterson's Deluxe 406 Antique Store Find.

    Dropped into an antique store on the way home from work and I found this. It was pretty clean. I just used a magic eraser to remove the stem oxidation. My first Peterson pipe. I think it's a prince shape. I think it was a good deal for $10.

    A Lazy Sunday With Carter Hall.

    I have been working my way through a tin of petersons Irish oak lately, but this morning I figured I would load a bowl with carter hall. So with my kaywoodie large apple and a strong cup of black coffee I headed to the porch. That bowl was pretty good so I loaded up again while my daughter road...
