Translucent Meerschaum
I would love to know, as I’ve only ever seen a meerschaum pipe titled as translucent on Altinay’s website.- Kingsley

Where Are the Youngsters?
I too, am 22, and had no non-fictional piping influences in my life to give me the idea of piping in the first place. Yet, at 18, for seemingly no point other than a whim, I bought a used old Dr. Grabow Riviera with a cracked shank that I kept tight with a rubber band. It also came complete with...- Kingsley

What’s in your Spring/Summer Rotation.
I, like most it seems, don’t really keep any blends for any particular season, but, I’ve mostly been going at Rattray’s’s’s’s’s VA blends at the moment, sans Old Gowrie. I’ve dedicated my piping time to my fresh SMS meer for nearly a week, and once combined with Marlin Flake, it seemingly acts...- Kingsley

Show Off Your Meerschaum Pipes Here!
I was at Boswell’s today, and this small but tall SMS caught my eye. I’d been looking for a pipe just like this for a while, one I could experiment with, hold it by the bowl, see if I mind how it affects the coloration. I’m quite fond of it already, and the draw is surprisingly decent. Luckily...- Kingsley

Lightest Perique?
I had some Telegraph Hill by G.L. Pease today, and the Perique-ness seemed very minimal, a friend of mine who was also smoking with me didn’t know what we were smoking, so he tried to guess what it was composed of, and was very surprised when I told him that there was. It’s not my favorite, as...- Kingsley

Giving Away Cellar
I certainly hope that life will treat you better, and it’s frankly incredible what you intend to do, your post has inspired me, I hope to do the same if when smoking doesn’t seem very plausible anymore.- Kingsley

Why Is A Savinelli Punto Oro Gold Worth It?
I believe not all too long ago a post was made which asked why newer people don’t make posts as often, and I believe this may be a factor. I’m all for this kind of stuff, it’s a forum after all, and I’d never want to limit or discourage anyone from sharing their thoughts or feelings on any...- Kingsley

J.M. Boswell Private Stock
So, at the end of the day, in my opinion, it’s good. I sensed a topping, but, if there is one, its light, reminds me of a toned down version of MB’s London Burley Blend in essence. It has that familiar mix of chocolate-dominant, light-vanilla flavor, that smells a bit of chocolate milk mix, or...- Kingsley

J.M. Boswell Private Stock
Yupper, it’s an okay blend to me, nothing really jumps out to me. Though, I guess I should thank my lucky stars that they have a house blend I can actually enjoy, as almost every Aro blend and every single Lat blend makes me want to slam my head into a concrete wall. I’ve heard stories from...- Kingsley

What is the Worst Pipe Tobacco You have ever Smoked?
Sutliff’s 515-RC1. They must soak the stuff in a vat of vinegar and melted cotton candy. In smoking it was so corrosive that it was like smoking a war crime wrapped around the idea of a chemical burn.- Kingsley

IPSD 2021
I piped on a rather dry bowl of Capstan Blue in a Sav. Fantasia Rusticated 626 today, as I found a lost tin I’d bought last summer. It’s contents rubbed out, I couldn’t refuse, as I hadn’t had any in about half a year. It of course burnt a bit hot, but, with gentle puffing, it was very pleasant...- Kingsley

Why Is A Savinelli Punto Oro Gold Worth It?
Hello All, I’ve scoured the Internet for any information on how and why the Savinelli P.O.G’s (priced around $200 - $240 US Market) might be better pipes than one of Savinelli’s mid-range priced pipes (around $150), and I’ve come up with very little, with the few posts I’ve found saying they...- Kingsley
