    Another pipe dedication question.

    Sigmund, I didn't even mention the 3 10 minute bowls I had at work. I didn't realize mixing blends throughout the day would conflict my palate. The schedule I provided was just an estimation and the 30 minute intervals was only a convenient way to get my point across, but I do smoke fast and...

    Another pipe dedication question.

    Here's the enigmatic situation I'm in: 6:00 AM Irish Flake in blend-dedicated pipe -- perfect 7:30 AM EMP Match in any-blend pipe -- tasted like vanilla 5:00 PM My Mixture 965 in new meerschaum that had vanilla roll cakes last night -- first puffs were good lat flavor, the rest was vanilla 5:30...

    Another pipe dedication question.

    I may have misspoken. By crossover I mean the crossover of flavors from a ghosted pipe. One bowl of an aromatic drowned out my bowl of English blend in the next. It was not enjoyable.

    Another pipe dedication question.

    This is an old thread, but I wanted to weigh in briefly. I have never had crossover until yesterday. I recently picked up some aromatics based on recommendations here on the forums. Well, I enjoy vanilla, and I enjoy latakia, but I do not enjoy the vanilla 'oil' drowning out my expensive...

    Ghosted Meerschaum

    I just ghosted my meer. Last night I smoked vanilla roll cakes, then my mixture 965, then vanilla roll cakes. The first time on 965 was fine, but today, to my dismay, I realized that the vanilla has permeated the pores and nothing I smoke tastes unlike vanilla. I hope this remedy runs true

    Ghosted Meerschaum

    Apparently a Burley blend on repeat will rinse the repulsiveness

    Rustica to Add Oomph to Blends

    Noodle press. Coffee grinder. Less astringent leaves. Not necessarily in that order. It's a big nic hit but the flavor is a bear for me

    Shipping from Tekin

    Here are the images to back up my claims. Note that the person I spoke to is not named "Meer," it is just what I saved the # as in my phone. I'll retract my statement about the box being crappy, but it does not shut snugly nor is it leather-made. And, after zooming in on the image that I...

    Shipping from Tekin

    Ultimately, I would not buy from Meerschaumstore.com again. Their website suggests that tracking info is available, as did the vendor when we talked on private message. However, this was not the truth. The product I bought came with a crappy box that doesn't close, but it was advertised as...

    Where to Draw the Line on Cellar Size?

    I think hoarding is a good move with all the anti bacco legislation

    First Drug Store Aromatic

    We've come a long way from the classic clay. That's wild.

    Right. The world would be a better place with more Chtulhu shapes

    First Drug Store Aromatic

    That's some museum quality work. I'm curious if you have dedicated those to certain blends, moments, or places?

    First Drug Store Aromatic

    I am reintroducing humidity in the SWR with some lemon peel. Has worked great for me with other tabax without imparting flavor. Half and Half is really lovely. My goodness. What a seriously smooth smoke. These are the only readily available pipe tobaccos in my area since local tobacconists...

    First Drug Store Aromatic

    I I feel like that tin smells like Juicy Juice, or Kool Aid/Gatorade. Probably really nice on a hot summer day. Also... Look at that pipe!! Wowza!

    First Drug Store Aromatic

    What a thorough recommendation. Thank you kindly! I have heard of all of these in my Internet musings. Ive got plenty of English blends so I'll be looking forward to trying some of those out
