    The Pipe Shop, Edinburgh?

    I buy a host of pipes every few months. Great customer service and they get to the states quickly. Wish I could see the place in person, good luck.

    So What is the Latest on Dunhill?

    I sent the letter a couple months ago, and I sent one before that when the news broke. This was sent to the head of BAT: nicandro_durante@bat.com; Greetings Sir. If I understand printed news and gossip, it seems that Dunhill pipe tobacco will soon cease production. As a pipe smoker of many...

    Cheaper Wooden Pipes

    If you want good cheap pipes I would suggest The Pipe Shop in the UK. Parkers are about $35 after currency conversion.

    Non-Aro Vs. Aro Status -- A Shift

    Aros seem popular amongst the Millennial generation, kids about 20 to 25 year old that have picked up the pipe for whatever reason. You can feel that on the Reddit forums for pipe smoking. They take their Captain Black Grape seriously.

    Carter Hall - Bad Flavour

    I get a metallic taste. Not a favorite but still better than Prince Albert.

    Stanwell Brushed Brown Pipes $19 Pipesandcigars.com

    Cheap pipes in classic shapes are a serious weakness.

    Leaf Only Sample

    No shredder on hand. I was very seriously contemplating buying a pasta machine hand crank. Any thoughts on this?

    Leaf Only Sample

    By the way, you are a tobacco sage. Thank you for all that you know and your willingness to share it with people like me.

    Leaf Only Sample

    Ack! I already bought the calcium!! I'm new to this, and it seems like you have a serious amount of experience. If I dissolve the treacle in the Calcium, it should work?

    Leaf Only Sample

    I'm always up for an adventure. After 12 years of smoking a pipe it feels great to actually put something together on my own, apart from basic blending. I'm not quite sure how to handle the casing, which will be Brandy and Treacle, and what proportions to use. But it will be fun figuring it all...

    Leaf Only Sample

    I see, thank you again. It is clear by weight that the stems are a significant portion of the leaf. The process looks laborious.

    Leaf Only Sample

    Fascinating, thank you. You wouldn't happen to know if there is a sound technique to deveining tobacco do you? I did check the forums.

    Leaf Only Sample

    How would I do that? Douse everything in vinegar like McClelland?

    Leaf Only Sample

    Bought my first batch of whole leaf to blend a plug. Half of it consists of broad, thick stems. We’ll see what happens.

    Now that new blends have started trickling in from the likes of C&D and others, where’s Greg on this? More plugs and flakes please.

    DC-Area Masonic Lodge Pipe Event

    I would enjoy this. Sadly I must ask if membership dues are considerable.

    Stonehaven Recipe

    I have Dark Fired, White Burley and Carolina on hand, with Treacle. Apparently there may be a sample coming so it may be time to experiment. Rough guess: Stone Maiden 1. Kentucky 10 percent 2. White Burley 30 3. Virginia Red 30 4. Virginia Bright 30 5. Treacle (applied...
