    Blenders That Use PG And To What Degree

    Well, this is dated and incomplete, but at least I didn't make a wild-assed guess like some people here. Percentage (by weight) of polypropylene glycol: 7 Seas Gold - 2.0% Amphora Full Aroma - 2.9% Ashton Artisan's Blend - 2.6% Borkum Riff Original - 1% Capstan Original Navy Cut - 2.6% Captain...

    Cellaring Question

    I found a pouch of Altadis Tobacco Galleria Classic Vanilla in the back of my laundry room last week. It had been there about 5 years since I opened it. Still not dried out. So I guess it depends on the type of tobacco.

    Unpopular Opinion - I Dont Like 1-Q

    First Attempt At Carving A Pipe From Scratch

    So, this is a first attempt at carving a pipe from scratch. I'll post more photos as the project progresses Started off with an 8" section of poplar 2 by 2. Design (billiard) sketched out with a Sharpie. Draught hole drilled first, using a 1/4" bit, eyeballing the angle and using a hand drill...

    Lots of Blues fans here in Saskatchewan. Tyler Bozak, Brayden Schenn and Jaden Schwartz all hail from Saskatchewan, so there are a lot of proud family members here right now.

    Father The Flame documentary

    KC, that always bugged me, too. "Father the Flame"? Sure, we use flames to light pipes, but I don't see that as "fathering" anything. Maybe ancient lighthouse keepers were fathering flames. I put my flame out as soon as the tobacco is smouldering.

    Pronunciation of Pipe-things

    Correction: "Choquin" is more like halfway between "show kay" and "show ken" but with a silent "n", with equal emphasis of the two syllables.

    Pronunciation of Pipe-things

    Dictionary.com, Merriam Webster online and Collins online all agree that latakia is pronounced with an emphasis on the "KEE" syllable. I think in Arabic this emphasis is less pronounced, but I haven't seen anywhere that emphasizes the "TACK" syllable. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/latakia...

    Peterson Pipes - How Satisfied Are You with Them?

    I have two - a Christmas 2014 and a Christmas 2015 (my wife was on a kick till I told her to stop). Both needed extra time to break in. The 2014 was dip stained and tasted horrible. Both looked really nice, until I listened to someone on the forums and tried hot water rinsing the 2015. It took...

    Breathe smoking Q&A

    I would think forcing smoke back through your pipe would be a very bad idea, given how much moisture is in your mouth/breath.

    What Does Exactly "Taste of the Tobacco" Mean???

    ^^ this ^^ Anyone who doubts this, hold your nose while smoking (or smoke during a bad head cold) and tell me the flavor isn't seriously diminished. Easy experiment.
