    What's The Difference...?

    What is the difference between these stout twists - Brown Bogie, Brown Irish X, Black Bogie, Black Irish XXX? I'm a fan of Brown Bogie - very smooth smoke, very good taste and somewhat strong in both taste & strength. I find it is a very easy tobacco to deal with and requires not too many...

    Storing Pipe Tobacco During Home Remediation From Hurricane

    I'm running into the same thing with my cigars in the wineador. I hesitate to keep the cigars at a friend's house - he will likely freely sample and I'm out of my home for 7-8 weeks! :oops:

    Unlikely to Ever Get to Try Penzance

    Penzance is truly a nice blend, but nothing more. It is not the Holy Grail. Honestly, there are many other blends that are in the same realm - English/Scottish/Oriental that are easily as good, if not better. I had an aged bag and traded for a pipe. Rather have a moderately nice pipe than an...

    Lost Package?

    If you're in Florida, your package is probably buried in the beach sand piles somewhere along Longboat Key!

    Storing Pipe Tobacco During Home Remediation From Hurricane

    Mostly good advice here - thanks! I'm stoked about the possibility of the heat having a positive effect. Am told by inspectors it will likely be 7-8 weeks before we can get back in the house. Then, I can begin the priming, painting, flooring and replace the kitchen. There's always a good...

    Storing Pipe Tobacco During Home Remediation From Hurricane

    I have a dilemma and need the advice of others here on the forum, please. Our home was flooded from the storm surge in hurricane Helene and we have to move everything into storage and vacate until drywall is removed and floors are sanitized. I am told by the FEMA remediation people that this...

    HU Tobacco Coming to the States

    What's the deal with the 'old' tins Not being sealed??? Is that for real? Why would a pipe tobacco company not seal their tins?

    HU Tobacco Coming to the States

    Favorite Crossover Blend With Some Strength

    Typically, English or Latakia blends with a casing or other kind of topnote flavoring.

    Favorite Crossover Blend With Some Strength

    Do tell what your favorite strong crossover pipe blend. Not the mild or mild-medium ones, but tobaccos with some balls!

    Easy to Find Esoterica During this last Drop?

    With the state tax being so high on pipe tobaccos, there are very few pipe shops left here in FL. Interesting enough, there is no state tax on cigars. One of only 5 states/districts in the country to boast that.

    Jim's C&D Warped: Scarecrow 2024 Review.

    Very intriguing review, Jim. Enticed me to order several tins as a change up to my usual English offerings. Well done my friend!

    Hurricane Preparedness in FL

    Yeah - another disturbance forecasted to hit this area around Wednesday. So far, they guesstimate a cat 2. We're near the water - going to stay with friends after buttoning up as best we can. Our place flooded from Helene, so we aren't finished digging out from that one. Just got replacement...

    America's Cup- Finals of Challenger Series

    I followed the America's Cup regularly back when the boats were much more traditional monohulls. Remember when the New Zelanders beat Connors - a great event! IMHO, the new boats are not what the Cup is about. Classic sailing.

    Hurricane Preparedness in FL

    We all collect tins of pipe tobacco to stock our cellars. Here in the Gulf coast of Florida, we also collect lots of waterproof duct tape!!! :col:

    WTB Sutliff Maple Shadows II. 10.05.2024

    I missed this latest release and am looking to see if anyone may have a tin or two they would part with. I'm dealing with aftermath of recent hurricane here in FL Gulf coast - went to order too late! Would really like something positive to look forward to!
