    C&D Kajun Kake, Anybody Had It?

    I actually didn't care for it at all. It tasted dusty and ashy to me. No matter how slow I sipped...something in it just doesn't agree with me. I tossed it in a jar to see if anything magical happens but honestly I'm expecting to open it in a year and throw it away. Honestly it was one of...

    One More Piece of the "English" Puzzle...

    Phred in that spirit, I really enjoyed Tobacco by Ian Gately. I usually give most books away when I'm done but that one made the bookshelf.

    Peterson's Old Dublin in a Savinelli Autograph. Turkish coffee. My allergies are screwing with my taste and smell.

    What Are You Smoking? August 2013

    Peterson's Old Dublin in a Peterson System. Went for a walk with my youngest son. We picked up sticks and bugs. I love three year olds.

    What Are You Smoking? August 2013

    Lane's Leo in a recently restored Hilson rusticated poker. For a big pipe this thing is light as a feather. Coffee and watched the kids play in the yard.

    G. L. Pease Variety

    Chelsea Morning is a really nice light English. I hardly ever drink iced coffee but when I do it pairs very well with C. Morning. Haddo's Delight is also a very good tobacco that I'd like to have a few more tins of. Bready, Plumish, Stewed peppers. Westminster & Maltese Falcon sound tasty but...

    Newby Needs Help

    Welcome aboard! I've never tried Sunset but I believe that Wilshire is the same tobacco as 1Q from Lane. Both are Cavendish blends, but Sunset claims to be Virginia Cavendish and if I remember right Wilshire has black cavendish in it. Cavendish is a treatment more then a specific tobacco...

    Who Would You?

    My Grandfather. My mother swears we are exactly alike yet he died when I was little. We had to live with him for a year once and I remember him always having a pipe and making me 7-Up and Cherry juice cocktails at his basement bar. His gin, my "Shirley Temples". I'd give quite a bit to sit...

    Woodstock, 1/8 bent Dublin, Horn. Just to name a few

    That finish isn't exactly one of a kind but I've seen French pipes that have that same finish and rustication stamped "Rouge et Noir" on ebay a bit over the past year. Red & Black. Probably sent you down the wrong rabbit hole with that info, but that's the first thing I thought of. I think it's...

    New to Pipe Smoking.

    Welcome Zulu! I also enjoy Dunhill's EMP. I really opened my eyes up to "other" flavors. A bit of a gateway tobacco for me.

    Peterson Pipes Advice?

    I have 7-9 Petes? I love them but I've never bought a new one so I've never had to break any of them in really. Out of the the bunch I've got one I can't get a good smoke out of but I think the stem was incorrectly bent and affects the draw. Two of my future dream pipes are Peterson's. As far...

    Salt vs. Cotton Ball?

    Yeah I've taken some finish like that Cajun. I think salt does a better job, but I don't like the way it tastes. Might be my imagination. Because I'm lazy I just use cotton balls from the start. Otherwise I'd use salt, then cotton balls a few days later.

    Florida Hospital no Longer Hiring Smokers...Applicants to be Tested For Nicotine

    Yeah I'm labelled a high health risk by my employer if I tell them I'm a smoker and they offer tons of classes and programs to quit. Yet we have to fight for months and months to get things like new fall arrest systems and training for our guys. Supposedly there's money to get people to stop...

    TAD Virus Is Spreading

    Good for you Dur. I've been ordering light myself due to socking extras away for a vacation. Red Rapparee has been on my short list for a bit now. Have you tried it yet?
