    Super Tiny Gripe

    This is incredibly annoying. Who possibly thinks the new arrangement is better than the old?

    Moved and Organizing My Cellar

    I organize everything by Genre - English, Balkan, Oriental, Virginia, Burley rather than manufacturer. Am I alone in this?

    Comparing 40th Anniversary to Carolina Red Flake

    I was under the impression that McClelland added vinegar to their Virginia blends as an anti fungal agent. From what I recall, the HH series has a blend or two that uses vinegar as well. I can't remember which blends in particular, but it's there if you look for it.

    Comparing 40th Anniversary to Carolina Red Flake

    I never tried the crumble cake from Sutliff, but the Christmas flake version was great. I have a few in my cellar and will be sure to pick a few more up when it makes its return. As for Carolina Red Flake, I have to agree that it doesn't stand up to McClelland's Virginias. It would be nice to...

    Comparing 40th Anniversary to Carolina Red Flake

    This was a great opportunity to open a cellared tin. 40th Anniversary is a shade darker, and it has that amazing McClelland aroma of vinegar and rich tobacco. Carolina Red Flake smells like fresh hay and grass, and the flakes are less dense and more fragile. I'll be waiting for Cringle Flake...

    Available Straight Red Virginia Flake

    Hey everyone, as the title says, I'm looking for a straight red Virginia Flake that I can actually purchase in large numbers. Broken Flakes are okay--I'm looking for something like Christmas Cheer. Any recommendations are welcome.

    When To Stop Adding To Cellar

    I'm done. I have no idea how many pounds I have, but I figure it will take ten days to finish off a tin if I smoke two bowls a day. Since lockdown it seems that P&C has stopped offering weekly ten percent off deals. This has helped ease the addiction, but every time I see a new blend, or feel...

    Straight Deer Tongue Pipe Tobacco

    I bought some Deer Tongue from Amazon, and left a review about my smoking experience. It was promptly deleted. I still have the stuff and I added some to an old blend made by Ed's Pipe Shop in Southern California. Initially the blend had Deer Tongue, but they removed it, which I promptly re...

    Who is DK on Tobaccoreviews.com Because He is a Genius.

    I am saddened that I can no longer search for DK reviews. He's my favorite on the site. It would be nice to add an Emeritus Account to my favorite reviewers, however that does not appear to be an available option. The site says they can reactivate accounts if the user reregisters. For the...

    Blending My Own Pipe Tobacco

    I bought a few pounds of leaf about a year ago. Two months later the bag of Virginias sprouted tobacco beetles. Never again.

    Smoking in the Car

    I tend to dip too, like ray. But spit bottles are disgusting and they add up.

    Smoking in the Car

    My car's getting old, it's about ten years now. I've never smoked in it, but now I'm thinking "why not?" How many of you smoke in the car? Is it a hassle while driving? I can imagine dropping the pipe in my lap and crashing into a vegetable garden.

    Basket pipe advice

    Basket pipes aren't cheap. Buy a Peterson Dublin on Pipesandcigars.com. They have a special for $59.00. That pipe will definitely be better than some no name basket pipe.

    A Latakia Blend for Latakia Haters?

    Sillem Black. It's a sugary English mix, pretty good stuff.

    Gawith Hoggarth & Co
