    SmokingPipes Site Redesign

    I keep thinking that it’s just a matter of getting used to the new design but so far that hasn’t happened. I’m not a fan. I prefer the old site design. It’s not the end of the world but It is slightly annoying.

    SmokingPipes Site Redesign

    Not a fan of the changes so far but I will get used to it I guess. When they change it again down the road I’m sure I will say I wish they hadn’t then too. No big deal.

    Mellowest Unflavored Burley Blends?

    Try it if you can. When I’ve over smoked and my mouth is a little fatigued Semois is my go to. It’s just smooth to me. Noninvasive if that makes sense. Don’t get me wrong, it has some strength, but It’s still an easy going smoke to me. Have you tried the email waiting list on SP.com?

    The Aroma of the Shop

    I absolutely love that aroma too! I may work at my local B&M when I retire. They’ve already said no problem. That’s at least a couple years down the road so I’m contemplating maybe one night a week now for the fun of It. Paid in tobacco maybe!

    Elizabethan Match

    Thanks! That sounds interesting. What alcohol would you recommend and how long should it ‘percolate’ before smoking?

    Elizabethan Match

    Yes, the Peterson version. I have never had Dunhill’s or Murray’s Elizabethan Mixture. I wish there was a bulk version that was a close match to the current Elizabethan but as you said, there isn’t. At least that I have found. That’s what has me trying my hand at home mixing. No problem if I’m...

    Elizabethan Match

    I’m a big fan of Elizabethan Mixture too. I will continue to stock up on it. I also love saving money like everyone else and for me, that means bulk tobacco. I shop almost exclusively with SP.com and favor ribbon cuts. SP.com doesn’t offer a lot of options within those parameters. Victorian...
