    Solani Silver Flake.

    When I smoked the stuff fairly young I thought there was a nice sweetness in the blend with some nutty spicy dfk, plus a nice nicotine punch. So I bought like 3 pounds in 2015-2016. Since then I never got that sweetness back. I wrote about it recently and tried it again this week. It’s a damn...

    What's Your Profession?

    Felt I needed to update my profession… I’m an architect and I am now a full time teacher to buildings plans drafters. What’s more important is that I have now 2 months off paid in the summer to smoke my pipe ;)

    Jarring 2 oz Of Flake

    So I’m planning on jarring 2oz of capstan flakes for long term aging (10-20 years). Since I only want to jar 2 oz of flakes at a time should I cram it in 4oz jelly jars thus destroying some flakes or jar it in 8 oz jar with a bit too much air space? I’m wondering if the flakes will dry up in...

    Aged Solani Silver Flake Not The Same

    Yeah sounds about right! To me it was kind of Va forward with a nice spicy nutty kick from the Kentucky. Now it seems more like a Kentucky forward blend to me that’s what I don’t understand...

    Aged Solani Silver Flake Not The Same

    Have you noticed that? If I remember correctly you’re a fan too. I thought it was maybe a batch from the same year but tried different vintage and it was about the same... I’m just wondering if I thought it was sweet at first but it was not that sweet or maybe it was the new pipe bowl coating I...

    Aged Solani Silver Flake Not The Same

    No I but have you noticed that the sweetness had faded a bit or it get sweeter with age? Do you find that blend sweet in the first place?

    Aged Solani Silver Flake Not The Same

    So silver flake was one of the first blends that I liked a lot when I first started smoking a pipe. I really enjoyed the fact that it had a nice sweetness balanced by the spicy, nutty Kentucky. I then cellared about 3 pounds in 2015-2016. Since then, each jar I opened haven’t tasted the same. I...

    Canadian Carver Corner

    Then you should really add Blatter and Blatter to your list! One of the oldest pipe maker around, since 1907. Their website is a bit old school and you need to call to order a pipe but they make good classically shaped pipes. Really well made and Really cheap for the quality you get!

    Addicted to Revor plug

    Anyone find it’s a ghosting blend? I always smoke it in the same pipe that got dedicated to it by default. I’m always tempted to try it in another pipe but always afraid it will ghost the shit out of it...

    Which Blend Do You Wish You Bought More Of Before It Disappeared?

    To my knowledge it’s not out of production. I think it’s synjeco that posted that on their website a while ago but it’s still available everywhere in england...what do you mean by former form? They changed the recipe? I bought like a pound and a half in the last year ant it seems all the same...

    Addicted to Revor plug

    Been craving it for the last couple of weeks. That stuff is addictive, I feel the more I smoke it, the more I crave it. Never really happened with other tobacco, as I usually like to switch blends at each smoke. Revor is also a perfect after dinner smoke. Sad it’s pricey and hard to come by tho...
