    From Russia With Love : Andrey Kharitonov Black and Red Bamboo Tulips with Stand

    Glad you were the one to buy them, hopefully that means I get to see em more. I have a Canadian from Andrey, it's a great pipe that was (un)fairly priced in my favor.

    Rubber Stem protectors

    Due to weird medical and eccentricity issues, I prefer not to clench. I only use one softie, on one specific pipe, which fits the stem very well. I do clench that pipe, amongst very few. Otherwise those softy bits are usually an issue (cleanliness, fit, etc.) IMO.

    Hello from Cajun Country

    I've planned and canceled, and will probably plan and cancel again, a trip through your neck of the woods. Always wanted to go to the Bayou to eat, do the music thing, and "meet the people". Welcome. It's nice to have people around, that have been around, in the world of pipe smoking.

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

    Two pipas 1) Elizabethan Match (heat aged a couple years) - Excellent, really really excellent. And 2) Sun Bear 2020 - much better with age, still a ways ago. Both in a meerschaum lined, p-lip "Grand Prix" estate

    No worries! Seems like everyone is breathing through a straw these days.

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

    A mixture of Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend and Five Bros in a J. Everett Comission panelled shank sandblast lovat/billiard. I wouldn't mix the two again, EGR is much better alone.

    Any Love for Penny Farthing?

    I don't think I've experienced any covid-related tasting changes. I'm in a profession that requires me to get tested regularly as a result of being in contact with the less-than-healthy, and I've never tested positive, despite being exposed to many covid-positive persons. Despite all the...

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

    My first bowl ever of Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend, in an Ali-carved Reverse Calabash Meerschaum.

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

    I've had a similar experience. I tried hitting it with a food processor contraption to make the cut finer and meld better. Seemed to work. I found it was way too inconsistent, and I usually don't care about consistent.

    Dedicated pipes and flavor

    In my experience, the water flushing technique even further imparts the unique "ghost" of a blend into a specific pipe, and at a faster rate. All good things, IMO.

    Finally Done Building My New Pipe Room

    Very jealous of your guys' smoking spots, but it gives me motivation for the future to have something similar. Well done.

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

    I've been way too busy, and I've had not a single pipe in the last 3 days, until tonight that is. Back to back with the following: First, Granger in this little Kaywoodie Relief Grain Pot Then a mixture of Five Bros and Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut in a BBB Special Make Christmas 1989 Bulldog...

    Watch City's "Rouxgaroux" In-Stock

    The only reason I'm not smoking Rouxgaroux now, is because I have several Virginia blends with some significant age to go through. Otherwise it was the best "Fresh" VaPer I've ever had.

    Just To See If I Could

    I saw that and thought about your previous collection. It went to the right home, knowing that you'll bring it back to its former glory.

    Should I Care about this Drilling by Castello?

    I'd post a photo with the shank of the stummel visible from the top.

    Perique Recommendations?

    Try D&R Rimboche AP or SJ, not heavy in the perique but a great showcase of it. GL Pease Haddo's Delight is no slouch in the perique department and offers and interesting Va/Bur/Per + Rum option. Haunted Bookshop is a good example of a Perique-driven blend where the Va and Burleys don't take...

    Mild/Virginia-esque Cigars

    I will recommend specific cigars, based on your criteria: Diamond Crown - Julius Caeser Arturo Fuente - 8-8-8 Candela, or Flor Fina 8-5-8 One I've been meaning to try, that might fit your bill is the Sobremesa Brulee.

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

    Can't wait to read the review. I've been loyal, on a continual basis to this Bruno Nuttens Bing. A&C Peterson Escudo has been the main blend. About 7 or so coins left.
