    Pairing Tobacco and Drink

    Man I have to admit, the cold apple cider with Va/per sounds like an outstanding combo. Can't wait to try it. Problem is trying to find cider. Seems to only be around in the fall.

    Smoking in Bedroom With Carpet? - Given an Ultimatum!

    depends on how serious you are. Install a vent fan and you will have no more problems and no need of smelly candles to cover up the smoke which just leaves you smelling like smelly candles and smoke. Even a cheap bath fan will work. Install it in the ceiling and vent it outside. just put a...

    Pairing Tobacco and Drink

    I do enjoy good whisky with a pipe, but I also love coffee, tea, iced jasmine tea with honey and bit of lemon and some of the more artisan sodas or high quality mixers like Fentimans ginger beer, curiosity cola, and dandelion and burdock soda. They are not super carbonated and geared towards...

    Intimidated by Flake

    Weather I rub out, fold and stuff, tear into strips, cut into cubes etc, I always take one little pinch and leave it out till its bone dry and rub it into dry dust for the top of the bowl to get the whole thing going nice and even. I do keep seperate jars of dry dust for some of my main stay...

    Smoking Less

    I came to the same realization years ago and went from smoking 3 bowls a day to once a week and then to once a day and now I'm at about 4 or five times a week. I just get tired of anyone thing that I do too much of. moderation is a wonderful thing.

    Small Bowl Pipe Recommendation?

    I have to agree that Stanwell Featherweights are fantastic little short smoke pipes. I use mine for short smokes and particularly stout tobaccos.

    Those smokes are the things this obsession is made of.

    Reincarnation ,What do You Think?

    The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends … I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time and what do you get at the end of it? Death! I mean, what’s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards: You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you move to an old...

    What's Your Favorite Frog Morton Blend?

    Always been partial to the original myself. The others are good, but never stuck with me like the original. Used to have a Sasieni 4 dot billiard that was born to smoke Frog Morton.

    Ordered Grousemoor and FVF for First Time

    FVF is for the lover of espresso, huge red wines, maduro cigars, dark chocolate and the like. It is deep and rich and just s fantastic smoke. Sip it very slowly or you will miss all that it has to offer. Grousemoor is unlike any aromatic you will ever smoke. Not cased in a cloying syrupy...

    Laurel Heights My Experiance is This Normal?

    It's not just you. I enjoy Laurel Heights, but I have to admit that something in it can have a tendency to irritate the back of my throat. Doesn't seem to bite, but it does put a tickle in the back of my throat. It's a once in a while tobacco for me but when I want it, nothing else will do...

    Marlin Flake, Howl'in @ the Moon/Good Stuff

    I can't agree more. Thanks to mrenglish, I have a very hefty stash of vintage Marlin Flake from 2000, 2001 and 2004. The 2000 is very good, haven't tried the 2001 yet, but the 2004 is blow your friggin' socks off good. So rich you can almost chew it as you smoke it. I was seduced by Marlin...

    Did EMP change or did I change?

    I never did get around to smoking Early Morning Pipe back in the Murray days. I was, on the other hand, a faithful smoker of Night Cap, London Mixture, My Mixture 965, Light Flake, Durbar and Three Year Matured during the Murray years. I do like the newest version of Early Morning Pipe, and I...

    Having Some Beginner Troubles

    pinch test, pack till tight but springy, smoke slow, tamp often with no more force than what gravity provides and you are definitely improving your odds of having a good smoke. It does take a while to master this art. My smokes are all good at this point but I still have the occasional sub par...
