    SPC Christmas Spirit

    They are on sale now at Smoking Pipes. Kind of hard to justify for 10 dollars a oz, but I did end up getting one tin just to try.

    The (Un)Official PipesMagazine Secret Santa Thread 2022!

    Quick question so I’m not leaving a lump of coal in a otherwise deserving pipe smokers stockings… the blend styles listed next to their names is what they prefer, correct? I haven’t been able to follow along this thread too closely

    Your "No Fuss/Go To" Tobacco?

    Not my favorite by any means, but no fuss- go to, scoop it straight out of the container with whatever pipe I’m using would be Granger. I find myself reaching for it more and more when I don’t want to take the time with drying a flake or cutting off a piece of plug. Plus, it’s readily available...

    SPC Christmas Spirit

    Strange to have a different label for it.. hope they at least added a few of Santa’s whiskers and a candy cane to it then to justify the “limited” label 😂

    SPC Christmas Spirit

    I was browsing the photos of the recent Las Vegas pipe show and ran across one of Seattle Pipe Club offerings and could faintly see a tin I’ve never seen before, SPC Christmas Spirit. Anyone have information on this tin such as blend type and availability?

    Freshly Opened 4 Year Old Tin of Squadron Leader

    Great stuff. I have a few in my cellar I’d like to revisit one of these days when I get a hankering for English blends again. Mine are probably around the same age by now

    Cringle Flake 2022 Dec 3rd

    I already have my lawn chair out in the virtual line holding my spot 😂 CF Is one of the limited blends I look forward to each year. Always snag several and end up gifting a few to friends that smoke pipes

    Watch City Rouxgaroux next week !

    Missed the boat on this one, thankfully I still have 8 oz left of the pound I bought earlier this year to tide me over until the next release. Was hoping to get another batch to smoke fresh to let my remaining get some more age on it. :confused:

    Recent TAD Pick-Ups

    Bit the bullet with the following order. I believe this is my third year now smoking a pipe and have yet to have any of the Rattray blends figured I’d buy some to smoke now and a extra tin of the ones that sounds like I would like to get a little bit of age and revisit. Also picked up a few...

    Cats & Pipes

    Boomer and Chipotle( gray and white) I found Chipotle temporarily living in a bush over a year ago when I was still doing patrol work. I was on my lunch break eating a burrito from Chipotle. Gave him a piece of chicken and he jumped in my cruiser and never left. Poor guy was skin and bones with...

    Salt or Sugar?

    FWIW, each tin I’ve smoked of RO Acadian VaPer and Acadian Gold has had the tobacco sticking to the paper insert like that and a rough texture to the paper. I assumed it was because of the process used to make the RO Acadian series. But they all smoked wonderful and wish I had more tins than...

    GH&Co. 500g Bags

    I would like the idea of cellaring as is for ocd display purposes. I did that in the beginning with my esoterica bags. However, I read too many pinhole stories and ended up sealing the bags in food saver bags. I’ll eventually get around to getting mylar. Those GH bags do seem like it would last...

    Great eyes! After looking it over again in again, I see it now! Thanks for solving the mystery, now I can tell my pops the make of this pipe he bought over 40 years ago.

    Who Doesn't Enjoy Plum Pudding?

    I went through several cans, and even more cans of Mississippi River a few years ago when I started piping. I went on a buying spree and have a few pounds of each cellared away. They only see the light of day in the fall now and even then I’ll smoke just a couple of ounces. My tastes have...

    Unknown pipe

    Best I can do. The majority of his pipes he gave me were made by Wilbur Swink in Franklin, Ohio so I was really just curious on this one.

    Unknown pipe

    I’ll see if I can get some good lighting on it. Yeah I could tell that right away, my dad was always biting his stems while smoking his Tinderbox Blend 1 and Blend 33 before he gave it up. ? I have another one he salvaged while working in the coke plant at the steel mill that fell in to heated...
