    Is There a Cure for TAD, or Am I Doomed?

    I think you might be on to something here….. cold turkey on reading forums for almost a year or so, just happily smoking through blends and my cigars while in the back of my mind I knew I needed a restock of some bulk but put it off…. Then finding out Sutliff was no more when I couldn’t find...

    TAD Acquisitions 2025

    Just ordered…. In my frantic search over the last few weeks for more Sutliff 515 RC-1, found a vendor that had 1 in stock. This was once my blend I would smoke almost every other day and had plans to cellar deep, sadly I smoked through what I had thinking it was still available only discover...

    Is There a Cure for TAD, or Am I Doomed?

    …but what if you’re never done?! 🤔 In all seriousness, I’m blessed to be able to afford acquiring blends I intend to smoke well into the future. Once I reach retirement in a few years, I’m expecting more blends I truly enjoy to not be available or so expensive that buying tins would crush my...

    Watch City Cigar “None Of Your Business”

    Ernie makes some solid blends, haven’t had this one yet but I’ll keep it in mind on the next restock of a flake I like before it’s gone

    TAD Acquisitions 2025

    Just arrived - an amount more than I need of EMP and Standard Mixture plus a single pipe tool. An amount more than I needed, but the amount I wanted to complete the amounts I have on hand for this blend. Might be time to break into the single Dunhill versions I have left.

    Is There a Cure for TAD, or Am I Doomed?

    Absolutely right about it never getting cheaper. Granted, I’m relatively new to the pipe smoking world - but I found these order from 2020 with prices way lower. Not only that, excise taxes now. And it appears no more ordering from Estervals - always got a ton of Salty Dogs and Veermaster...

    Is There a Cure for TAD, or Am I Doomed?

    The good news is I haven’t really succumb to the double whammy of PAD. I’ve only bought one new pipe this year and my bullpen consists of around 15-20 or so

    Is There a Cure for TAD, or Am I Doomed?

    Is there an actual cure for TAD? Or am I doomed? Is there a support group? My wallet wants to know 😭 Took a long hiatus from keeping up with the forums - and in that time discovered some blends I really enjoyed and wanted to stock up on are no more. Now I found myself cellaring deeper the...

    Using a mini food chopper

    I’ve used one for some of my flakes before I was able to master a stuff and fold. I still use a grind on occasion - I found the key for me is to not keep grinding it just like a half twist to get it broken up.

    Pipe Event at Kremers in Louisville *December 6*

    I saw that on IG. Kremer’s is a nice shop I’ve stopped in when I’m in the area - if I wasn’t 2 hours away AND working I would stop go there that day. Enjoy!

    TAD Acquisitions 2025

    Day 3 of deliveries. Needed pipe cleaners so got 4 lbs of Newminster No. 201 to get free shipping. The price was right - figured I could use it with some blending experiments

    Cellar Inventory - failed seal found

    Entirely useless response. Thanks for providing value to thread.

    Cellar Inventory - failed seal found

    Update: I’ve smoked two bowls from the tin with the seal that failed. Very muted flavor and almost one dimensional. It is most likely a goner but got some hope so gonna attempt rehydration and see if it brings it back to life. If not, to the trash it goes. Night and day difference compared to...
