    Davis and Son tobacconist in Wilmington NC?

    I was wondering if anyone in the Wilmington area knew anything about this b&m? I'm currently on vacation at Holden Beach, will be heading to Wilmington tomorrow and was looking for some input on this company. From what I am seeing, they are the only shop dedicated to pipes. I saw a couple...

    Flake Tobaccos

    I've never smoked a flake tobacco before, but have been thinking more and more about getting some soon. So I was wondering what the top recomended flakes were. I understand that it's all opinion, but I figure if there are a few that seem to make everyones list(or at least the...

    Storing VS. Aging

    I was wondering where the line between aging a tobacco and simply storing it would be. Or more simply, how long would a tobacco have to be 'sealed off from the outside world' in order to be considered aging. I understand that it will most likely vary somewhat from type to type. But would I...

    What Is Your Contemplative Blend?

    As I sit here getting ready to smoke my pipe in hopes it will help me make a decision about a proposition I recieved at work today that could have a big affect on my future(or it could have absolutly no affect on my future at all), it got me wondering. What, if any, particular blend everyone...

    I Just Might Have Converted Someone

    The other day I was talking with my best friend about a new pipe I bought and while describing it, the conversation turned to the next time we get together, maybe I'd bring a pipe by and let him smoke one too. Not really wanting to have someone else smoke one of my pipes, and knowing the next...

    What's the Word About Aldo Velani Pipes?

    I came across the Aldo Velani brand on pipesandcigars.com and liked the looks of a couple pipes they offered, but I don't know anything about them and pipedia doesn't say anything about them. So I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience with this brand. Here are the couple I was looking...

    Anyone in the Columbus, Oh area.

    I will be heading up that way this week and there will be a B&M close to where I'll be called Barclay's. I was curious if anyone here has had any experience with this company. It will be the store on Federated Blvd. This will be the first B&M I've ever visited, I'm hoping they're a pretty...

    Breaking in a New Savinelli

    I just ordered my first Savinelli last night. It's a bent rusticated Trevi. While checking out the pictures I noticed it did not have a carbonized bowl. As this is going to be my first pipe like that, is there is anything I should do different to break it in from what I'm used to? I ordered...

    What's the story with F. E. S. S. pipes?

    I keep seeing this brand all the time when im surfing on Amazon, but with any kind of research i can't find anything on them. Granted its just been some casual research. Does anybody here have any experience with this company or know anything about them?

    Labeling the Mason Jars

    So I'm about to cellar most of my tobacco by using mason jars, but I was wondering, how does everyone here label their jars? Is it better to use labels then write on them the type of tobacco, or is there a marker of some sorts out there that will clearly write on the jar itself and can be...

    Happy Birthday To Me!!

    As I am about to turn the big 3 0 on saturday, I decided to buy myself an early b-day present. From pipesandcigars.com I bought myself the 'Froggy Went a Courting' tin sample pack which has all 4 tobaccos in the Frog Morton series, a special blend of tobacco that McClellend made for the site...

    I'm Smoking Glue In My Pipe.

    As I was somking my MM Country Gent the other night for only the second time since getting it, I started noticing this really nasty taste that I knew wasn't the tobacco. And I remember tasting that just a bit the first time I smoked that pipe. I really didn't like it. So as I was doing my...

    Pipe Smoking in Video Games

    So yesterday I picked up Halo;Combat Evolved Anniversary. As I never had an original Xbox, I never played the first Halo game so I was stocked about this one. I start playing the game, get through the main 'tutorial' level and make my ways to Keyes(the captain of the ship), and when I get...

    Flavor strength in aromatics

    I have a few differnt aromatics, and I don't know if they are a very weak flavor, or my taster just sucks. Or maybe even they're 'neutral' enough flavors that I just don't notice anything. I have a vanilla, and 5 different types of 'java' blends. The only one I can almost taste the flavor is...

    Another question about cake.

    Should I go with white or spice cake? :rofl: Sorry, bad joke. But seriously, one question that has been bothering me on building a cake is if I should be running a pipe cleaner along the inside of the bowl everytime I'm done smoking. It almost seems counter-productive to me to do so as I...

    To All eBay Pipe Buyers Out There

    I've been noticing some people get some pretty nice pipe deals coming from ebay, so I went looking around there and yeah, I've seen some pretty nice deals. But my question is about the descriptions. A lot of the descriptions say 'wooden pipe' so am I to believe these are actually wood and not...

    How do you take care of pipe cleaner debris?

    I've been noticing the last few smokes that after I clean my pipe with a pipe cleaner, I have 'fuz' from the pipe cleaner in my bowl. And I assume there is some in the stem as well. I don't know if I'm using a cheap cleaner, or if it just happens. And if every cleaner does that, then that...

    Carpal Tunnel Sucks!!!!

    So I was sitting on the back porch today enjoying a mid day smoke when my carpal tunnel started acting up. And it was bad, I couldn't hold the pipe for more than what seemed to be 30 seconds in each hand before they went numb. But according to the doctors I'm not bad enough off to warrent...

    OK, I Need Help Deciding on a Pipe...

    I'm going to be making a pipe rack purchase very shortly, and I've decided I want to get a new(cheap) pipe with it, but I can't make up my mind. They're all MM's, one is the Diplomat straight, about 9 bucks. But then I saw the Ozark pipes, about 4.5 each(bent cherry, and straight maple), so I...
