    Sutliff Maple Shadows II

    Sutliff Maple Shadows II Well, I screwed up and missed this last release. Dealing with storm damage here in FL and when I got around to ordering - butkis! So, anyone have a tin to sell?

    Too Much Tobacco. What Should I Smoke First?

    Not to worry. You cannot possibly go through that much any time soon. You will be really happy when you see those new tins have some age on them down the road! When you figure out your preferences and tastes, you can sell or trade what you don't fancy. I did the same and still have many tins...

    The Cat is Stealing my Tobacco!

    Turnabout is fair play... You need to steal the cat's catnip and smoke that! :oops:

    Pipes That Don't Stay Lit?

    Sell or trade it. You won't have confidence in that particular pipe. Life is short - not worth the time & trouble. Just my 2.5c (adjusted for inflation).

    Differences Among the Toscano Maestro Blends?

    Original Title: What is the difference in the three Toscano Maestro Blends? I see that SP has Toscano's Maestro series and wonder is anyone here has any experience with these blends. I also enjoy cigars and find Toscano dry cigars to be excellent with rich & strong Dark Fired tastes. Like to...

    Jim's Revised Solani 633 and ABF Reviews.

    Jim, Thanks for the updated information. Without your updates these changes would likely have been supposition to many like myself. I would have thought my taster is off! Very much appreciated! On a side note - why in the world would the blenders change such once great products??? Clearly...

    Pipe Shape Preferences Over Time

    I prefer varying degrees of bents. Last few years, I've become partial to shallower Pots and Authors with wide bowls. Then again...I've become fond of a few Churchwardens, too!

    Newbie Questions.

    #1. No - not even remotely like a cigar. #2. Yes - acquired taste. Also, more work than cigars, but much lower in cost for the tobacco. #2. No - your fears are unfounded! #3. Stay away from cheap aromatics. They are wet with PG and will steam your tongue. Good start is with mild English...

    A few beginner questions

    Look at estate pipes - usually very affordable and can be found well under $50 US. Good luck!

    Cellaring question

    Don't worry about the tobacco getting a little dry - easy to rehydrate. Take aluminum foil and make a small 'bowl'. Take about 1/4 paper towel and fold it up very small, wet it and squeeze enough water out so it does not drip freely. Put the wet folded paper towel into the foil bowl and put...

    Are Sillems aromatics known for a tendency to deliver any bite? Particularly Sillems Black & Linea Epoque Antique.

    Recommendations Needed On English-Aro Crossovers

    I'm looking to have a go with some crossover blends that lean towards the English side. My usual preferences are for English, Scottish and Burley blends. Like to find a few crossovers to try that are a bit stronger with good toppings / casings. Suggestions appreciated!

    Your Own "Worst" Tobacco

    SG 1792 Flake. Nastiest stuff that ever entered one of my pipes! I remember the taste vividly... much like the scent of burnt tar & rubber. Ended up giving the tin and the pipe away. cray
