    Buying Tobacco from Indonesia

    Hello, Searching the web for certain tobaccos, after turning many pages in google and bing, I came across Indonesian online stores. They had some brands I was actually interested in. The exchange rate if I have it right are beyond belief, meaning cheap/borderline free. Anyone have...

    Buying Tobacco Abroad

    Hello, I have a general question. As we all know, certain tobaccos available overseas are very difficult to procure in one’s own country due to the myriad of restrictive laws and other legal liabilities. For instance, being in the US, most of Europe is out of bounds for buying tobacco. There are...

    Syrian Latakia

    I’m sure this has been discussed at length, but why is it that Syrian Latakia is no longer available? Is it the political situation over there?

    Flake Tobacco

    A newbie question. I tried my first flake tobacco (C&D Star of the East). While I found it very good, I think my ”crumbling” technique could be improved. It seemed like the coarse texture didn’t lend well to packing and keeping lit. What is the best way to break down the flake for optimum...

    Pipe and Tobacco Shelf Ideas

    In viewing the many instructive Youtube videos on pipe smoking, I found myself admiring the many neatly ordered tobacco and pipe collections using shelves and desks. Alas, while I do not see the wife concurring to any smoking in the house, being a newbie and just starting a collection, I am...

    It Will Only Get Worse

    I have no doubts that the US is still in a better place than Europe, Canada with regards to taxation and government regulations. The trend is disturbing all the same. Just venting, and this seemed to be the forum to do so.

    It Will Only Get Worse

    Just commiserating with the pipe community on the perpetual attacks and taxation we have to endure. Here in PA, for the privilege of patronizing a fine in state establishment for some of their tobacco blends, some quick math revealed that since I am in PA, taxes and “fees” (I despise euphemisms)...
