    Virginia taste

    If you have trouble with the fold and stuff method for flakes other options include rubbing out the flake, cube cut or 1 or 2 second buzz in a small food processor. All these methods are documented on the forum if you do a search.

    Mr. Brog Dezerter #13

    That is a nice pipe. I have seen Mr. Brog around and never looked into them. Maybe I will now.

    A Pipe Smoker to Remember...

    Jim was my friend’s dad. He was a great guy, friendly, successful, nice house, vacation cottage, involved in the community and smoked a pipe. The smells of his tobaccos and pipe collection called to me. My friend and I did try his pipes one weekend but it never stuck because my friend was not...

    Thoughts on Smoking Indoors

    Yes, always bought cigarettes for my parents. I am happy to smoke outdoors. My wife and two kids have asthma so it doesn’t make sense to smoke indoors around them. When the weather is good they will join me outside.

    Why Did you Start Smoking a Pipe, and Why Do You Still?

    I come from a family where tobacco use was standard. Often strong, unfiltered cigarettes. My grandfather loved to give me his Players unfiltered to smoke and my dad often rolled his own by hand.

    I Think I Ghosted My Mouth

    I liked the description and am glad you enjoyed the experience. Smoking different blends throughout the day or mixing blends can be an art or just a routine. Whatever you like, as long as you‘re enjoying it.

    Old Reviews

    I also try to identify reviewers who provide the type of information that I find useful and then focus on their reviews. Not all reviews are equal.

    Any Love For the Peterson B shapes

    Will Dunhill/White Spot Ever Go to Acrylic Stems

    Crazy Tax on Pipe Tobacco

    While visiting my sister in Florida I do buy the allowed 7 oz for myself and 7oz for my wife to bring back to Canada. I was fortunately in the hinterlands and the prices were much better than Canada.

    Newby News - English Wars

    I’m excited to have several of these recommendations in the cellar waiting to be tried. English blends do make up a large portion of my cellar. I second Old Dublin and add MM 965.

    Recommend Me a Tobacco

    I’m glad to hear that you’ve been able to get some of the suggested blends. I would also second (or third) the suggestion of MM 965 if it is available to you. It is an English I enjoy a lot.

    Ken Barnes Posts

    Thanks Jesse and Kevin. I appreciate the generosity in making his posts on Charatan and Upshall pipes easily available. It’s also a nice way to remember the generous way Ken shared his knowledge and expertise.
