    Fine White Ash - Really?

    Pipe Smokers Can Be a Sentimental "Lot"

    1. It slows me down. The whole ritual of packing, lighting and slowly puffing helps calm my mind. It has been a big help with my depression. 2. Nicotine and flavor. Nicotine aids #1 and flavor keeps me coming back for more. 3. Fellowship as stated by npod. 4. Tactile. The feel of a pipe...

    Cob Collected Some "Gunk"

    Every so often I use my pocket knife to lightly ream the chamber on my cobs if I notice the cake becoming soft.

    Mac Baren's HH Balkan Blend and Cyprian Vs. Syrian

    The blends that Jim reviewed yesterday have Syrian latakia; just have to order it from Argentina. As far as I know that is it unless you find some forgotten B&M that has some old 3 Oaks Syrian or HH Vintage Syrian hanging around. Ashton's switched to Cyprian a bit over a year ago I believe.

    It has been replaced with Cyprian.

    I find Cyprian to have a stronger flavor than Syrian, of course most Syrian you encounter is over a decade old so that may have something to do with it. Syrian is softer with some musty wine flavors where as Cyprian is more campfire like.
