The Synergy of 7 Reserve
It's midnight at Taiwan. And I'm drinking and puffing with my friends now. I want to talk about the taste of 7 reserve. The taste is mild and smooth but too light compared to any other English blend. However, its synergy with peated whisky is just too amazing. When you smoke 7 reserve first and...- hyperstar

Another reason is that if you draw the flame too deep when you lit the pipe can cause tongue brun...- hyperstar

Re-lighting Advice

Broken Tenons. Repair or Replace Stem?
I sticked my broken tenon with 24 hours epoxy AB glue. And placed it in a cup, preventing any movement. So that the glue didn't drip. Then I put the cup near my dehumidifier. I wasn't sure if it helps the glue harden better, but the outcome is good. (Remember wearing disposable gloves...- hyperstar
