    What Will Be The Most Sought-After Sutliff Blends 5 Years From Now?

    Sutliff acted to me like they had money to burn. Which to me says the products probably were doing a.o.k. but management chose to spend that surplus on things that I have no idea what the return for them was. I think they certainly are. Just because they haven't utilized it properly doesn't...

    They got the money to do those things. C&D is pretty much the brand I guess I am going to smoke.

    that's my first thought.

    I agree. Though it will be one no one thought of that will be the big one.

    Kudos to the Zippo Warranty Program

    my favorite one is someone I knew found a rusty zippo in a stream and sent it to them and they sent it back to him fixed. He sent them a letter that was more look at how cool it is that your product held up that long. The letter explained that the lighter has a lifetime transferable warranty...

    fun thing here. If they change course we'll never know if it was them feeding the market false information or if they realize they are throwing away a gold mine.

    Erik Stokkebye Pipe Tobacco Humidor

    That's the fun thing about higher price points you don't have to sell too many. Also like that it says they're listening to what is happening on the consumer end.

    Cob>Briar

    I know that's how you feel but I certainly can tell differences between different pipes. I wouldn't say any of them are critical. But you can't convince me there isn't a difference if that's my experience. However I will say to I've never seen a difference that lines up with magical thinking...

    Skippy's Blend of the Week

    I will always get excited when someone enjoys Yorktown. It's my main blend. Love that one so damn much.

    Remember The Days..

    the other end of that was when the single was the weakest track on an album and it wasn't till 20 years later that we found out how good the rest was.

    Pearl Harbor Day

    Every generation does this. Maybe it's because I live in a State with a lot of old farts, but a lot of younger people are still aware of a lot of the history of WW2. Sounds like that's not universal.

    Cob>Briar

    What you're saying kind of reminds me of how many activities have tools that require more technique to use but have better results in the hands of the skilled or practiced. Where the amateur's version is easier to use and certainly can get the job done but when you try to do something a little...

    Pearl Harbor Day

    Humans are like plants we're a product of our environment and we'll end up being what we need to be to get through the situations we're born into. One of the reasons we maybe shouldn't try to make everything so easy.

    Pearl Harbor Day

    Stupid fact I wouldn't exist if this didn't happen. My mothers side of the family only came over from Italy to join up and fight on the Allies side of things. That might have been an interesting story but my understanding is the relative that came over wasn't big on talking about things or...

    Subtle sweet non-aromatic recommendations?

    I know North woods is a cross over if I remember correctly. Which are also known sometimes as aromatic English. One my all time favs is Kramers blend for Cary Grant. There are many others and yeah there is something about that right in the middle where neither the aromatic or natural tobacco...

    Cob>Briar

    honestly some tobaccos taste better in a cob and some in briar. The thing is the ones that taste better in a cob aren't better in an earth shattering way but the ones that taste better in a briar certainly fall flat in a cob. Or at least that's my experience. You can do more interesting shapes...
