    McClelland 40TH Anniversary Tobacco

    I was at the Chicago Show when it was asked if this was a one time run or ongoing, and the answer was the plan is ongoing and Mary used a term like “legacy blend” or something similar. I will have to check with the other gentleman I was with to get the proper phrasing. But it was clear her...

    Smokers Haven and the Future of Their Blends

    When I talked to them at the Chicago Pipe Show they were having issues getting inventory and thought he would have stock in July. A fellow pipe smoker talked to them again at the Columbus show and thought maybe sometime in September. I think there is more to the story and not getting straight...

    Lighter Suggestion?

    I use a Zippo with Pipe insert, thing just works especially with any type of wind. Indoors I use a Xikar Pipeline that works excellent indoors. No issues with either charring the bowl.

    Who Makes The White Spot Pipes?

    Although not specifically addressing the OP question, this is a brief outline on the USA standards. There are specific guidelines in the USA for classifications. Made in USA is a vague rule where federal regulations say roughly all or virtually all parts and costs for a final item for sale...

    Boswell Northwoods Price

    obviously subjective, but for me no. It's an ok blend but not at that price. There are others here I'm sure will say yes. But for bulk there are better options IMO.

    Wood at the Bottom of Missouri Meerschaum Bowls

    I still have my first pipe purchased, a MM Legend from over 2 years ago, smokes great. When I get a new cob, for the first handful of bowls, once I smell or taste wood, I set the pipe down and let it burn itself out. Once stem is charred and bottom is caked I don't notice anything funky in...

    Pocket Pipe

    I bought this for quick 5-10 min smoke.. The Savinelli Minuto, I also use for short drives and in the winter when I want a short quick smoke because it's cold out and outdoor smoker, (in garage). But if I don't want to turn the heater on, it's what I reach for. I think these were targeted for...

    Rossi 320

    I had the Rossi Palermo 320 like the one pictured above and it smoked just fine. Stem is slightly different than a Sav (even though Sav owns Rossi) was the only difference I noticed between that and my Trevi 320. For the price Rossi's are a good value IMO.

    Parker Experts Advice

    Thank you for the information! It smokes great and the price I got it for, even with replacement stem I think was a steal at 55 USD.

    Parker Experts Advice

    I am hoping some of the Parker experts can shed some light on a pipe I acquired at the Chicago Pipe Show silent auction. Acquired for a good price IMO and was lightly smoked. Maybe 2 partial bowls, there was still raw Briar visible in the bowl. All the stampings appear correct. The research...

    Which blends have a potential to turn "cigarettey" or "cigarish"?

    5 brothers to me no matter the cadence is cigarette taste/smell to me.

    What about the "Crumbles"

    If it's a tiny amount I do as Cosmic mentioned. If I have more leftovers but not enough for a bowl, ill combine it with another baccy for a layered bowl, or if it's something I cellar, just add it to the next bowl when I crack the next tin/jar.

    McClellands Syrian Has Run Out

    I received an email blast from PC around 3:30 EDT saying 3 oaks was in stock as well as FM ATP, curiosity got the best of me, I clicked the email link, showed in stock, put some in cart and went to check out and backordered. Considering their current "issues" I was surprised to first, get a...
