Is this an annual or regular C & D limited edition release? How often does this come out and what are the differences in the releases?- badbriar

Turkish Latakia?
Yeah - the description does indeed sound like it is different from Cyprian. The sizzle always gets me! :rolleyes: Still, it will be interesting to see if there is actually any difference.- badbriar

Turkish Latakia?
I fell for the sizzle and ordered some From Beyond. It was the Turkish Latakia did me in. Is Turkish Latakia a new thing, or are there other blends that include this iteration of Latakia? If so, what other readily available blends include Turkish Latakia?- badbriar

Full Bent or Bent Billiard?
I'm not a clencher, so my preferences are large, thick bowled pipes with a good length. Something masculine in the hand. I prefer quarter to half bents to straight stems, except the occasional Canadian. IMHO, some full bents are difficult to to get a pipe cleaner through and aren't quite as...- badbriar

Pipe Smoking doesn't Interest me Anymore
Find / make some friends, go to a good cigar shop and hang out, shoot the shit and cure the ills of the world! Of course, you will want to get a good cigar and have a nice bourbon to accompany! There are a few shops here in Sarasota, FL that allow adult beverages. Buds and I have wind-down...- badbriar

Maybe a Little Topping...
So, I am a lifelong English / Scottish style enthusiast and am looking to expand my horizons. What do you all recommend for a full flavored, strong lightly topped or cased blend for a latakia fan to look into? I am not interested in any of the full-on aros. Rather give a quality, lightly...- badbriar

C&D Choices
I've not been big on stocking up on CD blends - not sure why. May be the comic strip names & artwork. At any rate, I'm about to take advantage of SP's sale and try a number of C&D blends to see what's what. Common denominator to these is that all are supposed to be a little more stout blends...- badbriar

Differences Among Similar Blends?
I've enjoyed pipes for some time and have run across a few blends that I find quite similar and I can't quite tell the difference. One pair is White Knight and Black House. Another similar pair is Red Rapparee and Black Mallory. What do you all find that differs in these close pairs?- badbriar

Making a Blah Blend more Interesting
I ran into the same thing with an almost tasty blend that was a bit lacking. It took small steps to get there, but the end result was amazing! Added the following; Stoved Virginia, unflavored Black Cavendish, Perique, Brown Flake Unscented and Brown Irish X. The waste basket blend was a...- badbriar

White Elephant Pipes
Well, I ordered a new White Elephant pipe to see what they are all about. Haven't read anything negative about them. For that matter, I've read very little about then at all! I liked the shape, length, thick walls and the weight. Looking forward to giving her a workout with a bowl of... -
