    AND Meerschaum

    Not having personal experience with this Seller, I can only report the findings of others. The results are mixed. One group says that the Pipes are low quality, while the other group says that they are a value for the $$. My suggestion would be to establish dialogue with the Seller. Are...

    English Blends

    I think that Mason has the right approach. For someone that is new to English blends & mixtures, it would be good to start with some of those of lighter character. Dunhill Early Morning Pipe has long been regarded as a good introduction. Dunhill London mixture is more of an oriental blend...

    I confess I know nothing

    The realization that there is much to be learned is the first indication that indeed, something has been learned after all.

    Another Day On The Road

    Time for a well earned rest indeed... Sometimes, even when you win, you wind up loosing something. Bless their little pointy heads. At times like this it's not easy to remind yourself that we need 'em all to make the story complete. Time to treat yourself to some rest and quality Pipe time.

    When do you replace a corn cob?

    Yuri66 writes: I just dug out an old (MM) cob that is 30+ years old that I inherited. Upon inspection I noticed that the exterior of the bowl has cracks all through it and I do not know if they go all the way through. Now the fear I have is that I will pack a bowl light a fire in it and the...

    Good afternoon. It's Peter Heinrich's No 30, a blend to take with you when bear hunting in winter, in the Blowfish. Best to all. http://pipesmagazine.com/members/fred/album/picture/536

    When do you replace a corn cob?

    I've replaced Cobs that I lost or caught on fire. They can be reamed, but this is not required. A Cob will caramelize from the heat of the smoke and don't really form much of a cake. They seem to thrive on neglect and don't ghost as easily as other Pipes. The cracks that form on the...

    Cigar leaf blend suggestions

    Robert Lewis 123 Mixture and James Fox's The Banker's Mixture are both excellent Cigar leaf blends that I enjoy and cellar. Another preference of mine is to add Cigar leaf to blends for both the added flavor, and a bit of moderation for rough tobaccos. I like Maduro and get it from C&D...

    Tobacco Storage

    A lot of good information has already been posted in this thread. One point does deserve mention. Most of us re-use the jars we cellar blends in. Before putting more tobacco into a jar that has contained a blend in storage, wash the jar - even if you are putting a new issue of the same...
