    Pipe Cleaners

    I prefer B.J. Long regular pipe cleaners and typically purchase them in packs of 100 for $2.00. Never had a reason to change brands or search for another, therefore, cannot speak to the Dill brand.

    Tobaccopipes.com

    I agree. Nothing but exceptional service and speedy processing/shipping. I was however, disappointed when they changed their shipping policy. They used to ship all orders, no matter the size, at free shipping. Even if you were to order one tin, it was free shipping. That has now changed...

    Losing Another Brick & Mortar

    Is she not interested in selling the business? Come to think of it, there may not be too many people interested in purchasing in this political setting. Sad days indeed.

    Corn Cob Pipes

    I love a good corn cob pipe. I have roughly 15 in my collection and keep several cob necked nose warmers on hand for guest who come over and want to smoke (but aren’t pipe smokers). For me, there are some tobaccos that just perform and taste better in a cob. One of those is PS Lux Bullseye...

    Need New Pipe Bag

    I use a Maxpedition found here https://www.maxpedition.com/collections/pouches/products/fatty-pocket-organizer as my weekend pipe bag. It holds 4-5 pipes plus accessories nicely. It’s also really well made.

    Decent Briar for under $50?

    I have found Stanwells and Rattrays pipes in the $50-60 range (new) and they smoke great. I actually own two of each and wouldn’t trade them for the world.

    Central Kentucky Pipe Smokers

    I’m in Lexington if you wanted to meet up for a smoke at Schwabs Pipes and Stuff? If anyone else wants to join in they can do so too. Send me a PM with a date you are available. Cheers!

    Central Kentucky Pipe Smokers

    Greetings everyone, Just wanted to see if there were any other pipe smokers on the forum from the central Kentucky region that may want to convene sometime soon. I would love to help coordinate a regular, monthly meet-up if others are interested. We could meet at one of the local B&M in...

    RIP McCranie's Red Flake

    Wow, that is impressive. I suppose it's hard to determine if he actually likes the blend or not since he has never compared it to anything else. This is both fascinating and disheartening as there are so many great blends available. However, kudos to him on his loyalty for some many years...

    Kid in a Candy Store

    Welcome back to the hobby! I would also suggest tobaccopipes.com if you are looking to pick up a few random tins here and there to try without wanting to pay a crapload for shipping. They offer free shipping on all orders, no matter how big or small. It's a very nice service if you are just...

    Could 80 Year Old Cigars Still Be Smoked?

    I have a rather extensive collection of cigars (both cuban and non-cuban) that range in production from 2005 to present. My experience has been hit and miss with aged cigars. Folks will argue, however, cubans do age better than non-cubans, and I tend to enjoy them more so than other brands...

    Cob Lovers

    I own one of each and they are both excellent smokers. I highly suggest these pipes to those who love cobs. Cheers!

    Who Is The Best Virginia Blender With McClelland Now Gone?

    Dan tobacco makes some really great VA blends in my opinion. With Dunhill and McClelland both exiting the market, Dan tobacco is my next favorite in line. Maybe I shouldn’t have said that out loud. Jinxed it....

    Mystery Tobacco Review #1

    Greetings all! If this breaks forum rules I apologize, and will make sure it doesn't happen again. Just wanted to share the Mystery Tobacco review that a panelist of pipe smokers completed this past month. I don't want to reveal the tobacco on the forum (spoiler), however, if you want to see...

    How Old Is Everyone

    33 years old. I've been smoking a pipe for 7 years and cigars for 12.

    Email from 4Noggins.

    Good for Rich! I hope the new owner(s) continue the consistency of the 4Noggins bulk blends. I must admit that I am a sucker for Bald Headed Teacher and keep it regularly stocked. Fingers crossed.....
