Mammoth?
Craig, I am “waiting” for a Tom Eltang Mammoth Calabash. But note the quotes around the word waiting. As in he does not do commissions. And his calabash pipes are very rare. I’ve personally seen one of his mammoth pieces and it was stunning. So I wait and keep my eye out. If/when one comes...- npod

Oh Nightcap, What Happened To Thou?
+1 to Cosmic. The hoarding of Dunhill blends was less than 2 years ago. I can’t imagine any significant change to Nightcap in that short period. I am currently working through a jar of Nightcap from 2007 and it’s wonderful with only slight mellowing. But then again, I love my English blends...- npod

Meerschaum And Water
+1 Meers need only a wipe with paper towel right after smoking. Remember, the inner bowel will look black from the heat of the smoke, and it will stay black. But the key is to not build up cake. The black (or dark) bowel doesn't effect the smoking qualities at all.- npod

My First Bowl of SG Full Virginia Flake
It took me a very (very) long time to understand, let alone enjoy FVF. For me I needed some time to mature (myself) and learn more about pipe tobacco, and Virginias in particular.

About a year ago I started lunting around with my dogs every night. Now the neighbors all know me as the pipe guy. I get lots of, "So, what pipe are you smoking today?" I use it as an opportunity to educate people about the culture and hobby.- npod

Another Italian Pipe Shipment Hit With Customs and Duties Charges.
Basically, the original point was that pipes (not tobacco) are starting to get noticed. This is new. That's all. Yes, I know the laws and regulations. But Italy was an oasis for a long time.- npod
