    First-Year Pipe Smokers' Favorite Tobacco So Far

    I ready don't know yet. I've been all over the place in the last few months. I mostly reach for a English blend. I liked Arango's Balkan Supreme enough that I got a pound of it this week. Been trying some Virginia here lately. At first I didn't care for them, especially straight Virginia. John...

    ***What Are You Smoking? January 2020.***

    First impressions of Spark Plug. I don't have a very good palate to be able to say much about it. I usually have to read other reviews to notice what I'm tasting. I just know if I like it or not.

    Bad First Experience

    I picked up a Padron. I'm going to give it another try in a couple days.

    Bad First Experience

    I gotcha. I stuck my pipe tool poker through the end and massaged it. Still didn't help. I'm going to see if my local shop has Padron's.

    Bad First Experience

    I wanted to try a cigar for the first time today and it didn't go very well. Yesterday I bought a Gurkha Havana Legend. Today I decided to light it up. I got it to burn good but I couldn't get any smoke from it. The draw was to tight. I got the guy in the shop to cut it for me so I don't think...
