    First Blend You "Got" (or: The Art of Opening Doors)

    When I was a kid, we had a Tinderbox close to us and my dad used to smoke North Sea. Whenever my Mom went by it in the mall she always used to get him 4 oz. It always smelled fantastic.

    The Countries I Lack

    MSO I think you left out Poland & Africa. Mr. Brog & Kiko being the two that come to mind. I can't find an Australian factory pipe company oddly enough. My collection is all over the place. I have a soft spot for stray unloved things. Pipes and dogs especially.

    I Had To Add A New Shelf To The Cellar!

    Very nice! All my jars just have a blend initials and a date written on the bottom in marker. Soon I'm going to have to be knocking her 12482498248 cans off the pantry shelves so I can get some more space.

    First Blend You "Got" (or: The Art of Opening Doors)

    Haddos Delight. It made me realize how a tobacco can develop and change based on HOW you smoke it. I haven't even smoked it since that first tin but it really taught me how a tobacco's taste and aroma can be layered

    Capt. Black Dark

    Heh. I order my Dad his Captain Black and I always snag a pouch or two. I found and old pouch that had slipped back behind my work truck seat MONTHS ago...it was still moist.

    Cleaning Cobs

    I just use a pipe nail to clean out the tobacco. Blow through the stem. Reload. All clean and ready to go. Skapunk that's a good tip about the alcohol. My wife steals my stem brushes all the time. I find them in the dish drainer. Hope she isn't cleaning the toilet with them.

    interesting meerschaum pipe

    I didn't mean to sound snippy, btw. I was on my tablet and I'm not fond of typing on it unless I've got my bluetooth keyboard. The main reason why I suggested a Baki is that the pipe you linked, looked like a $100 dollar pipe due to the lack of accents & signature, generic stem, and IMO poor...

    Oriental's and VaPerOr's Experiences

    Excellent info. Thanks everyone, I really do appreciate the insights. These forums and tobaccoreviews.com really help in navigating a huge sea of tins and leaf. I like Red Rapparee. It took me a bit to settle into, however. I found air pocketing it and slowing down a bit on it really...
