    On the Topic of Value Pipes: Grabow

    I have a couple of Grabows that are really good pipes considering how much I paid for them and one that is complete crap. The crappy one had a loose stem from the get go and the draft hole was so badly drilled that its almost on the side of the bowl (If look straight down into the bowl with the...

    1-Q. vs Captain Black Royal

    I agree with you 100%. I mentioned once to a member on another pipe forum that 1Q and CB Royal were so close in taste and appearance that I would not be surprised if 1Q was really just CB Royal in bulk form. I also mentioned that, imo, if someone swapped out their bowl of 1Q with a bowl of CB...

    1-Q. vs Captain Black Royal

    Most likely just plain old polypropylene glycol (PPG).

    Of Generosity and Handouts

    I mentioned this same topic in the "Pet Peeves" thread a few months back so I obviously agree with you 100%. At the time there were some (one in particular especially) that didn't seem to have any qualms with making threads asking for free stuff or sending me PMs as well asking the same. I don't...

    H&H Freight Train

    Sounds like Russ has come up with his own version of Old Dark Fired called Freight Train. Currently its only available in a gift set though at P&C. I could do without the cheap pipe and the tobacco jar so hopefully they'll release this as regular offering as I would really like to try it!

    Recommend a C&D English to Me

    For me, hands down it's Tuskegee Airman. Edit: Oops! I got ahead of myself and forgot that you mentioned blends with no perique, so that kinda puts the kibosh on Tuskegee Airman. I would still try it though!

    1st Pouch of SWR

    It's normal. The first pouch I bought, I thought the exact same thing. It looked like crunchy granola. Every single pouch of SWR I've bought is like that and I've talked to many that have smoked SWR for years and all have said that's just the way it is and always has been.

    Underrated and Recommended

    The only one that I really like and is never mentioned or talked about is W.O. Larsen Old Fashioned. Its a Danish aromatic so its not covered in goop and has a wonderful, almost buttery caramel flavor to it. It's not cheap at around $14 per 100g tin and I imagine it can be a little bitey to...

    Think I'm getting a Western bug

    I love Tombstone. "...you called down the thunder, well now you've got it! You see that? It says "United States Marshall." "The Cowboys are finished, you understand? I see a red sash, I kill the man wearing it!"

    The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

    With the exception of Thorin, Dwalin and Balin, the rest were portrayed pretty much as you describe.

    I'm partial to the Diplomats myself. No particular reason though.
