    Cigars an Aeromatic Smoker Might Enjoy

    Flavored cigar...no way. Partagas Black Label Maduro Gigante. 6 x 60 no better way to go. The flavor is TOBACCO. These guys know cigars. Listen and enjoy. Happy New Year! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkr4CcpDGNs

    What's closest thing to Penzance?

    I love Penzance; smoke a bowl every evening and I am the fella who "commissioned" Sterlings 1776 American Patriot. It has an almost identical pouch aroma and it offers a similar smoke experience. Unfortunately, Jack Peterson is unable to press his tobacco so it is not exactly the same. It is...

    Pipes & Stash....

    Great stash brother. Now it's time for you to concentrate upon another great stache. Nothing better than a beard for a pipe smoker and a great mustache gets you on the road. Like an American Express Card, once you have a mustache or a beard you'll never leave home without it and your favorite...

    Can't Find the Hole

    Through the nose...

    Once you get used to a good heavy cigar, your sinus will appreciate a tasty smoke. The only problem is deciding whether you want your pipe or your cigar. Oy vey, problems....

    Thoughts on "giant" pipes?

    I'm a clencher and my largest pipes are my favorites. I have a large Mario Grandi, an even larger Nording and most recently I've acquired a Savinelli Hercules 619EX which is just great. Nothing better for a long slow heavy lat blend. I'm not a big man, but man do I love a big smoke. Large pipes...

    Tattoos and corporate buttmonkeying

    Baron: I'm retired now but I was a New York City hospital administrator for ten years. I supervised the chief engineer as well as most every other department in a 254 bed urban teaching community hospital. I can tell you that anyone with common sense knows that a competent maintenance employee...

    What Are You Smoking - September 2012

    A large Claude Romain bowl filled with my own mix of Storm Front and Partagas cigar leaf. Absolutely pumped smoke for a clenching man to start the morning off properly. Highly recommended for enjoyment of a luscious pipe along with the true cigar experience all rolled into one.

    Smooth Pipes Tend To Smoke Better Than Sandblasted

    I have both smooth and sandblasted pipes in my 33 bowl collection. I have not found any difference in the quality of the smoke although I prefer the feel of a smooth bowl and the beauty of the smooth brier. I also find that they both smoke equally hot or cool depending upon technique. I'm a...

    Moustache Note

    I've always felt that the aroma of tobacco in my stache and beard is man cologne. As a matter of fact my everyday cologne is a spray of "Cigar" by Remy Latour which is made in Paris.

    Getting Educated

    My criteria is bowl size. Small bowls just don't make the cut for me. Bent or straight, a large thick walled bowl can always be half filled or half smoked but a small bowl just does not produce the flavor quality or depth that a large bowl delivers. Once you smoke a Savinelli Hercules or a...

    Cigar Butts?

    I am primarily a pipe smoker, however, I enjoy the hell out of a Partagas Black Label oscuro stick. I always have a box on hand and I smoke about one cigar every two weeks. I also keep a small jar of cigar leaf that I grind from a butt in a coffee mill. Well, this morning I added the cigar...

    Smoking In The House

    Numbersix: Good luck with your quest. The problem I'm preparing you for is your future love of latakia blends and your pleasureable experience of smoking indoors. Whatayagonnado....when you light a bowl of sheer heaven in your favorite chair and you're told you are stinking up the house? That's...

    Into Shooting?

    Men: My question was knowledge of the Crimson Trace ....Infrared....laser. This is a new item and I think the infra red track is invisible to the naked eye. I suspect only the dot on the target shows. I was just wondering if this is true and if any of you have knowledge or experience with this...

    Smoking In The House

    jtaggie320: Query.....Who is the man in your house? Who wears the pants? Who pays the bills? Seems to me a good man woman relationship requires a bit of manly assertiveness. Grow your balls and smoke your pipe. When it comes to allergies you should become allergic to bullshit. It makes for...
