A very handsome bit o' briar! Interesting to think that as the northern hemisphere is heading into early summer, our antipodean brethren are in their late autumn months.- marlinspike

Anyone Else Prefer Wooden Matches Over A Lighter.
Where do you order your tobacco? A number of retailers will often include some cedar spills to go along with your order (particularly those who also sell cigars).- marlinspike

Anyone Else Prefer Wooden Matches Over A Lighter.
Yep, that's the problem I run into all the time in my area of the Pacific Northwest. The frequent wind means temps are usually held down, but it makes lighting up a trickier proposition. Every once in a while, I get to use my gradually dwindling stock of cedar matches outside.- marlinspike

Anyone Else Prefer Wooden Matches Over A Lighter.
Just for aesthetic experience alone, I love to use a cedar spill or a cedar match - the smell alone is a lovely complement to the tobacco. Since I smoke outside exclusively, I don't often do that.- marlinspike

Cob Over Briar
An unfinished, unlacquered cob is a mighty fine smoking instrument. I've said it before, there are times I've kicked myself for buying a (relatively) pricey briar pipe that was only a mediocre smoking experience, and wished I had spent about $5-12 on a Missouri Pride or a MM Diplomat apple...- marlinspike

I found Wilke's Cherry Cavendish so pleasant last night, I had another bowlful, in the same Volkan pipe. Looks like I've found a simple, nicely-smoking aromatic I can live with!- marlinspike

A bowlful of Wilke's Cherry Cavendish. I've gotten to the point of mostly disdaining so many aromatics, but this one seems to work well. Burns evenly without a trace of bite, no sogginess, no need to leave it out to dry for long - simple, pleasant, light cherry/chocolate tastes in the mouth...- marlinspike
