    How Do You Like Your Steak?

    As long as I'm left enough bloody juice for that inch thick fresh sliced heavily buttered bread to mop up I'm a happy man!

    What's your favourite 3rd of the bowl?

    If you split the bowl into 3 as its smoked, what's your favourite third? Mine in the last 3rd. I like the kind of musky flavour. So much so I sip sip sip away to the end. Possibly a tobacco hand thing also, I've not sampled enough to know, but I also like the cigar type bitterness the final...

    Don't get ripped off with the price of tobacco jars.

    Unless of course you like paying over the odds lol I have just sourced some very nice glass jars with air tight locks for £1.99 each. I'd say they will easily hold 500grams and they the sort used for pickles. I'm not sure if site rules allow me to share the shop name. If someone could...

    What Would You Do?

    Cajundad. The Carey's arrived this morning and I've tried the wild cherry 2027. Now this is their aromatics range but tbh it was not particularly aromatic. I only have Peterson holiday season 2012 as a comparison tho, which I love! It is however imo a nice smoke. Initially sharp and Smokey but...

    Women Pipe Smokers

    I often have this conversation with my fishing buddies. How strange bluestar pipes and fishing! Imo their response is the reason why women stay away from male dominated environments. The whole "cor yeah a good looking girl to look at while fishing" it would put me off too! It's great when I do...

    What Would You Do?

    I'll try my best cajundad. Give me a couple of days because I'm not even a week old pipe smoker so probably the best I'll be able to offer is "that was nice" or "better than the other" . Like now. I've been enjoying st Bruno. EMP is smoother. Feels like more nicotine and burns better. The...

    What Would You Do?

    So in the morning I have quite a variety of tobacco turning up - emp, peterson deluxe, conisoir, Irish oak and festive 2012. Carey's aromatic sampler (5gs of 9 different blends). What is the best thing for me to do. Obviously I would like to open each and have a good smell of them but logic...

    Materials Pipes are Made With

    Afternoon chaps. So I'm looking thru Amazon UK site at pipes and there are pipes that are described as durable make. Has anyone had any experience with this "material"?

    Can Smoking Make Me Sick?

    I've gone from smoking 20 rollies minimum in a day to 3 pipes with no rollies so don't think it's that. Thank god cos I'm really enjoying my pipes! Must just have a bug.

    Can Smoking Make Me Sick?

    Guys sorry this is probably the most uninteresting post ever. Can pipes smoking upset your stomach? That's probably the most polite least gross way I could ask! Edit: Capitalized title, L.
