    Looking for Similarities

    Is it? If it is it’s more expensive on an order of cents. It’s about $0.27/gram. The average C&D tin (at 56.6 grams) is about $0.24/gram. The only reason I even mention it is, for me, that’s not enough of a price difference to make me not smoke what I love and want to smoke. Obviously we’re...

    Honest Answers Only: How Long Do You Leave a Tin Open?

    I jar most tinned blends immediately upon opening with the exception of Cornell and Diehl products. For reasons I don’t understand, their blends seem to need a little decanting before jarring. I’ll let an open C&D tin sit for a couple days before jarring it. I’ll keep the lid on but not sealed...

    Purchase amount with frequency of smoke

    As has been said probably hundreds of times on this forum, tobacco will never be as a cheap, easy to procure and plentiful as it is now. Do you plan on being a pipe smoker for the rest of your life? Do you have space to store tobacco? Do you have the money to buy it? If you said “yes” to...

    Did You Lose Your Pipe ?

    I suspect you’re joking but if you’re not, why would he do that? I think this is as real and good natured as it appears.

    The Voice of Gawith Hoggarth

    Pardon me sir but, respectfully, both of those songs are in The Song Remains The Same movie and on the 2007 version of the soundtrack. I believe that’s what you were referencing with your graphic on the previous page. ☮️ ❤️

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

    I can hardly believe my luck! This Ropp J16 was $50 on shmoking pipes dot com. For its first smoke, I chose Watch City Simply Cavendish.

    Wall of Shame - Seller's Remorse

    Are you going to be ok? Do you need a tissue or a hug? Buck up, big guy! Turn that frown upside down. 😃

    Capstan Blue

    True but the world is a much different place now than it was even 8 years ago.

    This makes it sound as though STG gives a shit about what the pipe tobacco they make and sell tastes like.

    Smoking Sessions - Splitting up a bowl

    Try it for yourself. As you can see, there are many takes but your experience is all that matters. In my opinion, the only way to do anything “wrong” in pipe smoking is to do something YOU don’t enjoy. For me, I’ll set a pipe down and come back to it multiple days later and it’s totally fine...

    Tender Box

    Very cool. Maybe half of why I got into pipe smoking was because of a Tinder Box in the mall in my home town. I’ll never forget that aroma. Edit: Upon further research I learned that the original store closed in 2017. Too bad.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Looks GREAT! I’m a fool for missing this drop. Oh well. Maybe next time.

    Thoughts On Oil Changes

    I use what my owner’s manual tells me to use and that’s 0w 20 fully synthetic. It’s not even a question for me. I’m not a mechanic.

    Buying a Whole Cellar From a Neighbor?

    Great points. I’m convinced. It’s probably a scam.

    Buying a Whole Cellar From a Neighbor?

    Occam’s Razor: Seller doesn’t know what they have and just wants it gone. OP searches “pipe tobacco information” and gets this forum. OP proceeds to make an account purely to ask a question for guidance. OP asks question, gets answer, makes decision and moves on with life. The End
