    "Where's Walnut?"

    Thanks again. I checked JR's site and it looks like it's available. Nice deal on the shipping too! :puffy:

    Has Anyone Had Iwan Ries Kings Oriental Blend (clove flavored)

    I have smoked it. If you like cloves you will like this. The clove topping is quite obvious when you poke your nose in the pouch. Iwan Ries calls this a British Blend but I would call it more of an aromatic with barely a whiff of Latakia or Orientals. The cut is a rough shag with a few chunks...

    Opium Aromatic? Edit: (Perfume) L.

    @ baron :laughat: "smells like someone set a dirty diaper on fire". LOL! I once had a girlfriend that swore by that godawful perfume. Hence the past tense...

    What are You Smoking? November, 2012

    A mashup of Middleton's Apple and Middleton's Cherry Blend in the Nording 925. Nice and comforting on a cloudy grey Fall day in the desert. :puffy:

    "Where's Walnut?"

    Thanks, guys. I figured it was something along those lines. I guess it's a good problem to have that these old blends got a new lease on life thanks to the Internet. I'll just sit tight and hope for the best. :puffy:

    "Where's Walnut?"

    Anybody have information on the shortage/supply of Middleton's Walnut Pipe Tobacco? I placed an order and was informed that this was on back order and a delivery date couldn't be determined. I checked several sites and it is pretty much Out of Stock wherever I look. Plenty of Prince Albert...

    Buffalo Wild Wings Rocks

    I'll be there at the pipe show. Hope to see you there. Maybe we could hook up for a smoke in the lounge. :puffy:

    Buffalo Wild Wings Rocks

    Which BWW were you at? I'm in Vegas and always on the hunt for pipe friendly locations. I hang out out at the Tenaya Creek Brewery quite often and they too are cool with the briar.

    First pipe craft attempt

    Nice pipe, zanthal! I'm a fan of the saddle bit style. Enjoy.

    LoTR tobaccos

    I believe PS Nougat was the weed that was on hand during the filming of LOTR. Probably not my choice but a nice aromatic never the less. Saurumon always seemed like a 1792 Flake kind of fellow. Frodo and the other hobbits, perhaps Orlik Slices, Dwarves have to be smokey Latakia and Gandalf...

    What are You Smoking? October, 2012

    Been away for a while from the forum because work's been busy. That's a good thing right? Lot's of new posters I see and that's a good thing too, right? Anyways, celebrating a Steelers squeaker on the desert back porch with Voodoo Queen in the GBD Rockroot. Fall is on the way in Las Vegas...

    What Are You Smoking?(August 2012)

    Been away for a little while but I'm back. Returned from a little vacation down in San Diego with a new pipe from Racine & Laramie (a must see for any pipesters in SD). Now loaded and smoldering with Troost Special Cavendish. It's not Troost Slices but it will do. :puffy:

    Best tobacco experience

    Once upon a time, ducking into a roadside smokeshop/giftshop on the AZ/NM border and finding a shelf in the back groaning with Murray Dunhill tins and Edgeworth Slices. Sort of a Vallhalla moment for me.

    ***What are You Smoking?*** (July 2012)

    Red skies tonight in the desert. Sutliff Bachannalia in the Nording. Cicadas still buzzing out back. :puffy:

    ***What are You Smoking?*** (July 2012)

    SWR in the BC Montmartre. Cicadas are in full throat on the desert back porch. The monsoon is trying to make reappearance.

    ***What are You Smoking?*** (July 2012)

    PS Proper English on a proper soggy evening in the desert. :puffy:

    ***What are You Smoking?*** (July 2012)

    Voodoo Queen in the Savinelli. :puffy: Monsoon is bearing down on the hot, humid desert this evening.

    R.I.P Andy Griffith

    hobie1dog: They interviewed Ron Howard on CBS News This Morning. He was very kind and sentimental towards Mr. Griffith. It seems they had a wonderful relationship. They also interviewed Randy Travis and he had nothing but praise for Andy Griffith. Good stuff. It's probably on the CBS...
