    Amphora English Blend

    Update: I have smoked this around a human in an enclosed space (my own living room) and asked them about the room note. They found it tolerable, and I know she (my mother) doesn't care much for latakia. It should be noted that my mother is a never smoker, and if I were to go to her house I...

    Amphora Virginia Blend

    Don't get me wrong. It is a very fine tobacco and the price can't be beat (almost 8 USD for 50g is down right cheap for a good pipe tobacco). Maybe plain is the wrong word. I can't think of a good one really to describe how I feel about this tobacco. I get a cool smoking, nutty-sweetness...

    Amphora Virginia Blend

    Well I'm back at it again. Having reviewed Amphora English Blend, which after some drying has become a pretty common smoke for me, I'm going back to the Amphora well. Like the English Blend I picked it up on an impulse at my local B&M though I can get a better price online. Cut is supposedly...

    Coming Out of the Piper Closet!

    I don't understand the need here to "come out of the closet" on the matter of pipe smoking in particular or smoking in general. It seems to me to be a personal matter. That said, I live in the US and in the US South where smoking in particular isn't considered to be quite taboo. In the state...

    Hello from Windsor Ontario

    Welcome from Central Florida. If you find something that is quite close Frog Morton let me know about it. I miss that blend something fierce.

    Smoking Health Concerns and Children

    Welcome to the forum Nathan. 1. No they are not. Provided that you are not smoking inside the house itself second-hand smoke is eliminated as a possible harm to the children. So-called third hand smoke is nonsense. Were there any truth to it people would asphyxiate the second they walked...

    Video Reviews with a Story to Boot. This Week: Orlik Dark Strong Kentucky.

    A well done review and story. I'm glad the charge was dismissed. I'm watching the back log of videos now. Definitely subscribing.

    I was smoking a pipe back then. Cigars never appealed to me the way pipes did. I'm not sure why. My mother is a never smoker, my father smoked cigarettes (he quit 8 years ago), and all my grandparents smoked cigarettes also. Many people here can recount grandparents or parents who smoked...

    A lot of places these days seem to be that way these days. Pipe smoking isn't exactly fashionable. It wasn't really fashionable when I started smoking a pipe at 16 back in 1995 either. We're a niche market really and the overhead B&Ms have they make far more money with the fashionable...

    Ones that specialize in pipes only? Probably not. Nearly everyone also carries cigars, and it seems most smoke shops where I am generally cater to the RYO crowd (as they use "pipe" tobacco to roll cigarettes with, it is labeled pipe tobacco for tax purposes probably--though you can smoke it in...

    New Method of Smoking

    I would argue that not having the latest technology, and finest tools would make the work even more impressive. I don't know if you've seen the youtube videos but channel called Primitive Technology was a guy making videos of himself building huts and such with stone age tools, tools which many...

    New Method of Smoking

    This pretty much. Though I'm giving OP the benefit of the doubt, most of the Russians I've met where I am (Immigrants) are cigarette smokers or non-smokers.

    Amphora English Blend

    Never thought of using the pouch as a wallet. I have used pouches as pouches before though. Had a pouch of PA that I kept refilling from a tub.

    The Pipe Smoker's Paraphernalia

    As a bald man, I have to wear a hat in the scorching Florida sun. Most times I favor a Panama hat (climate dictates what I can wear) and nothing annoys me more when some whippersnapper* insists it is a fedora. A Panama hat looks nothing like a fedora. In winter it is worse when they say my...
