    Matches vs. Lighters

    I prefer matches in every aspect except convenience of carry and wind resistance.

    What Turned You on to Pipes?

    I had a sudden thought one day. The thought was I wonder what it’s like to smoke a corn cob pipe. So I decided I better check that off the list. Plus I just kinda wondered why very few people smoke a tobacco pipe anymore so I just had to experience it for myself.

    What Kind of Pipe Smoker are You?

    Loss of Taste (Not COVID Related)

    But it’s not really like that. It’s like my tongue suddenly stopped being able to taste all the enjoyable nuances of the smoke very strongly and it’s not coming back.

    Wanted Custom Corn Cob Stem

    EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) I would like to find someone that can make for me a custom acrylic stem that will accept a 6mm charcoal filter and fit Missouri meerschaum filtered pipes.

    Every Aromatic I’ve tried closes up my sinuses. Not a fan at all. Some smell wonderful but They irritate my upper respiratory system something fierce.

    Loss of Taste (Not COVID Related)

    Well the struggle continues. At this point I feel like I’m complaining more than asking for advice. I laid off the pipe for a couple days after my original post and the flavor improved quite a bit. Not back to where it had been but much much better. So since it was enjoyable again I was...

    Tobacco Aging Question

    The irritation is like the roof of my mouth kinda “swells” and and gets like after I bite into a slice of pizza that’s too hot and my tongue just goes numb but slightly stinging. Just hard to describe. I don’t think it’s tongue bite because it subsides very quickly after I stop smoking...

    Tobacco Aging Question

    I have my favorite, Carolina Red Flake and I get along with it great. So maybe that’s what’s fooling me.

    Tobacco Aging Question

    So I’ve been sampling different Virginia’s and Virginia blends to see what I’m going to like the best. In doing so I’ve tried some that are very irritating to my mouth regardless of how slow, wet, or dry I smoke them. What’s the likelihood that a few years aging will reduce or even possibly...

    Substitute for Carolina Red Flake

    I’m probably done with this community! Impressing anyone here never even occurred to me and I’m not going to even consider it. I appreciate the people that helped and gets it.
