    Dunhill Flake Holy Cow and Some Help!

    That's a great selection, Pipemaster; some of the best blends available. I've tried all except Navy Rolls, which is on order, and enjoy them all. Let us know what you think of them. Happy smoking!

    Dunhill Flake Holy Cow and Some Help!

    Point well taken, Roth. I haven't purchased 100 grams from the others you mentioned, nor compared their prices to Solani. I agree with you that Solani blends are worth the higher price.

    Dunhill Flake Holy Cow and Some Help!

    Rothnh, is Solani Silver really that pricey? Most other blends are in 50 gram tins. Dunhill Flake, for example, is currently selling for $10.35 at Pipes & Cigars, so 100 grams of it would cost $20.70, while a 100 gram tin of Solani Silver is selling for $17.96.

    Dunhill Flake Holy Cow and Some Help!

    Harris, you have more experience than I do in smoking flakes, so I would say my recommendation to dry the tobacco may not be the correct suggestion to follow. By the way, I bought Fribourg & Treyer based on your recommendation and am glad I did. I'm spending so much time exploring Virginias and...

    Dunhill Flake Holy Cow and Some Help!

    Pipeastronomer, I used to smoke primarily English blends, but I've been smoking a lot of flakes since returning to pipe smoking last year. Besides Dunhill Flake, other flakes I especially enjoy and would suggest as "must tries" are Escudo Navy Deluxe, Solani Silver Flake, Solani 633 and Fribourg...

    Sitters

    I never looked specifically for a sitter, but I have 9 of them in my rotation and now that you mention it, they are more convenient. Besides three pokers, most of them are billiards and Canadians and the flatness on those is so subtle that it's barely noticeable.

    According to Altadis

    After hearing so much about these blends, I look forward to being able to try them. I smoked a few tins of both eons ago, but I don't remember anything about them.

    Bent Or Straight? Your Opinions

    I only have 2 bents and a couple that are 1/8 bents. My favorite shapes are Canadians, billiards and Lovats in that order. It's just a matter of what shapes are most appealing to me. Other than the possible tendancy of some bents to gurgle and their being easier to clench because of their...
