    Pipe Tobacco Recommendations for Camel Non-filter Smoker

    I second Embers with the Sutfliff TS-24 and would add TS-19 ( a bit sweeter but still all Oriental) mix a bit of 5 brothers in there for some more Umph. I smoke camel nonfilters most mornings but for some reason my go to Pipe Tobabcco is Peterson Flake (formerly Dunhill) straight medium...

    Royal Yacht Buzz

    Has anyone weighed in on C&D Dreams of Kaddath vs Royal Yacht , Flavor Profile and Nic Hit wise ? I know before Dunhill went to Peterson there was a scare and this was a suggested replacement I like them both but haven't tried them side by side.

    Spotted...In The Wild!

    Just moved a block and a half away from my old place and my new cross-the-street neighbor was clenching a bent billard of some sort and reading the paper. Good Omen.

    Impressions Of C&D Sunday Picnic?

    As far as I know, from May of last year BiJou's aged VA is still used but dwindling maybe another year left from this May I get three tins with every order just to be on the safe side , I see myself smoking that one to the Grave.

    It makes great kindling for folded ABF or any folded flake really.

    Five Brothers to Pep Things Up!!

    @pipestud Swears by 5 Bros and Royal Yacht, I forget the ratio. I have tried that and a mix with Capstan Blue and find them both enjoyable. Beware the Nic though especially with the Yacht.

    They say "It's just the tips" we have all said that and 9 months later you are out buying diapers... :)

    Request for an Oriental

    There is something special about this one a distinct Oriental like no other I only wish there was a version with absolutely no Latakia.

    Are These Two Different Tobaccos Really the Same?

    Coming off the same line and stuffed into the same tins, just two different stickers slapped on. Happens so much with so many others too.

    Vienna Pipe Tobacco Shops

    The great thing about just how small Western Europe is is that you are often 8 hours by Train away from the best of almost anything. Maybe a day trip to Frakfort is in order.

    Tobac Manil Bouchon de Semois

    They come with a moisture pack so it depends on how quickly you go through them. I did not care for the cigarillo version and gave them to a friend. The loose stuff for pipe is great I prefer the Extra Large cut.

    Tinbids Experiences?

    Yeah just putting in a good word I know there have been some naysayers and I wanted to come correct as I had suspicions of my own, feel like some kinks might have been worked out.

    Tinbids Experiences?

    Well, that was easy. I had been looking for some Ashton Pebblecut at a good price for quite some time and whenever I see it I bid on it but cut off around $100 the other day I saw it on TinBids for $60 so I bid and figured oh well and went about other business. Got an email a couple of days...

    Past, Present, or Future?

    Having recently hit 50 I figure I'm 2/3rds my way through if I'm lucky. I watch my 5-year-old play with mud and slugs in the yard Pig Tails and all, laughing and skipping through the tall grass. The sun beaming down, it's enough, and even better with a creaking rocking chair and a smoldering...

    Has Anyone Tried Sutliff's Macedonia Prelip Yet?

    Dont know if Sutliff would go for it with SP anyway, though they need each other and begrudgingly tolerate one another they are in direct competition.

    Has Anyone Tried Sutliff's Macedonia Prelip Yet?

    I think it might be neat because Jeremy at C&D seems to be okay in front of a camera ask him to make a video getting deeper into Oriental Varietals without getting into blends or telling any secrets just give us a basic guide as to what's what , might hit him up...
