    Love at First Light, McClellend Dark Star

    Thanks linkdead and Andrew! I followed the same packing today, but let it dry closer to an hour. Loaded it up in my Tsuge Mizki Dublin. I have never tasted a VA so sweet and up to this point I've enjoyed VA's but never understood the sweetness. After it settled down it was like having a hard...

    My Cellar Plan

    Homeatsea I agree Marlin Flake is delicious and will most likely be cellared in quantity too. The FVF that I had was bulk from a B&M and I now have one tin in the cellar aging. I really need some to smoke now though haha

    Love at First Light, McClellend Dark Star

    I have a 100g tin of St. James Woods aging. The Dark Star was tinned '06 IIRC, so it had a good amount of age on it and smells amazing in the tin. I'd like to try the Blackwoods too as I've heard great things. I say pop it Roth and enjoy!

    Love at First Light, McClellend Dark Star

    A few weeks back I opened a tin of Dark Star generously gifted to me by Bob (Rmbittner). I let it sit for aalmost three weeks while I finished my tin of ODF. Today I was looking for something different to smoke and decided it was time to try it. I was a little nervous it would be a hassle...

    Esoterica Stonehaven

    I think Stonehaven is a good smoke. I'm honestly still trying to figure it out, which is a good thing. I enjoy the flavors and I would buy a bag around the $35 price, but I personally wouldn't chase it. I have many other blends that I enjoy as much and definitely more.

    The Kaywoodie is a standard tenon. The WDC is a push tenon. The stem is a larger inside diameter and slips onto an aluminum tenon in the mortise.

    Your Burial Pipe and Blend

    If I don't have a son or relative that would appreciate and smoke my pipes. Then I would be buried with my Tsuge that was my first Christmas gift from my daughter. I would also want all my tobacco with me, gotta have choices.

    Antique Mall PAD Today!

    Thanks Chris and gnat! The Kaywoodie is a keeper for sure. It's unique enough to keep in the collection. I may sell the WDC when it's done to fund some more Estate PAD. I think i would regret getting rid of the Kaywoodie even though I haven't smoked it yet. Its surprisingly my smallest bowl...

    Antique Mall PAD Today!

    Here is the progress on the WDC. Process so far: Wipe exterior with damp paper towels. Soak stem overnight in oxyclean dish detergent (not the machine kind). Used a dremel sanding disk to begin reaming (not happy with that and have to figure out how to ream without a reamer). Used tons of...

    The Double Comfort refers to the stem as it steps into a thinner profile about half way to the button. The are very flat stems too which is nice for clenching.

    A Long Overdue Thank You to Cigrmaster!

    Honestly at this point I have 14 pipes and 5 of which came as acts of kindness from members here. I've never met more generous people in my life and I know when I'm in a better position in life I will do the same for members of this great community. The great people here are what make me...
