    What I Appreciate about Pipe Smoking.

    I agree! I like giving it a good clean after a smoke... letting the pipe know that I am taking care of it and appreciate it. I put a fresh charcoal filter in after each smoke so it's ready to go the next time it's called upon. The cleaning is part of the overall ritual I enjoy so much. I'm just...

    Ole Shenandoah Discontinued?

    has this line been discontinued? would be a shame. I really like the Appalachian harvest, and their other offerings sound enticing as well. I don't smoke very frequently, so when I do I want it to count! If it has been discontinued, and anyone has some extra tins that they would be willing to...

    Vacationing on the Left Coast. Sutliff black spice in my savinelli rustica with 6mm charcoal filter.., and an adult drink. I needed this!

    If You Smoke Aromatics Is It The Tobacco You're Enjoying ?

    I put my Sutliff creme brûlée in a Molto Dolce tin I had just finished. That is infusing some really nice flavor in it! Cheers

    If You Smoke Aromatics Is It The Tobacco You're Enjoying ?

    I totally agree. I am still relatively new to piping, and had no relationship with tobacco prior (started when I was 46). But to me, it all tastes like tobacco, even the heavy aromatics. Yes, some have a hint of sweetness compared to straight English, burley, etc. But my first experience...

    A Rumination on Super Sweet, Candy-flavored Aro Bombs

    I am an unapologetic aro lover! I enjoy English blends on occasion (Stokkebye English oriental is awesome!) , but primarily aros for me. Smoke them proudly! cheers Drew

    That's It I Quit!

    I haven’t even been smoking for 2 years, and fewer than 2 bowls per week at that, so I’m still a rookie. But I have never experienced gurgling. I will only smoke with pipes that fit a 9mm charcoal filter, and I’m sure that keeps things dry and cool (and hopefully some toxins from reaching my...

    Tell Us About Your Health And Pipe Smoking

    48 years old. First picked up a pipe 1.5 years ago. Have always been fit. No history at all with tobacco. I can’t imagine what type of convulsions my body would undergo if I Inhaled… so no, none of that. The pipe is inconsistent with my general constitution, but I enjoy the occasional (1-2 per...

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2021?***

    That’s a Molina bent Apple, 9mm charcoal filter. I don’t smoke often, so need to make them all count! This is going to be a great way to start the day!

    ***What Are You Smoking, January 2021?***

    This is about as blue collar as it gets. $25 pipe (brog) $4 tobacco, and it was totally enjoyable. One match was all it took for the entire bowl. I don’t smoke very frequently, but this was as good a setup as I have had. cheers

    ***What Are You Smoking, December 2020?***

    Boy, did this make for a pleasant morning with my coffee! Molina is probably my #1 pipe. Stays cool, good airflow, <$50. And that Sutliff 245 is great! cheers Drew
