    Burley suggestions

    War Horse Ready Cut is a very tasty burley and I also like Peter Stokkebye's #41 Cube Cut for a nice long smoke.

    MM Stamp

    Some models have a plug in the bottom and they are stamped like my Great Danes, Generals, and Diplomats. Others are just regular cobs with no plugs like my Missouri Prides and they have stickers.

    Syrian Latakia Is Gone ... Forever

    Obviously my previous statement about the taste of HH Vintage Syrian was wrong and I offer my apologies to Per Jensen.

    Not To Offend, But, Are Pipe Smokers Thin Skinned Panty Bunchers?

    My depends have an anti-gather feature to prevent bunching. Plus I really like the rainbow ponies design; supposedly there is a unicorn design but that's just the stuff of legends...

    Looking for Latakia/tobacco direction

    Bengal Slices is a pretty distinctive latakia blend. Peter Stokkebye's Proper English is a very nice blend that is sold in bulk at a very good price per ounce. 3 Oaks Syrian for me is the best Syrian latakia blend on the market but it will soon be gone.

    Syrian Latakia Is Gone ... Forever

    I offer my opinion from smoking a lot of 3 Oaks Syrian and HH Vintage Syrian. My most recent tin of HH Vintage Syrian does not taste like pure Syrian latakia. It has the sharper taste of Cyprian latakia. This is my opinion, I don't pretend to be an expert or have secret blend knowledge. May...

    The desolation of pipe smoking

    Welcome to the forum; great post! My take on the situation is not to get hung up on the grand picture of pipe smoking's demise. I enjoy my pipes, they help with my depression. I'm lucky enough to live in the U.S. where there are a plethora of different blends at affordable prices. Yes the...

    The Collective State Of Affairs

    I'm just cellaring a few "new" (mainly some SToP selections) blends that I really like and now spend my speculative money on blends that will be here after 2018. First up, I threw some PA and Carter Hall into my latest cart.

    Beginners pipe cleaning kit?

    I use fluffy pipe cleaners after every smoke and then every 4-6 weeks I "deep" clean with vodka soaked bristle cleaners. I remove cake build up as needed with my knife.

    Packing even with top of the bowl?

    Some blends expand more than others when lit so I pack accordingly.
