    ***What Are You Smoking, Nov. 2024?***

    Getting chill (and dark) here, so Match Nightcap seems fitting. Now, if this Sutliff blend ceases to exist, I will be sad.

    Losing Flavor Halfway Through the Bowl

    What about relights, in the context of this topic? I know everyone's saying that one shouldn't be shy about relights, but I find myself relighting pretty often, since I'm trying to smoke slowly, which results in pipe going out. And every time I relight, I naturally puff longer and harder, which...

    The Benefits of Having Children

    Me? No, I wasn't. As a young man, I was totally fine without kids. However, if someone could explain to me what it really means to have kids and how it changes a man, I would probably want it. But I don't think it's possible to explain that to someone who hasn't experienced it.

    The Benefits of Having Children

    I think for me the biggest thing was learning responsibility. The fact that a little human depends on me, and I must not fuck it up was a revelation. Maybe, for some people having kids is not necessary to learn that, maybe they are a prominent figure in their community, church, or business; but...

    Losing My Taste For Tobacco

    My sense of taste is playing tricks with me, too. Yesterday, I was smoking an English blend, and it was giving me a very pronounced sour taste right from the get-go. I smoked at least 1/4 of a bowl that way and could taste sour on every puff. I then let the pipe go out and put it aside for a few...

    ***What Are You Smoking, Nov. 2024?***

    Continuing the strong tobacco journey today - this one is C&D Bayou Night. It's pretty spicy, someone said it's 50% Perique.

    C&D Dark Fired Kentucky in a Rossi. Compared to ODF, this feels much harsher. A very full smoking experience.

    Smoking C&D Crooner for the first time. Wow, I can see how this one may be a polarizing one. Not sure how I feel about it yet haha.

    Beard Smell

    I wouldn't argue that she doesn't! (even if I wanted to haha) I only smoke outside though, so hopefully drapes and carpet don't suffer that much.

    Beard Smell

    I do wash my face after I smoke, but that doesn't get rid of all the odor. Do you use some sort of beard shampoo or something?

    Beard Smell

    How do you gentlemen deal with beard smell, especially after smoking Latakia-heavy blends? My wife doesn't enjoy the aroma nearly as much as I do, unfortunately.
