    HU Retailer That Also Ships Snuff to US of A?

    Best I've had so far is Wilson's of Sharow Grand Cairo. Toque Xmas pudding is decent. Still warming up to the 6photo stuff.

    R.I.P. Storytellers Pipe

    Exactly. But I'm not calling BS on storytellers as their explanation is their own, and they have a point about the changing of the times. I try not to be political, but the practice of certain states, such as my California, bullying retailers out of state to collect taxes is real nonsense in...

    Where's All This Aged Tobacco Coming From?

    Select tobacco, oftentimes in big bales or pallets, can be stored and used by a blending company for a long, long time. This has been talked about by the big blenders and blending houses. I know Sutliff has large stores of a variety of tobacco. Depending on the source, it was believed that...

    Straight Pipe Smokers

    Me! Although I can deviate, generally I'm attracted to straight Canadians, billiards and Dublins, and lovats.

    Spaghetti Western?

    I had a bunch of stuff typed out in agreement, but that's just beating a dead horse. In all my interests, hobbies, and time on message boards, it's a pervasive aspect that is always present with humans unfortunately. Insecurity. Back to tobacco. I like the idea of the new Spaghetti Western, due...

    Spaghetti Western?

    Definitely. Just 2 though because I have so many strong blends in the cellar. I buy way too much KBV. Then again he makes stuff that is not always easy to find (stuff with perique, VA/ORs, tobacco present aromatics, etc.). I will let this sit for a year though before trying it so I'm useless in...

    Peterson’s Explains The Black Bowl Coating!

    I rubbed the coating out in my new Peterson Smooth System. As someone has said, it is rubbery and gooey after smoking - I initially had no issue with it, it just wiped off so easily I figured I'd finish the job. I have no preference either way, but am building up a harder coating of traditional...

    Kevin Arthur Pipe - There Are Still Amazing Deals Out There

    That's funny, I think I bid on that one. Congrats! Definitely some deals to be had.

    Fantastic Drink/Tobacco Pairing

    I drink mainly water or Lacroix when I smoke, with the occasional beer, nothing amazing. Pairings I like: -Red wine with a good Red VA dominated blend. -High quality milk or chocolate milk with any latakia or oriental dominant blend. It can be very good as weird as it sounds.

    Sutliff: Cringle Flake 2020 is Out

    My thoughts exactly. As a Red VA and big Perique fan, I had no choice but to throw my wallet at this one.

    Opening An Irreplaceable Tin

    I'd love to smoke some of my "irreplaceable" stuff. My only problem is I don't need another opened tin/jar :ROFLMAO: - I've got alot of smoking to do before I open more stuff!

    Just a reminder that GL Pease recreated these blends - and that he blended the original mixtures at the Drucquer and Sons B&M in Berkeley.

    Sir Fred, Feline Smoking Companion

    My smoking Buddy, Kakoo. While I'm smoking he's usually on patrol on the railing next to me... But usually on my lap like this... One things for certain, he likes his Pipa like his dad.

    Have Not Tried Any Dunhill

    Dunhill Early Morning Pipe was the first tobacco that "Clicked" for me as a brand new smoker. It was later that I learned that it was the Virginia's that I got that fleeting wonderful flavor from. I've tried it since then and it's been the most "Meh" English ever. These days, there's little...

    My First Nic Hit

    Thank god that Golden Blend isn't readily available near me. I LOVED that stuff. Believe it or not, the only time I got a big Nic hit as described by OP was from GLP Gaslight of all things. Didn't dry it enough, puffed and torched it like a coal furnace, and smoked it out of a giant MM...

    Hello From Vietnam!

    Welcome! I loved my time in Vietnam (stayed in the greater HCMC area mostly) and can not wait to go back! I think about it often... How do you get your tobacco in Vietnam? Are there any local blends/tobacco unique to Vietnam?
