    Flake Tabac Question

    Cube cutting a flake and folding and stuffing a flake get you to roughly the same place: smoking the tobacco in its compressed form. Rubbing a flake out effectively decompresses the flake into something akin to a ready rubbed (if you want some pieces still compressed) or a ribbon cut. F&Sing...

    Jim's Seattle Pipe Club Gentleman’s Rum Vanilla Review.

    I’m smoking my first bowl, and I’m generally impressed. I have no clue if it’s the Virginias or the burley, but there is a pleasant spiciness in the back of throat. The tobacco flavor is prominent, and the vanilla topping (while liberally applied) compliments the tobacco flavor and doesn’t...

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2024?***

    Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake in a Savinelli Canadian. I prefer Vanilla Cream Flake, so it’s been a few years since I’ve had this. I think both the topping and underlying tobacco of VCF are stronger and richer. VRC is a little more mild all around, and tasting great right now. It’s a nice...

    Any number of places in Dearborn, but closer to me I like Mezza in Southfield

    Beard Oil Recommendations?

    Maybe I’m just cheap or stupid, but I use my a little bit of what I put on the rest of my face after a shower: Lubriderm. No beardruff or itching

    What Foodstuffs Best Define the Place Where You Live?

    Good shawarma is a Detroit birthright. Some signs the restaurant you just walked into will have good shawarma: - The open kitchen has about 5 guys too many and they’re all yelling at each other in Arabic - A 100 y/o woman is making flatbread in a brick oven - There’s a constant whine...

    Looking For a New Pepper Grinder.

    I second Peugeot grinders. I’ve had mine for 15 years and it gets daily use. It still works perfectly.

    What’s for Lunch?

    I had some chicken tortilla soup I made a few weeks back. I have a giant stand up freezer in the basement, so I generally make big batches of soup and freeze a bunch. I made it with a base of chicken stock, and put several dried guajillo, ancho, and arbol chiles in to simmer. After about 10...

    Is This Tin 29 Years?

    If it were 1994, those wacky Europeans would put the day before the month. Unless there’s a 17th month I don’t know about.

    The Five Families

    I have a bunch of Savinellis, a Radice, and a Moretti. I will absolutely get a couple more Radices. The rinds in particular are a fantastic value. Ardor makes a spigot that has caught my eye, and I’m always looking at Cavicchis and Castellos.
