    Cosmic's Secrets To Marriage

    I know my myself, and have yet to seriously consider marriage. I know I will never bring any children into this world, and my lady (4 years together) is on the same page. If we continue to work and play well enough to stay together, it's a possibility. Until then, I'm doing me, she's doing her...

    MClelland Cellars

    I came into pipe smoking as McClelland's was coming to and end. I wasn't on forums or digging into what the "popular" connoisseur pipe blends were. I bought and struggled with 1Q, then Orlik Golden Sliced, HH ODF, and so on. My poor technique and lack of experience made it hard to get off the...

    Kaywoodie No Codes

    FYI I have a kaywoodie White Briar in storage that has a similar size/shape /stinger combo that is also hard to find info on. Despite thorough restoration I doubt it would ever be a good smoker. While Kaywoodie was known mostly for three and four hole stingers, I believe we share what I call the...

    Kaywoodie No Codes

    Lol Thanks for the laugh, I'm not surprised you thought someone added them, but believe it or not, that's how the came from Kaywoodie. Its called "Lady Briar". Very few exist, certainly not in great condition for obvious reasons. I couldn't tell you much about the age other that I'd guess it's...

    C&D Burley Flakes Ranking

    I would also recommend 1 & 2. Burley flake #1 is one of around a handful of tins I've finished so far this year.

    Decades-Old Tobacco: Magical Elixir, or Zombie Dust?

    Most of the old-ish stuff I've had has aged and lasted well after opening. I've never had anything over 20 years though. The blends I like fresh tasted great aged. The blends I didn't like fresh didn't. Who wudda thunk?

    I believe you are right.

    Guide Me on Cobs

    Based on your preferences, I can highly suggest either the general or the 5th Avenue diplomat. I own several and they have been great pipes.

    Deer Tongue

    I've been really fascinated with the chameleon that is deer tongue and thought about doing something similar. Been smoking Engine #382 recently. Where'd you get it? Have a jar of Gentleman Caller that's been on ice for a while, excited to try that one next.

    Is Tongue Bite Over Hyped?

    At my current ability, with the "bite-ist" of blends, and worst of circumstances, it'll take a couple bowls to experience any real tongue bite. I don't smoke those blends often, and certainly not successively, so it's not an issue. My favorite blend that I have cellared, that can bite me, is...

    What’s the Deal with HS Studio Pipes?

    I have a fancy one that had a terrible terrible taste when smoking. Life is too short and I never gave it a second chance.

    Solani Aged Burley Flake vs C&D Pegasus

    I've recently smoked all of those mentioned in this thread (Stonehaven, Pegasus, ABF, and Granger), and they are all so different to not be an apples and apples comparison. Pegasus - I've pressed the Pegasus and hydrated just a tad before putting back on ice while I work through other blends...

    The (Un)Official PipesMagazine Secret Santa 2021!

    I was just thinking about this, what timing! I loved this last year and am definitely in again. Thanks again for organizing, very kind. Edit: Ol' St. Nick (why does your breath smell like liquor?), VA/Or, VA, or VA/Bur please!

    I'm getting all this confused with another listing, so that's my bad as well!

    C&D Dark Burley

    Yep, I think C&D's dark burley is the best in the biz. Would love a focused small batch centered around that varietal.

    What tobacco can replace SG FVF?

    Agreed. I have some pretty old BBF that is very, very sweet.

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2021?***

    I have a couple of these meerschaum-lined sandblasted p-lippers stamped "Grand Prix" and "Grand Bruyere". This one has a forward cant to it almost like a belge. Dipping into a big stash of 1792, which I keep on hand when I need an "assist" to drag me through the work day.
