    Do You Have a Lakeland Pipe?

    Yes, I have one Briar and one Cobb I smoke Lakelands out of. The briar is for Ennerdale and blends with that sort of sauce, the briar is for stronger blends such as rum flake. The lighter dressed blends get smoked out of a va/VaPer pipe. Which leads me to a follow up question: For those of...

    Do You Have a Lakeland Pipe?

    Ennerdale dropped in the big Gawith drop back in January. Only available on bulk, I think. Word on the street is that it will be available a little more frequently now that Gawith has a different distributor in the US.

    What Do You Smoke Out of Your Biggest Bowl?

    This right here. The Castello “G” and the MM General are for when I have the time and situation to slowly enjoy a 90-100 minute smoke. Generally then, it’ll be one of my favorite Va/VaPer/VaOr blends such as Fillmore or Bijou. Broken flake burns great in a big bowl.

    HS Studio / Road Town Pipes

    I have three of these. I bought the first one without looking too closely at the dimensions. It's really small and I almost never smoke it. My second one is a fine smoker and is used for Lakeland blends. My third one is pretty much a Savinelli 122 clone, and it has developed into a fantastic...

    And We're Glad (x3) to Have Arrived.

    From one Phan to another, welcome! I got a Glide at my first Phish show at Alpine Valley 6/25/04. Been hooked on ‘em ever since.

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

    Well tonight was a late one. Dinner at a colleagues house that went until 1:30. But the good part is that it's now 2:20 AM and it's FINALLY 90 degrees F, which makes this the most comfortable patio bowl in a couple of weeks. Highs the last five days have been 112, 115, 115, 114, and 112, which...

    Thought I'd Try to Make Some Mouths Water

    Welcome to town! You picked a good week to move in! ? I moved here from the Midwest about 5 yrs ago. Probably leaving soon though (job related). I’m pretty sure at least half of that tobacco is beyond the expiration dates. I’ll be right over to help with disposal.

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

    Currently having some Gawith Brown Flake Unscented in a Sasieni two dot 1/8th bent billiard. It's 12:08 AM and it's STILL 99 degrees F at my location.

    Nominate An Under-Appreciated Pipe Brand

    I feel like Tsuge sometimes deserves more love. Their mid level pipes like the Tokyo series are interesting, elegant, and well constructed, and the Ikebana line competes well with the best of any major pipe manufacturer world-wide.

    Costco Cognac, mmm!

    My dad and I both enjoy the Kirkland cognac. In fact, he just left me a bottle after staying with us for a few days. It’s a damn good deal for an XO, and while it’s not the best around it’s better than average for sure. It holds its own against bottles twice the price. I’ve had good...

    Ever Hate a Pipe for Reasons Other Than the Way It Smokes?

    Yep. The longer I smoke, the more picky I’ve become about stemwork, and especially the button. I have a few pipes that are great smokers that will probably show up in the for sale section sometime soon because the stem just doesn’t suit me.

    How Many Smoke Out of the C&D Tins?

    I will immediately jar most tins I open unless it’s something I know I’ll finish something on. For instance, I know that when I open a tin of Fillmore or sixpence it will likely be gone in 1-2 weeks and the C and D/GL Pease tins are perfectly sufficient to hold moisture for at least a month...

    Sutliff Crumble Kake Red VA...Thoughts?

    I’ve got a tin of this in the cellar. My Secret Santa giftee identified it as one of his favorites, so I snagged an extra tin for myself. I think I’ll give it another year or so before opening, however. I found RC-515 to be MUCH better, less vinegary, and smoother after a year or so in a jar.

    A Few Blends, Quick Ranks

    Fillmore is my favorite VaPer right now. I’ve only tried it fresh and 3 yrs old. The 3 yr old tin was exquisite but the fresh was pretty darn good too. I’d love to try some at 15 yrs!

    What's Your Favorite Pipe for Backpacking or Camping?

    I’d go with a Morgan bones, maybe one of the short ones so the stem doesn’t get damaged. I just think the plastic stems on MM cobs are too prone to breakage. But what do I know. I just finished a 3 day trip down the Escalante in Utah and while I brought two pipes, the one I smoked exclusively...

    Your Own Secret Blend?!?!?

    I just mixed up 40 percent C and D The Beast, 40 percent Yorktown, and 20 percent stoved Va. letting it sit for two weeks and then I’ll give it a shot, but considering the constituent tobaccos I’m sure it will be quite tasty.

    Order from KBV Held Up by USPS for Two Weeks?

    My KBV order arrived today. Shipped on May 9th, so it took 18 days from Memphis area to Tucson. Funny enough, a pipe also arrived today. Shipped Monday from MS and supposed to arrive tomorrow, but it came a day early. You win some, you lose some, I suppose.

    Order from KBV Held Up by USPS for Two Weeks?

    Hey @sandollars, did your KBV order ever come? I'm still waiting on mine, and the tracking hasn't even been update (except to say: running late) in 8 days.

    Smoking an Entire Tin as a Learning Process

    I’m a little late to this party, but this is a great post! I’m glad to have been a part of your introduction to Va and VaPer tobaccos! For the first couple of years I was a regular pipe smoker I pretty much exclusively jumped from blend to blend, rarely repeating a smoke back-to-back. But in...

    Order from KBV Held Up by USPS for Two Weeks?

    Yep. There is a certain faction that would be thrilled to see USPS die so their private enterprise buddies could make billions off the left-overs.
