    Any Chance That STG Will Bring Clan to the States?

    A menthol variant, to be titled "Cool Crisp Clan"

    What Are You Drinking? March 2025

    Had an ounce or two left of Magic Tree which I just guzzled straight from the bottle like a goddamn barbarian. I'd buy it again, but so far as "clear non-grape brandies" go, I'd rank it below kirschwasser. Mental note: Buy a bottle of kirschwasser. Haven't had that since I was home sick three...

    Possible Gold Mine?

    As someone whose value-knowledge is largely derived from browsing this forum: 1- Dunhill 2- If it looks stupid and it's old, it was probably carved by a magical Danish elf and might be worth something 3- Anything stamped from a theme park

    First World Problems

    It's on my list, having passed The Undertale Test ("If something catches a lot of hype immediately, and I know it, I avoid it because I'm hipster filth. If they're still saying good things about it years later, I'll give it another look"). Probably be a while, considering I just finished...

    First World Problems

    Anytime next is punctuated by a sound effect in Higurashi (Japanese horror novel software series I'm reading now), the auto-advancing text stops and I have to actually hit the enter key or click to advance the text instead.

    What’s Your Favorite Cocktail Recipe?

    Jack Rose. 0.5 oz Grenadine 1 oz Lime Juice 1.5 oz Calvados (I like Claque Pepin or a low-pear Domfrontais style, but mostly use Berneroy because the local stores don't carry Claque) Shake very thoroughly with ice, you want to have little ice flecks floating in your drink. Strain into martini...

    TAD Acquisitions 2025

    Insanely, Davidus had Folklore priced by the ounce, so if the cashier hadn't been alert I could've gotten this for six bucks.

    Help Me Name This Blend

    Night on Bald Mountain. Chernobog. Dancing Imp (y'know, from that bit where he conjures up those dancing fire demons in his palm).

    Help Me Name This Blend

    Hmmm...looks pretty Halloween-y in the photo provided. I've done some tabletop RPG in my time, letsee if the old DM noggin can think of anything. Proposal 1- Full name, "The Fragrant Chambers Of The Harem Of The Headless King". Headless King for short. Proposal 2- Sweet-tooth Goblin Proposal...

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

    Finishing off my HH Bold Kentucky in a bowl mixed with Gentleman Caller. I think there's potential in a DFK+Deertongue blend, but apparently no such thing exists.

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Now that the weather allows for consistent comfortable porch smoking, I'm clearing out my inventory of cigars. Finished the Olivas yesterday leaving me with only four Toscanos and another two or three of Hobson's Bad Boys. In the time since I bought my bag of Bad Boys a few months ago, Davidus...

    Perique To Be Grown And Processed In Laos

    I'm already clamoring, just very quietly. About the same volume that I clamor for a meerschaum pipe made of our inferior American meerschaum, or for cigars with kasturi filler.

    Suggestios Please....

    I endlessly sing the praises of a horn-stemmed Ropp to any novices that will hear me, because I'm a romantic sap and they appeal to me. So far as physics go, bent pipes are easier to hold by mouth alone (I'm usually a straight pipe man, but the one I started with is my go-to for smokin' 'n'...

    What Are You Drinking? March 2025

    Was running low on Swedish Punsch, so stopped at the only place I've seen to carry it. Walked out with Swedish Punsch, some beer, some mead, and a bottle of Hogsworth. Had a glass earlier, quite nice. Smooth and sweet, about 50% bourbon 50% armagnac.

    What Happened To Tsuge?

    Too blurry to read, but looks Japanese to me. 日本語です。 I also see a clean-shaven Santa Claus there on the left, hiding out during the off-season.

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    And now, a cheapo Oliva that I bought a bundle of months ago and has probably been ruined by its dehydration (I've since invested in a little humidor-thing) before being rehydrated. ...I can't be assed to buy purified water so I just splash some vodka or brandy or something onto the little...

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Toscanos Brenta, backwards because I'm a rebel.

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

    Meer billiard. Seersucker. Since finishing Umineko the other day, I'm now reading Higurashi which is technically a prequel, but in a completely different location and with no recurring characters (unless we count the voyager witches who were "playing" Higurashi, but that connection didn't exist...

    Help fixing a cracked meer shank

    It was a similar (though more advanced) crack which led me to join this forum for advice. At this size, it was already interfering with airflow. Basically doubled in size the next time I removed and reinserted the stem. At that point I shipped it off for repairs (some sort of sealant and a...

    Does Anyone Have any Info?

    All I know is that I'm impressed to see a corncob that doesn't have the name Missouri Meerschaum on it.
