    Esoterica in Stock

    I agree with the above regarding not living up to they hype. I have only tried Dunbar,not being a big English fan. It had good flavor, almost an incense like mouth feel. After the first half of the bowl started to get tongue bite. Still had flavor and aroma, but something was there that I didn’t...

    My First Batch of Rumtopf

    My aunt one Christmas came around giving spoonfuls of raisins soaked in rum, not bad but not great. If the cherry runtopf is anything like Ginjha (Portguese cherry liquor) then I bet it's delicious! Enjoy and confirm the goodness!

    Serious Cigars 20% Off Sale

    I am a big fan of Serious Cigar as they were the first cigar shop our crew frequented when we were 18. Great ownership and always helpful. Can’t say they about all the local shops.

    Alright, Serious Question of The Day: Do You Toast Your Bagel, Or Not?

    Typo or intentional? Ha. My kids eat the store bought bagels un-toasted with cream cheese, but I toast them, cream cheese, fried egg, and bacon between. Best is an “Everything” bagel. But I did have a bagel in NY once. I ate it however they handed it to me and it was really good (I’m from Texas).

    *** What Are You Smoking?*** (December 2018)

    Dreams of Kadath in my Mountbatten. The amount of flavor from this plug is astounding.

    If You Missed It Earlier.... Limit 2 per Customer

    This is really good tobacco. I've had almost half a tin and for comparison I smoked a bowl right after some Opening Night (aged 7yrs) and CRF was smooth, rich, creamy and delicious. The Opening Night was good (one of my favorites) but still had a brighter flavor, where as CRF had more of a...

    The (Un)Official Secret Santa 2018 Thread!

    My package arrived today!! My wife brought it to me and said Merry Christmas...I totally thought it was gonna be something else...ehem...but then I opened it and it was tobacco!! She asked if I was gonna open it and I told her we gotta wait! That creepy meme of woodsroads' was all I could think...

    PAD - Practical and Fantasy

    The Talbert is an awesome smoker, it has a larger drilling than my other pipes, and clenches nicely. The tobacco burns nice and even, bowl doesn't get hot. And as for be Gilg...funny story. It turns out it was actually not in stock when I hit the in stock button. They offered me the smooth...

    C&D Carolina Red Flake Batch 2 vs Batch 3

    Has anyone started a bowl of CRF, and put it out, and start it back up again at a later time? I ask because I have noticed unlike FVF or other Va’s, when I do this I mostly get a char/burnt flavor from the second light. Usually the delayed bowl is at least as good as the first light, but not...

    Silver VIP At SP

    2K sounds about right....a little embarrassed, but since this is for my future, and it'll never be cheaper, I can justify. And I'm done buying for a while, so we'll see if my silver status sticks for a while or if I get demoted after a year.

    The (Un)Official Secret Santa 2018 Thread!

    I stalked my victim yesterday (in the best way possible), went to Austin today and visited Pipe World to see what I'd find. I think, I hope, I found something special, that I think he'll like. That plus something nice from the cellar, this will go out probably after Thanksgiving so I don't have...

    That Popeye was WAY bigger than I was expecting. It didn't have a resize option on it.

    Help with Pics

    When I save the picture to my profile, I you have to right click and choose "copy image address" not "copy image". Same should work for photos that are googled: Also make sure to delete the initial http and if it has a size delimiter at the end, delete that too. We'll see if my photo worked as...
