    Sutliff Mixture 79 Cherry Brandy

    I’ve had it from WV in their bulk option. It seemed the topping/casing had faded away. I would imagine a tub is the way to go to ensure that everything is as it should be.

    HU Tobacco Coming to the States

    These are the probably same guys that cellar LBF and LNF by the pound because they say it gets better with age.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Long distant cellar transport

    I’ve had the movers moved my tobacco during PCS. I bubblewrapped everything real good. These days I would transfer to mylar and keep tins as is. The weather shock is overbloated. I’ve had tobacco stored in a 100+ degree garage all year. No issues. And after this year it will be -40 in the...

    G&H Dark Plug vs SG Cob Plug

    They are also nothing alike. Dark Plug tastes more like rope than anything else. But really it is its own thing. Nothing like it.

    STG closes Mac Baren and Sutliff

    For new guys, stop hoarding stuff you never tried because some old guy says it is his favorite. Try everything and then decide and then change it all next year. Your tastes will change because you’ll just get better at tasting and smoking. Most of my favorites arent talked about at all and have...

    STG closes Mac Baren and Sutliff

    Dont buy endless amounts of blends you never tried. 5 years down the road your gonna be lugging it around wondering why you did that. Your tastes are gonna change 100 times by the time you smoke all of it. Aging is as much a myth as it is true. Not all blends benefit, some get better, some worse.

    Dark Fired Kentucky

    If you search the forums here the official GH account said its been the same blend for 2-3 years at this point, kendal kentucky and DBE are being phased out and theyre all Kendal Dark now. And they did this without telling anyone.

    Dark Fired Kentucky

    It doesnt exist anymore. It is the same blend as Kendal Dark now.

    Halloween Releases?

    Country Squire’s Cowboy Coffee is everything Maple Shadows wants to be. Maple Shadows kept me wanting more strength and Aromatic flavors. Cowboy Coffee was the answer.

    Will Italian Makers Ever Switch Back to Ebonite/Vulcanite Stems?

    Castello, Ardor, and Moretti, are these Artisan? Those are pretty big stems also. If I’m gonna put something in my mouth its gotta be nice n slender. Not gigantic and girthy, you know?

    Will Italian Makers Ever Switch Back to Ebonite/Vulcanite Stems?

    I have owned probably 20 Italian pipes over the years. Multiple Factories and even Italian Artisans. One day I just stopped smoking them and decided to keep smoking them until I found out why. I found out it was the stem area that goes into your mouth. The button and bite zone, as well as the...

    Will Italian Makers Ever Switch Back to Ebonite/Vulcanite Stems?

    I’m not saying Peterson makes what I prefer. I just said Peterson because most Pipe Smokers have a Peterson and Savinelli. And for me, Peterson is certainly a big improvement over, lets say Savinelli. I’m not saying one is better than the other, it’s just what I like. If you really want to...

    Will Italian Makers Ever Switch Back to Ebonite/Vulcanite Stems?

    We just have different opinions on what we want. All of those makers stems are terrible in my opinion. It’s just the Italian standard design on stems. Just hold a Savinelli next to a Peterson. You can see the difference. Millimeters makes a huge difference in mouth feel. The stem is the most...

    Too Much Tobacco. What Should I Smoke First?

    Aromatics will be fine in the tin if theyre sealed. When opened, store then packed tight in a mason jar. As for what to smoke, smoke whatever sounds good. Maybe start with Virginia’s, see what you like then move to English, then Burley, then Aromatics. Whatever you want to do. You could die...
