    Suggestions for a Sweet Virginia

    So I know McClelland was McClelland. There will never be anything like it. That being said, I do enjoy their 40th Anniversary blend and the sweetness that is provided. What is along the same lines of a straight virginia, or one that has perique as a condiment that would fill that taste...

    Your Response when the Nicotine Hits

    I would say that I am relatively not very sensitive to nicotine. But, there are rare occassions where the face/arms go numb and nause sets it. I usually try not to smoke on an empty stomach, and have something sweet in case it hits. Sometimes, like now, i turn green in the gills. Smoking the...

    St Bernard Tobacco by Dan Tobacco

    I dont see St Bernard by Dan Tobacco mentioned much on any forum. I pulled the trigger and am quite happy with it. I found it to be spot on now, and wonder if or how much better it may become with some age. Is it a staple in anyone elses cellar?

    Mouth Trauma and Smoking

    So today I was a bit overly excited to eat some breakfast and punctured the bottom of my tongue something fierce. It had me thinking if perhaps I should hold off on smoking while I had an "open" wound. Anyone else give it a rest for things like this?

    Black Meerschaum Brand

    Does anyone have any experience with the Black Meerschaum Brand? They seem to have a good deal going on right now. Interesting fittings in they use briar at the mortise.

    Block Quality

    I was thinking the other day about how block quality may effect certain aspects of the pipe 1. Why is it that some pieces that you wouldnt expect to weight much, are like a brick, and other times are light as a feather? Meers are known for being a light material, but i have a Lovat from Baki...

    Some of the Roughest Cut Tobacco

    So I placed and received an order for Northwoods. Now this isn’t the first time I’ve ordered, but this is some of the roughest cut blend I’ve ever received. Anyone else encounter this?

    Coloring of yellow meers

    Loving the brown and yellow meer finishes when new. It had me thinking I’m not sure I have seen these same pipes with good coloring. Does anyone have examples? Perhaps a before and after?

    Esterval's English/Balkan blends

    I have been contemplating an order with Estervals. I was going to pick up a few Salty Dogs, but also wanted to pick up some English/Balkan blends that wouldnt be available in the US. I hear that the reformulations of HU are to be avoided. Asking for other suggestions unless those blends have...

    Is this a Bit of Overkill?

    I thought it would better store in bins and not move about. Not sure if a tight vacuum seal might compromise the tins at all.

    Dry vs Wet Tobacco Out of the Package

    Im always happy when I come across a drier tobacco out of the bulk packaging. I feel it gets me more bang for the buck. A pound of dry tobacco yields much more actual tobacco over wetter blends. It led me to ask this question here. Do you think manufacturers even "intentionally" weigh down...
