What is Your Best Pipe?
I always try to answer these questions, even if I don't want to pick a favorite but assuming I'm forced to. I'd have to go with my oldest pipe. Still going strong but could use a restoration. My Chacom Army 337c. A nice small pipe with a fairly good-sized bowl for it's size (being an apple... -

No worries. I've said the same about some other folks' favorite blends. To each his own. No sense smoking something you don't like.- --dante--

How to Press your Own Cake?
I'm sure this has been done to death, and I _have_ looked into it, but what are your recommendations? I've seen a noodle press used. I'm interested to hear anyones, advice/experiences doing this. I have a number of jarred tobaccos I'd love to try making into cakes.- --dante--

Got Lucky Twice Ordering a Nording from the Country Squire
Well deserved. It is rare to find businesses that actually still value customer service and retention of customers. It seems these days I only experience that with pipe and tobacco places. -
Trying to Find the Flavor
I usually smoke my bowls halfway and leave them for later (often having two half-smoked bowls standing by). For some reason, when I relight the second half of one, the flavors really stand out, at least at first. Some folks smoke this way deliberately -- look up "delayed gratification...- --dante--

Got Lucky Twice Ordering a Nording from the Country Squire
I had ordered a Nording Harmony from Country Squire and a couple ounces of Cowboy Coffee just to try it. The next day, I had a bit of buyer's remorse, thinking in hindsight I should have gotten a different Nording but was taken in by the Japanese painting theme on the Harmony. Then I got lucky... -

Desert Island Tobacco
Well, if I'm on a desert island and there happens to be a girl bearing coconuts, I must admit I would change my mind to whatever she likes! I would be overwhelmed by the sheer delight of finding my island has a girl with (or even without) coconuts!- --dante--

***What Are You Smoking, June 2022?***
Wilke Wall Street in a MM Freehand. Quite good -- my first Burley/Perique (as in just burley and perique). The Perique is a big part but it's one of those blends where it imparts more of a sweet pepper/fruit thing than spice. As with any burley, smoked gently it's exquisite! At least my...- --dante--

Haunted Bookshop Cake
Does it change the tobacco in any way? I've always been under the impression that even a cake (as opposed to a plug) melds the flavors somewhat. I could be wrong, that's why I'm asking. If nothing is different, I do still like the portability (just carry the whole cake instead of loose...- --dante--
