    True Perique

    i found C&D granulated perique to be less than satisfactory. it was unbelieveably wet - wetter than anything ive ever gotten, from samuel gawith or any other brand. I ended up having to dry it under a lizard lamp. it also wasnt as strong as i was hoping, the nicotine was about on-par with Royal...

    Christmas Cheer, smoke or not to smoke?

    I did both. Opened up the tin, stuffed most of it in a 8 Oz jar. and smoking the rest. 2016 is quite good. havnt tried 17 yet

    Customer Appreciation 2016 Sampler

    I can never get enough basket pipes. I was also interested in the lighter because it will match my other Dupont knockoff, which is a montechristo "Romeo y Julietta", probably made by the same company as the CAO lighter I'll be happy no matter whats in the goodie box, but i wont lie, i was hoping...

    Do you remove the varnish from your MM cobs?

    yup, just for aesthetics though. I remove the varnish, (usually)dye and (always)wax, polish the black off of the ferrule, and make a vulcanite stem.

    Collectors Bane

    i take the stickers off of all my tins and glue them to my tobacco cabinet. same with cigar bands. I do still have all of the empty tins, but i havent been smoking a pipe long enough for them to become a burden

    No more Forever Stems?

    Vermont Freehand has a huge selection of stems, both vulcanite and acrylic. most are only 2.75 a piece and they're pretty easy to fit yourself. you'll need a buffer if you want a nice smooth finish, but its not necessary in most cases

    Cherrywood Pipes Anyone? The Wood, Not the Shape...

    i have 2 cherrywood pipes, one of which i made myself. i like em both quite a bit. seems to smoke just the same as briar, and a bowl coating with honey/activated carbon keeps the wood taste out of the first few bowls. only difference i cam tell is the grain isnt as pretty as briar
