    Dorisco Mixture Review by Romeowood

    Thanks Les--fortunately I know our tastes run in a very similar vein. More reviews, you say? I recently knocked one out for fun in a Lovecraftian style for Baron's Miskatonic University experiment. There are also a few more here at the site. And don't forget LuxuryTobaccoReviews.com, where I...

    Confessions of a Germaphobe

    I follow a similar regime, team, and prefer always-fresh, like-new pipes to overly-anointed ones, let's say. The bristles in cleaners aren't rough enough to scar the inside of your stems or shanks, although exercise caution about the occasional bent end of a cleaner, the little metal wire can...

    The Theory Behind Aging Tobaccco

    Well, no...yes, and no. But mostly no. There are some fascinating experiments going on right now with quantum computing and even quantum refrigerators, as well as possible extra-dimensional alteration of the time-space continuum. But we haven't been able to truly alter time yet, and that's most...

    What is the Prized Possession in Your Cellar?

    Late 50s / early 60s Escudo. And yeah, it's worth the wait. Tons of old GLP Virginia blends too, which are great at any age.

    Former Prime Ministers Pipe Sold

    I hope the buyer was Bob Hoskins. I can see him smoking it and in his best gangster voice saying, "This righ 'ere, it's the Proyme Ministahs pipe, it is. AN 'AT MEANS OY'M THA PROYME MINISTAH NOW!" And then shooting somebody. With his crazy eyes. But I digress. Cool!

    Tin Dating

    When I want to date a tin I usually bring flowers. And shave.

    The Theory Behind Aging Tobaccco

    The easy and obvious answer to the whole debate, of course, is to buy enough that you won't be disturbing the entire stock of Tobacco X when you want to sample some at periodic intervals.

    Dorisco Mixture Review by Romeowood

    Unfortunately, not a whole lot. At times I had to double-check which tin I was sampling. Disappointing from the collector standpoint, certainly, but still I can't call it a bad smoke. It won't become part of my regular rotation, but I may buy one now and again if the mood strikes and there's one...

    Monday Night Fights IV: Old School vs New School

    I do hit the Carter Hall with my uncle, but agree on it not being the best aftertaste. Before-dinner smoke, not after. And I haven't had the Angler's since the beta testing either; I'll have to revisit. Recusing myself for this round, unfortunately.

    Most Controversial Tobacco Blends

    Fascinating approach to a juicy question, hfearly. Evident already from the comments, though, is the ever-elusive (illusive?) nature of the beast: one man's aromatic is another man's english. Trying to categorize some of these blends down is an effort in futility, and therein lies one of the...

    What Are You Smoking? *March 2013*

    Peterson Holiday 2010 in a Sasieni. Man I love the time-capsule quality of a jar from the cellar.

    Anybody Else Been Enjoying Miskatonic?

    Hehe, thanks mrlower. I can only apologise that it sat in my backlogged files for so long, a disservice to Baron's efforts. Totally worthy of the Lovecraftian legacy.

    Anybody Else Been Enjoying Miskatonic?

    Some unfortunate souls have...and by the smile on the face of the corpse, he did not regret it one bit.... Miskatonic University Review or The Whispering Package I. Nigh some weeks had passed since the package had arrived at my less-than-credible domicile. It had arrived in the depth of the...
