    Only One Blend

    I like variety, but if I was forced to only smoke one blend, a few blends that would make the cut would be: McClelland - Blue Mountain/ Balkan Blue McClelland - Frog Morton Cellar Dunhill - Early Morning Pipe Samuel Gawith - Skiff Mixture Seattle Pipe Club - Mississippi River

    Progress of My Lattice Meerschaum

    Looks like it's coming along nicely. Keep it up! I have a few meerschaum pipes that I wax from time to time, every couple of years, and others that I've never waxed. You can see a difference initially, but over time the pipe reverts back to its natural color as it sits. Is it necessary to...

    Fun Things To Do With Empty Tobacco Tins

    Before I remodeled the shop/smoking lounge, I used to display a bunch of my old tins on the wall. When the changeover happened, I tossed pretty much all of those tins as I didn't have a place for them with the new setup. As I open new tins I'll start a collection again, and potentially find a...

    Cigars And Pipes...The Journey

    I started off as a cigar smoker in 2010, and gradually got into pipes in 2011. After about 3 years of smoking a pipe; in 2014, I really took a deep dive into pipes, and for a few years became primarily a pipe smoker. Since about 2018, I've been probably 50/50 with my pipes and cigars. I tend...

    Pipe Smoking and Cancer

    Studies like this are fine, but it's merely only a snapshot of a small group and only creates a general idea, as it's not 100% concrete. There are too many variables for any study to be 100% factual. Can you find some good take away's from these types of studies, yes; but again, each person is...

    With Whom Would You Smoke?

    If I could go back in time to smoke a pipe with someone it would be my 4x Great Uncle Sir Thomas Henry Hall Caine. He was a well-known author who wrote such books as: "The Manxman," "The Prodigal Son," and plays such as: "The Christian." He was the most well-known author of the Victorian /...

    Scandinavian Tobacco Group A/S to acquire Mac Baren Tobacco Company A/S

    I'm not a huge Mac Baren fan, but I do enjoy several of their blends. My favorite being HH Latakia Flake. Though this acquisition of STG buying Mac Baren won't affect me personally, it's still unfortunate as at some point it seems like STG will own everything. I have no issues with STG as I...

    How Much is Too Much?

    "Excessive" is a relative number since bowl sizes vary. If one is smoking out of a small bowl then 10 isn't necessarily a large number as compared to smoking out of an oversized bowl. Also depends on the period of time you're smoking. Some people only smoke for a few hours while others will...

    Heat and Humidity Affecting Outdoor Smoking?

    Here in the Pacific Northwest, we get a fair amount of humidity, but I've never really noticed it affecting my pipe tobacco unlike my cigars. On the real hot and humid days, if I'm having a cigar I can run into re-light issues, or burn issues etc. When it's really hot and humid I don't normally...
