    Seconds. What exactly are they?

    True and what makes a second a second is determined by the pipe maker. French pipes tend to have lots of fills...at least older ones. If a Ser jac has a fill its a second. Of course most French makers dont charge what SJ asks. A lot of it is left to brand expectation.

    Its digital so yes but I think monochrome works better. I will take a look at it sometime closer

    Ian Fisher, Brooklyn Pipe Maker

    Very nice pipe and his prices are super fair. There are some listed on the country squire. Actually incredibly low...I doubt they will be for long.

    What Sutliff Products to Purchase?

    I cant get Stutlif so its a moot point. Im not buying a lot of MacB. I will slowly add a few tins of HH Latakia Flake but nothing rash. I enjoy it but I can live without it and no one knows if its leaving the lineup. Im ordering a roll cake or two just becuase I havent tried them...

    New-ish Pipe-Maker Wolff

    Yours looks good. A few on his site (maybe older ones) dont have the best looking buttons but I imagine its only cosmetic. As he gets a larger gallery it would probably be wise to do some editing. Those things scare folks off.

    Seconds. What exactly are they?

    If a Ser Jacopo has a fill it becomes a La Fuma. Some are subtle some are pretty glaring. Ive a few and the smoke as well as the others. Ive no big issue with seconds if they are not done badly. Sure, I prefer no fills but if the fill is small and I can get a 400 dollar pipe for less than...

    Intolerance to Most Tobaccos

    You might try an activated charcoal filter. The remove a quite a bit. It might remove whatever is causing you problems. If it doesnt you can always pit in an adapter and smoke it like a normal pipe. So worst cace scenario is that you end up with an extra pipe…that cant be a bad thing

    Thanks. To be fair they are older pictures but they still look the same. Im careful and I also own a buffer. I like pretty pipes. The upkeep is something I enjoy so that helps too.

    Planning return to piping with a change in direction.

    I agree with the added suggestion of a vaper. While you are ordering Peterson grab a tin of Deluxe Navy Rolls. Great stuff. It should fill the bill for your desire for natural sweetness.

    Is There A Real Difference.

    While I cant objectively agree with @MisterBadger I do understand that ones subjective experience of imagining or postulating an objects history can play into enjoying a pipe. If it were not the case a lot of the notions surrounding antiques would evaporate and the market might just die...

    HU Tobacco Coming to the States

    @PipeIT Most of the HU blends really benefit from the old 3-5 day rule. They never taste right straight from the tin. When I run low on one of the blends I open a new one and put it under my current open stash in a jar. It doesnt taste bad but its just not right for a few days. It may not be...

    Climate Change and Its Impact on Tobacco Quality

    Well...sometimes I ignore the room lol I do think its important or at least reasonable to consider that in our search for great blends there are more variables than just a few guys sitting in a room forming a conspiracy to just screw over "Those damn Pipe Smokers". I grew up on a farm and in...
