    Bruno Nuttens Bing

    Very classy, nice transition from the shank to the band. Looks like the kind of pipe that will look great when it's nice and well used.

    Perique Sourcing

    I got my shipments of D&R blenders bench, and my Sutliff TS20 blending perique. I've already started experimenting and will post some photos and thoughts when I stop working myself to death.

    Sutliff 515 RC-1 Matured Red Virginia

    I have at least 10 pounds of 515 in the cellar. I'm a big red VA fan, so it wasn't a hard decision. Most will be mixed with whatever perique I like best once these perique orders pour in. The blend will sit in mason jars for the long haul.

    Do You Smoke Primarily with Nose or Mouth or Both?

    If I don't like the retrohale, I don't like the blend.

    Perique Sourcing

    I was able to source a good amount of blenders bench perique from D&R, though it seems even that stuff is in a now non-existent supply. I will update when I get it in the mail. I'm still going to keep an eye out for the stokkebye 311 perique, and for the updated whole leaf perique if/when it...

    Perique Sourcing

    Just for the sake of clarity, I was referring to This retailer earlier as expensive, NOT whole leaf tobacco.com, which is out of stock of perique at the time of this post.

    Perique Sourcing

    I will try that tomorrow. Previously when I've called for other things they've directed me to Trishas Cafe, so fingers crossed. That's disappointing. I have some Sutliff perique in the way (TS20). I'll put it to use but the input seems to be it isn't the best. I'll keep everyone posted...

    Perique Sourcing

    I just found that. Might have to go that route unless I can find something cheaper.

    Perique Sourcing

    What is everyone's preferred blending perique? Why? Anyone tried the blending perique from (and branded by) Pipes and Cigars? Also I've been unable to find Stokkebye Perique (#311). Anyone know a source where I could get some? Thanks in advance. I've read the thread covering the same topic...

    Sam Gawith Becoming The New Unicorn

    When my cheaper sources have been unavailable, I've found them through ACE Hardware in the past, which I know is all over the place and has the option to pick up locally. Wide & Regular Mouth Canning Jars at Ace Hardware -...

    Perique Lovers: What Are Your Favorite Blends?

    Funny you started this thread. I just bought some more blending perique to sprinkle in with all the open tins/jars that I can't bring myself to finish. I also love perique, and added to any blend in the right amount, always makes from a little to a large improvement. I like mine plummy, dark...

    Sam Gawith Becoming The New Unicorn

    A ton of the stuff that people claim are unicorns becomes available at least once or twice a year. Even if it's bought up, it'll be back. With minimal effort this stuff is easily available. Hell there is STILL Esoterica listed as available, at least in small amounts, online, let alone at B&M's.

    The Quality of This New BC

    Couldn't agree more. My BC is my best smoker.

    Motorcycle Riders’ Thread - Continued

    Late to the party, but glad to see other riders here. I track a '17 FZ-10. If the photo looks funny a portion was cut out for identity purposes.

    Disappointed with Match Balkan Sobranie

    OH I am quite the fan. And of GL Pease in general. My only nitpick is the plug is a little loose, I wish it was more dense so I could more easily cut it. Not much of a hangup though.

    Disappointed with Match Balkan Sobranie

    Sutliff BSOMM is my favorite, as I find it the heaviest in Orientals. It is indeed similar, if not exact as others have stated, to white knight. The Orientals in both age really well. Balkan Supreme is very well blended in that no components really over power the others. Smooth and quality. I...

    Dan Tobacco Old Ironsides

    From the Latakia-philes that I trust, Old Ironsides is at the top of the bunch along with Penzance, Nightcap, Artisans Blend, and Quiet Nights. I've yet to pop the Ironsides tin I just bought - I want to let it age at least a year. Thanks for the review you've given me another one to look...
