Being a noob here I realize that most of the folks on this forum have no Idea who I am or the things I enjoy.
But, sittin here in my mancave, enjoying different tobacco's from my ever growing cellar, I have realized that I probably enjoy smoking them in the resurrected briars almost as much as I do the tobacco.
Don't get me wrong, there's nothing like finding a blend that really sings to ya. But I also derive great satisfaction from smoking them in what was once a beat up, neglected or totally grunged out old smoker.
It's probably a toss up for me, whether or not I enjoy refurbin these old smokers or enjoyin em with with a great blend and sippin a nice Scotch, Bourbon or Cognac.
I realize that there's more that I don't know, about restoring pipes & the myriad of blends available, but I sure am enjoyin the journey.
Thanks for answering my many, many questions and for offering your sage advice.
Take care
