Will Italian Makers Ever Switch Back to Ebonite/Vulcanite Stems?
I’m not saying Peterson makes what I prefer. I just said Peterson because most Pipe Smokers have a Peterson and Savinelli. And for me, Peterson is certainly a big improvement over, lets say Savinelli. I’m not saying one is better than the other, it’s just what I like. If you really want to...- Piping Abe

Will Italian Makers Ever Switch Back to Ebonite/Vulcanite Stems?

Opening A Tin? Show Us!
The old stuff, that you have there, was so wonderful. The new version is a bland, standard ribbon cut tobacco with nothing special. I believe the old stuff was actually tinned Rum Flake- Piping Abe

Dedicated Pipes
When I find a favorite blend, I dedicate a pipe to that blend. The pipe will then take the nuances of that blend to the next level. Sometimes multiple pipes to one blend if I like it that much. But in the meantime, some blends get smoked in all my pipes minus those already dedicated. Dedicating...- Piping Abe

Who Chews?
I enjoying Chewing Long Leaf Chews. Redman, Levi Garrett, Beechnut, all of em. Not so much Dipping. I feel as though Chew is for relaxing and something to do while taking it easy. Dipping is more for a nicotine fix. If you didn’t know, smokeless tobacco is a safer alternative to cigarettes...- Piping Abe
