Did You Lose Your Taste for Aromatics Over Time?
I was quite curious about aromatics at the time I began smoking pipe seriously, as they are what I associated pipe tobacco with in my late childhood. So I tried a few (five, to be precise), but they all turned out not to be something I prefer - they were light and lacked flavour, being somewhat...- demian_dec

Rooting to the Past
Just received a new pipe made by the same man who made the one I received as a gift years ago, and which I, to my greatest regret, forgot at home. A somewhat longer, straight, slightly sandblasted Dublin with a rounded rim and a notably slimmer shank with a nice band to protect the wood. Acrylic...- demian_dec

Vauen Pipe date
Good day, as far as I know, the numbers stamped on Vauen pipes - in this case, 8234 - refer directly to the pipe itself. Meaning, it's just the numbered configuration (model) of the pipe, that is not unique to this specific product, rather stamped on each of the identical produced pipes, one of...- demian_dec

Nicotine or Relaxation?
I agree with many previous comments. Although I smoked cigarettes for almost a year in the past, I do not feel the nicotine craving, and, as a result, am not looking for it in pipe smoking. Nevertheless, it would be a gross understatement to exclude it. In my free time, I like fiddling with...- demian_dec

Nuking a Cold
Good evening fellow pipe smokers! As I mentioned in my previous thread about flake tobacco clogging problem, I got quite sick - that being, an annoying cold. I'm armed with all kinds of pills, powders and sprays against it, and downing boiling hot ginger-lemon tea with honey. Couldn't help but...- demian_dec

An Annoying Occurance: Flake Tobacco Clogging a Fully Bent Pipe
Thanks for the tips! I woke up with a terribly sore throat today, and still decided to pick my pipe up, after getting a steaming cup of tea ready. I stuffed a more square than rectangular piece of that pure Virginia flake with its fold facing the bottom, this time a just smudge deeper than the...- demian_dec

An Annoying Occurance: Flake Tobacco Clogging a Fully Bent Pipe
Good evening fellow pipe smokers! I find myself needing a tip regarding flakes & shapes. I own a pretty, fully bent Savinelli Regimental 614, which I smoke most of the time. It just so happens that since my discovery of flake tobacco I've been smoking it (folded & stuffed) almost...- demian_dec

Coming Back to an Old Hobby: My Story
Luckily I do! My father did a couple, as he is preparing to send me a package containing some goods from him - and the pipe. I can't wait to get my hands on it again :)- demian_dec

Coming Back to an Old Hobby: My Story
Thanks! It's not every day I get a compliment like that - also not every day I get to write that much :) I had a wonderful English teacher from fourth to eighths grade - she plaited love for the language deep into me, and from there it was just consuming overwhelmingly English content.- demian_dec

Coming Back to an Old Hobby: My Story
Good day fellow pipe smokers, my name is Demian. Greetings from Germany! My story of pipe smoking is a lovely one - with a few darker spots. On my fifteenth birthday, my best friend - our fathers are also best friends since school, so we got to continue the lore - gifted me his father's old...- demian_dec
