    HH Rustica

    First bowl going. Surprisingly Burley-forward taste! I am pretty sensitive to nicotine, so I was worried, but so far, it is perfectly palatable and tame. The flavor is like a very refined Black Rope so far. It is very full tasting, but not in an offensive way. There is a verrrry faint natural...

    HH Rustica

    My tin arrived today. The tin note is quite similar to Gawith Black rope. Looking forward to trying it out!

    Comoys Cask no.4 Navy Stand Fast Flake

    This is interesting to me, because I have tried both, and that caused me to wonder if Comoy’s is just tinned Stokkebeye. Seeing that you had a totally different experience is making me think about revisiting for a more side-to-side comparison.

    Removing A Stain From A Meerschaum Pipe

    They can be sanded away very gently and rewaxed, which is what I do with estate meerschaum. It’s a lot of careful work, though.

    Most Bready or Hay-Like Full Virginias?

    Capstan Blue is fairly hay-heavy, I think.

    Good information, thank you, George!

    Is There any Dunhill Chestnut 5102 Pipe with Black Stem?

    Good places to check for authenticity on Dunhill stems is the tenon and the slot. Dunhill tenons have a little shoulder slant where the tenon meets the stem, and the slot has rounded sides, rather than the very rectangular look that is more common. Most (if not all) replacements I’ve seen do not...

    Bob Dylan Releases His Longest Song Ever.

    Gosh what an absolutely incredible and stirring performance in that video. Brilliant song and brilliant presentation of it. Fantastic organ playing.

    Dunhill Replacement Stem Needed

    New Warped Tobaccos

    The Haunting was really good. I have been tempted by the other two but never got them...I got one each of these newer two. My favorite cigar costs as much for one as an entire tin of tobacco, so I’m excitedly exploring these cigar leaf mixtures for my wallet’s sake haha.

    How to Repair this Finish?

    I have a Savinelli that’s done this. I am planning on just waxing over it with the buffing wheel because I like a smooth shine, and a little color discrepancy won’t bother me if that occurs. If you’re looking to make it look correct, I’d recommend stripping off the gloss coat and then waxing it.

    Preferred SG Blend?

    I also would go with Cabbie’s, although without the intention of detracting from the others. Cabbie’s has more “grassy” taste, which is my preference in Virginias.

    "Antique" Taste in Pipe

    I think salt and charcoal do the same thing. I think charcoal might work better just because it’s ground finer?

    HH Acadian Perique Discontinued?

    It is pretty good! Hoping maybe they plan on replacing it with another Vaper?

    Broke Down and Bought Some Motzek Strang

    Beautiful shots of beautiful stuff! I’ve read so much about that tobacco here. Looks great! Eager to hear your thoughts.

    BLWB? What Do You All Think of It?

    I get a lot of propylene glycol taste from it, which doesn’t agree with me. I like the flavor, but most aromatics I’ve tried have too much PG, which I sadly don’t enjoy.
