    Fillmore

    I just picked up a 2 oz tin of this in a recent order. It came with two years age on it already (dated 9/18). Reading everyones descriptions is really making me excited about opening it. Strong, richly flavored VaPer? Sounds like it's right up my alley!

    Almost Like Hitting the Lottery

    Rumor has it that stuff is terrible. You probably ought to send the extra 8 tins to me for proper disposal. I have a proprietary incineration process that will prevent it from ever polluting another cellar again.

    Moved and Organizing My Cellar

    Damn dude! Nice cellar. It just needs a little more Marlin Flake, Byronic Slices, and Rattray's Exotic Passion. ;) Was the move just across town, or did you move cross-country? I'll likely be moving in the next 9 months or so, likely cross-country, and I'm dreading packing up all the...

    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2020?***

    Enjoying some Cornell and Diehl Opening Night in a Sasieni two dot 1/4 bent billiard. Excellent smoke!

    Happy Anniversary to Me!

    Wait. @BROBS wouldn’t be here if I hadn’t joined? OH GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE? ?

    My Poor Wallet...

    I resemble this. It’s ok though, because after picking up some Watch City R and B next week I’ll be done buying tobacco for at least 2-3 months (or weeks, or, most likely, days).

    Happy Anniversary to Me!

    I'm working on it! I'm impressed (dismayed?) by the people who join only to have "senior" status one month in, and "preferred" status 2-3 months in.

    Happy Anniversary to Me!

    That's like...the nicest thing anyones ever said to me. :LOL:

    Happy Anniversary to Me!

    Wow. I figured with all your posts you had to have been here for years, or that you were an artificially-created bot meant to create drama and sow chaos with statements such as “marlin flake sucks.” ? I suppose some of us are more verbose than others.

    Happy Anniversary to Me!

    Well, I joined this forum and began participating in conversation with you fine folk exactly a year ago today. I also began cellaring tobacco on the same day, with the receipt of an order from P & C. I did my first cellar inventory last night and found that I've cellared about 11.5 lbs in the...

    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2020?***

    Enjoying a bowl of Seattle Pipe Club Bourbon Barrel aged Plum Pudding in a Mastro d Paja Classica Bent Billiard. Good blend for a chilly night!

    Pipe Smoking Activities

    Working on my bike. Sitting in a hammock in the wilderness. And my favorite, amateur astronomy with a pipe.

    The Dark Side

    I just got a General as well. It's my second cob. Love the bowl dimensions and it smokes great!

    First Impression: GL Pease Stonehenge Flake

    Great write-up and pictures, Jay! This is a favorite of mine. I think the light topping and the tobaccos really complement each other well. Louisiana Perique flake is similar but not exactly the same, although the LP flake I smoked was younger than the Stonehenge. I think they'll both age...

    The (Un)Official Secret Santa 2020!

    In like Flynn! Preferences are: Va, VaPers, VaOr, VaBur, and Lakelands. Pretty ok with English/Balkans too. Not a huge Burley or Aro fan. This should be fun!

    New. But Not New?? Cheers from the Pacific Northwest

    Well if you've climbed Rainier you have legit mountaineering skills. That is not a climb to be taken lightly! And yes, so many great recreational opportunities, even in the rain. If you don't hike in the rain in western OR/WA, you won't hike much at all! As for the cathartic effect, I feel...

    Point taken. :LOL:

    Tea And Pipes

    I enjoy a nice stout Irish Breakfast tea when I'm hankering for some black tea, but most often I'll be found drinking iced Hibiscus tea with my pipe.

    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2020?***

    Enjoying my first bowl of KBV Samsun and Delilah in a Cob, along with a cup of coffee. With the Burley, Cavendish, and light cocoa topping, this is an excellent early-in-the-day blend for those of us who love VaOrs.
