    Sutliff Cringle Flake 2020

    I bought a few tins. As with any new blend, managing expectations will be a crucial tool for avoiding disappointment. I expect it to be good but don't expect to hear angels sing.

    Finally Done With The Road Trips

    My commute to work is 12 miles on the highway or 10 miles straight down the beach. I usually take the highway in the morning to get there fast and then slow cruise the beach with a pipe or a beer on the way home in the afternoon. Without a doubt, driving off-road while smoking or drinking makes...

    Sasquatch...Do You Believe They Exist? Have You Encountered One?

    I have a story but don't tell it often for several reasons. Those of us that were there know what we saw.

    Apples

    Cosmic Crisp is an absolutely fantastic apple. Can't grow them yet in my state so they suck, for now. My favorite tree in the orchard is Hudson's Golden Gem. You're unlikely to see it in a store because it has ugly thick rough skin like a russet potato and comes in every weird warped shape but...

    Radice Walking Stick Limited Edition Pipe

    Wasn't there someone on here with a Castello walking stick a few years ago?

    Cellerating Some ODF

    A 1 pound box Mac Baren flake is a beautiful sight to behold. Especially Old Dark Fired. It's among my favorite smokes, though I tend to prefer the ready rubbed version. I like it fresh and have smoked it around 4 years old. Honestly, I cant tell the difference between the fresh and the slightly...

    Comparing 40th Anniversary to Carolina Red Flake

    Hallelujah!! That explains the rusty ODF tins I've been wondering about for years!

    Just the Tip Gents, Just the Tip...

    Nice. That's a proper setup. Puts my stack of plastic totes and cardboard boxes to shame.

    What Do You Think About Ken Byron Blends?

    I tried Burley Morning Pipe. I'll pass on the rest and probably not finish my sample.

    Brought Home Some New Pipes!

    Lookin' good. Laying pipe is one of my favorite weekend activities.

    Ever Take A 25 Tin Flyer On Something You Have Never Smoked?

    25 tins? No. I did buy 10 tins of McClelland 40th Anniversary without trying a sample right after the announcement that they were "closing the doors." That's over 2 pounds at 100g a tin, which is not the kind of purchase I'm likely to make ever again without trying a blend first.

    Pipe Cleaners

    Deep thought of the day: Whenever you clean a pipe you literally become a pipe cleaner.

    Oom Paul Roll Call

    Who has one and actually smokes it? No judgement here. Just curious about how many people smoke them. That is all.

    Good Va-Per Tobacco

    You're going to get a zillion answers to this question. I agree with all of the above and will add Solani 633 and Dunhill/Peterson Navy Rolls to the list.

    Cat Lovers...What's Your Favorite Kitty Litter? Dust Free, Low Tracking, Eliminates Odor...

    I guess that can make some sense for city slickers. I live on almost 2 acres out near the end of a one lane country road. The entire property is heavily fenced to keep bears out of the apple trees, deer out of the vegetable garden, and sasquatch out of the henhouse. Our cats go in and out...

    Cat Lovers...What's Your Favorite Kitty Litter? Dust Free, Low Tracking, Eliminates Odor...

    I will never understand the allure of keeping a box of cat crap in the house. Why not just let the cats outside to do their business?

    Put Your Theoretical Science Hats on Please

    What exactly is Red Virginia anyway? Leaf from a specific type of virginia tobacco seed? The result of a specific method of processing virginia leaf? Something else?
