    Your Morning Martini and Smoke

    If I had a drink at 7 am, I’d be back asleep by 8 am.

    Is It Hotter Where You Live Now?

    This thread is proof that smoking a pipe does not make you more thoughtful or intelligent.

    The Most Disappointing Tobacco

    Escudo, but it seems that’s probably the most common one here. OGS. Wasn’t good or bad. Just meh to me. Jackknife plug - this was hyped a lot more on this forum about ten years ago, doesn’t get much traction these days. Haunted Bookshop and OJK - strongly dislike both of these. Do not get...

    Snüs or pipe healthier?

    I’m of the opinion that snus is likely healthier, though the ease of use probably contributes to higher blood pressure which can be problematic. You get a lot more nic from an all day snus habit, but from what I’ve read the pasteurization neutralizes some of the nastier compounds in tobacco. I...

    Lakeland aromatic

    To tack on to this - are there any easy to find, readily available Lakeland blends? Been smoking 14 years but never got around to trying them

    Anyone use Nasal Snuff?

    I’ve been meaning to give On a go. Tried rogue and didn’t care for it. If Ettan Original was cheaper (the shipping is a killer) it’s all I’d use, but I guess keeping my inner nic fiend at bay with 3 mg pouches is probably better.

    Anyone use Nasal Snuff?

    Yeah I switched to zyn and snus because it was just too much. Far better experience with the pouches, even if they’re not nearly as cost effective.

    Anyone use Nasal Snuff?

    I’ve snuffed quite a bit, and I’m always surprised to hear people snuffing in public, at work, etc. I get a crazy drippy nose with a fair bit of snot. Is that not happening for you all? I wouldn’t want to handle that in public.

    The American Tourist - Clumsy Travel Mistakes

    The cheek kissing in France seems like it’d be easy to overlook an American messing up, but I got some pretty offended looks if I forgot to do it or didn’t know if it was a double or single kiss affair. I was there three months and never got the hang of it.

    Dry Creek Wrangler: YouTuber, Podcaster, Pipe-Smoker.

    I’m allergic to that type of messaging, and I like quite a lot of this guy. I grew up in cattle ranch country, and he reminds me a lot of the good old guys out there.

    Are You Country or City?

    Country for sure. If I’m going to be in a city, I’d rather be a massive, world class city like NYC, London, Paris, etc. I can stand these small-medium cities that other country folk seem to prefer if they have to deal with a city. Go all in or stay out in the sticks, imo.

    Don’t Care For Latakia, But I Did Like FM OTT - What To Try?

    Added some to my next order - sounds like it’ll scratch that lat itch when it arises. Thanks!

    Don’t Care For Latakia, But I Did Like FM OTT - What To Try?

    I don’t often have a hankering for Latakia, but when I do, I find myself wishing I could still easily get a tin of FM on the town. I know there’s no match out there, but if that’s about the only English I’ve liked, what else should I try? I might think Presbyterian, but I actually find it...

    Any Advice on Quitting Cigarettes?

    I can’t recommend the snus (or even zyn) recommendations enough. Nothing else could get me off the nails or vape. Snus Central is a good place to try a lot of different kinds. Shipping is high so you have to order a lot to make it worth it, but they have fast shipping. There’s no spitting with...

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2023?***

    These look fun. Have you tried lighting this way much? Seems like it could add a bit of variety when I’m already near the wood stove.

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2023?***

    I tend to only enjoy sandblast for rustication, but I love that pipe. What a beaut.

    All Day Blends

    A little surprised LBF hasn’t popped up. Decent price, lowish nic, not much bite unless puffed like an absolute freight train, tasty enough if you pay attention but can easily be ignored, etc. I prefer more of a nic hit, but LBF has all the hallmarks of an all day smoke. I mix a little Five...

    Bad Taste In The Morning

    I’ve not found a way to combat this. It’s just a part of smoking a pipe, in my opinion.

    Question to Our Mustachioed Members

    I have what I think is a normal, straightforward ‘stache - like a classic cop or Ron Swanson. I don’t put anything in it, because the smell bothers me (and it interferes with the nice tobacco mustache note). Just wash it with face wash. Wouldn’t be opposed to an oil or something to hold it in...

    Pipe Smoking Social Meaning…If There Is One

    I need to look into smoking at a golf/country club. No cigar lounges nearby, but there is a country club and I’ve never thought to see if they have a smoking lounge. Thanks for the idea!
