    You Have No Cellar, Nor Do I

    I rent the studio adjacent to me and only have tobacco and associated hardware in it….. do I have a cellar?

    G.L. Pease - The Virginia Cream

    Not sure how to quote posts deathmetal- so sorry for not quoting you. But it was simply my opinion- after doing the DGT it tasted like straight ash to me… but i've found my palate keeps changing over and over.- just two weeks ago i was all over From morons cellar and now I'm all over nightcap...

    Lighters

    Im using an IM corona Pipemaster and I feel its a pretty good lighter. it also has built in tamper which is nice while on the go… can't give you a long term review as I've only had it for around 2 months.

    G.L. Pease - The Virginia Cream

    Notice: Im a very new pipe smoker (4 months) and this is my first pipe tobacco review- frankly maybe too early to start accurately reviewing blends, but hey, can't hurt to have a "beginner" perspective on this blend. I look forward to hearing others opinions. As I've just stated, I'm new to pipe...

    Retrohale problems

    I have the same problem as you- while I agree it helps bring out the flavor of specific blends, I pretty much never do it… I'm content with the extent of the flavor without my nose burning for over an hour.

    Possible cake issues

    Hello, Ive smoked give or take a dozen bowls out of my new Radice and while the bowl has gotten somewhat blackened especially in certain areas, it seems like naked briar. I just started smoking my new Mimmo Provenzano and don't want to do damage to anymore pipes if I'm doing something...

    Magic eraser issues

    Just used a magic eraser to get a ton of build up off the rim of an estate pipe my GF bought me (I watched a youtube video where someone recommended it- worked well for him)… while all the carbon buildup did come off with time, so did some of the stain- which is now a lighter brown than the rest...

    Are these any good?

    FINALLY!!! See what I mean- These pipes are filthy! How do i go about sterilizing the pipe, cleaning the oxidation off the stems, dealing with the slight burnout if such a thing is even possible and cleaning out the bowls?
