    Don't you love when this happens?

    I walked into the local Davidus a few weeks ago and was immediately waved over by a clerk who slid a tin of Standard Tobacco era War Horse over the counter for me to inspect. Apparently it had been sitting unsold at another location for years and the manager had it transferred to his shop...

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

    Last bowl of Sillem's Green because I've had this tin for a couple years and haven't been smoking it. So I'm unloading it onto a new guy who likes Aros.

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

    War Horse, Altinok I use for everything (which needs a cleaning, can't get my index finger to the bottom of the bowl anymore).

    Are There Any Anime Fans Here?

    Near a decade ago (and now I feel old), when it was a shiny new series, I watched Princess Principal like a dozen times in the span of a year. Steampunk spy thriller. Hearty recommend. Follows Team White Pigeon, an espionage team for the Albion Commonwealth based out of a prestigious school for...

    Old Durham Tobacco

    Bull Durham basically invented marketing - before them there was a skepticism toward big ad campaigns ("There's no way print ads in all these magazines and posters on every corner will generate enough sales to pay for themselves!"), and they had a rewards program where you could send in a giant...

    🌟 🎄 🎅 The UnOfficial Official 2025 PM Secret Santa Thread 🎅 🎄 🌟

    @Goblin_Walrus has solicited me for a vouch, and I shall provide. Goblin_Walrus is a good dude, whose generosity-by-mail I have personally experienced. Also I know where he lives, and I swear to drive to Texas and kick him in the shins if necessary.

    War Horse Bar is a winner!

    Where's my crying face reaction emoji? Someone hand me a tissue. Thank you for your words :(

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

    Pipe: Altinok Meerschaum billiard, which I've de-caked a little with the power of spit, a brush-thing, and rotating my finger in the chamber. May or may not have removed a tiny bit of pipe from the rim with a thumbnail. Tobacco: War Horse Drink: Community decaf in a mug, and Schlenkerla Oak...

    Fall / Halloween 2025!

    Cornell & Diehl has a Lovecraft-themed line. I recommend the Mad Fiddler Flake especially.

    Maryland pipe clubs?

    Sean, from Marriottsville. Don't know of any formal clubs. The Davidus Cigars in Eldersburg has a pipe night on Tuesday every week (I've never attended), and the Ellicott City location has been getting more pipe-traffic lately so perhaps they'll start having pipe night too in a few months. I'm...

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

    Woke up to an unscheduled day off (weather too gross for hayrides, apparently). After breakfast and a few hours of videogames (replaying the Mass Effect trilogy) I relocated to the local cigar shop. Currently smoking a bowl of Pipe Force V, which was preceded by Brothers In Arms.

    Aromatics are Not for the Pipe-Smoker

    Pics or it didn't happen.

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

    I've designated my jar of Half and Half (given a few coffee beans months ago for flavoring, I hope) and my tin of Sillem's Green as my current "Get those containers empty dammit!" projects. So: Sillem's in the meer, H&H in the Merchant Service, alternating until I leave the cigar lounge in...

    Need Help Reducing The Size Of My First Tobacco Purchase

    I'd consider trimming down to one Aromatic (1-Q because it's allegedly the best seller in the US, or Cult Blood Red Moon because I know from personal experience that it's solid. Or if you prefer grapes to cherries - Visions of Celephais) for a pouch of Five Brothers.

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

    Finishing my tin of EGR in the Altinok.

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Island Jim San Andres, no photo. I observed from the few notes I took on the contents of the Monster Smash set that I liked the San Andres wrappers best.

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

    Decided to move my long-neglected Half and Half out of the big glass jar on my pipe rack and into some smaller jars to be smoked at the lounge. A few months ago I dropped a couple coffee beans in with them, and I think they've given it a little more flavor. Couple bowls of that in the Merchant...

    Skippy's Blend of the Week

    "Maybe it isn't the Burley that doesn't agree with me, maybe it's the curse that was put on the ancestors of both Cornell AND Diehl in the 1640s... Time to smoke some Burley!" Hey, Five Brothers is good stuff.

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

    Continuing the break-in of the latest addition to my stable. Mad Fiddler Flake (and a touch of the "packaging" from a Leaf By Oscar cigar), in this beaut from Merchant Service. Wanted one since last September, jumped on it when I got the email that they'd restocked. Which has also confirmed my...

    Show Off Your Meerschaum Pipes Here!

    A few weeks ago I was wondering, "Wait, how long have I been here?" and rather than check the date of my account creation like a clever person would do, I said "Ah, I recall one of my first posts was showing off my meer. When did I do that? ...Almost exactly two years ago?" So I set a reminder...
