    Mail Call!

    To my palate, it is a real treat. Another forum member sent me a few samples last summer, one of which was Red Rapparee. As of that time, the only English I'd had was EMP, which to my taste was bland and cigarettey (I've never smoked a cigarette, but it smelled like that to me). I looked at...

    I acquired 3 or 4 flakes of FVF last week, and I'm looking forward to trying it, to see whether it will be worth getting more when (if) it ever is in stock again. Normally I'd wait until warmer weather for a VA flake, but I'll make an exception for this one. As for Hal, yesterday's bowl...

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2025?***

    Hal O’ The Wynd in the GBD Stacked Speciale Dublin, with some Mug root beer. One year ago this evening my dad died. This evening I called my step mother to see how she was doing, and we enjoyed some reminiscing. Afterward, I had some Bald Headed Teacher in a Falcon. I had held off on trying...

    Welcome from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and sympathies on tobacco prices up there ;) I'm pretty new to the pipe world myself, and have been enjoying the process of discovering the wide range of flavors and blends out there. Currently obsessed with Hal O' The Wynd: it's so tasty!

    How a Newbie Conquered Tongue Bite

    @rakovsky suggested a Falcon or Peterson System pipe. I've never tried a Peterson, but a Falcon with a dry ring makes you pretty much immune to tongue bite, in my experience. A few times when stressed, I've really chugged on the pipe, and never got a bite (even with aromatics). But switching...

    La Brumeuse in a Falcon, with a wind cap (not shown) to prevent it from burning up within 15 seconds Winter storm is on the way and it’s very windy out.

    Lord Methley’s in a Falcon Dover for a rare (for me) morning pipe. Very quiet and peaceful experience, except for the ravens croaking and the red squirrels scolding me.

    Cigar TAD 2025

    cigarplace.biz sent me a $10 coupon for my birthday, and I had already planned how I was going to use it: A fiver of Hispaniolas to build up the stash, and two of the Gran Habano CT “lunch break”, because weather hasn’t been friendly to full size cigars.
