    Storing Italian Dry Cigars

    I picked up some Italian dry cigars and I see conflicting reports on humidifying them vs not. I’m thinking about splitting the difference and using a dedicated small tupperdor with a Boveda 49% 320 gram packet and just chucking the little cardboard 5 packs in there. Is there any reason to...

    2018 HH Old Dark Fired in a 2014 Ashton XXX Brindle prince, which is stamped “Corps 30th” and also stamped as a pebble grain, for whatever reason.

    2019 Ennerdale Flake in a custom cob I got on Etsy, and had EMC Custom Cobs make a new stem for. The stem wouldn’t normally be my style, but as this was intended to be a Lakeland cob, it just kind of looks how Ennerdale tastes to me 🤷‍♂️

    Thanks! It’s actually a stainless steel band, but I’m going to get a fellow forum member to fashion a silver one for it. I’m a big fan of silver bands on pipes!

    I’ve always been curious about that blend, any idea if it’s just a bulk VaPer that he repackaged? I don’t recall finding much about it online the last time I looked.

    2019 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake in a Peterson Natural Silver Mounted Army 15. Five years in the jar has turned a good blend into an exceptional one, at least as far as my taste buds are concerned 👌

    First Briar -- Buy New or Estate?

    If you don’t get scalped on Esoterica bags that you only halfway enjoy, can you really call yourself a pipe smoker?

    First Briar -- Buy New or Estate?

    Hell, why sell yourself short. Just take out a loan and start off with a Jess Chonowitsch or two.

    First Briar -- Buy New or Estate?

    I enjoy Peterson’s, they were the first few pipes I ever bought, and I still have quite a few that I enjoy. Hope you find a nice one, There are plenty of nice 80S (their bent bulldog) out there. I believe the 150 is their straight bulldog. Both are fine looking shapes. Show it off when you find...

    First Briar -- Buy New or Estate?

    Often you can get a slightly “nicer” or slightly more expensive pipe for that $100 than what a new one would be. Smokingpipes.com has loads of new and estate pipes in that range. Peterson, Savinelli, Stanwell, and others have plenty of pipes at or less than $100. Smokingpipes is nice because...

    2019 Sunset Harbor Flake in the meer. Every time I smoke this one, I question why I spend money on other more expensive English Blends. If you love English blends and you haven’t tried it, do yourself a favor.
