Pipe Tobacco’s Future
As long as you still enjoy smoking a pipe, there's tobacco you like to smoke available for purchase, and your health is such that you can smoke a pipe then I don't see any reason to give up pipe smoking. Yes, the available number of blends to choose from will reduce and prices will rise over...- Skippy Piper

How Do You Organize Your Tobacco Cellar?
As soon as I get any tobacco I transfer it to a Ball jar, since I don't trust tins to not rust inside over time or tubs/pouches to not lose their seals, so I've just got a little shelf of 8 oz Ball jars that I organize by genre. My shelf order goes: Aromatics first, then Lakelands, Virginias...- Skippy Piper

Shag Tobacco
I'm a big fan of Gawith Hoggarth's Kendal Mixed! It's my favorite pure Virginia by far and features a relatively equal mix of fireplace smokey dark fired Virginias, toasty bready stoved Virginias, and just a little dash of hay-like bright Virginias for contrast. It's got a medium nicotine...- Skippy Piper

Best affordable pipes?
There's been plenty of good recommendations already, but I'll toss in a kind word for Morgan Bones, Rossi (which are really just Savinelli seconds), and Dr. Grabow's Royalton line since the Royaltons have really nice lucite stems on them that feel comparable to Savinelli's lucite stems in...- Skippy Piper

Jim's STG Versions of Mac Baren Blends Reviews.
Howdy @JimInks! I was just wondering if you have gotten your hands on any of the new STG produced versions of Three Nuns and Presbyterian Mixture yet? I always liked the Mac Baren versions of them and am curious how the new STG versions stack up. Three Nuns is the one blend from the acquisition...- Skippy Piper

WTB: Samuel Gawith Full Virginia Plug (10/01/2025)
I unfortunately missed out on the latest drop of Samuel Gawith blends on SmokingPipes last month and nowhere else in the US seems to have gotten shipments of Samuel Gawith blends, so I'm trying my luck with the secondhand market! What I'm looking for is an 8 ounce box of Samuel Gawith Full...- Skippy Piper

Skippy's Blend of the Week
Unfortunately I'm gonna need another week on the upcoming blend review due to my ongoing throat issues. I did have a doctor's appointment on Friday to get my throat checked out and the doc thinks the off and on sore throat I've had for better part of a year now is from a combination of smoking...- Skippy Piper

The STG Vinegar Curse Continues
Just to be sure I'll be putting in an order from SmokingPipes on Wednesday for a couple more ounces of RLP-6 and HG-2000 to see whether I just got an off batch or if they're still lightly vinegared. I'll be crossing my fingers that I just got a weird batch when I ordered some back in August and...- Skippy Piper

The STG Vinegar Curse Continues
Which would be just fine if they were making red Virginias, but I don't want no dang vinegar on my chocolate mousse caramel vanilla marshmallow fluff-bunny blend! I'll be very curious to find out if anyone else who has recently ordered bulk Lane blends has found theirs to have gotten the...- Skippy Piper

The STG Vinegar Curse Continues
I was really hoping the profane violation of Sir Walter Raleigh with vinegar would be an insolated incident, but sadly that seems to not be the case. Exactly one month ago on August 22nd I received an order from SmokingPipes containing several bulk Lane blends, including RLP-6, LL-7, and HG-2000...- Skippy Piper

Grape
If there's ever another run of Captain Black Grape I definitely need to get my hands on some! I'm a nearly daily smoker of Captain Black Original and the sort of vile heathen who actually quite likes Captain Black Cherry, so I assume their Mad Grapist would be right up my alley! 😅- Skippy Piper

Skippy's Blend of the Week
I'd sure love to try it if I could get my hands on it, but I've never managed to find any in stock anywhere. It's an awfully rare and hard to come by blend! 😅- Skippy Piper

Skippy's Blend of the Week
I did, but I already let him out... and now he's on fire, so maybe he would have been better off just staying in that can. 👀- Skippy Piper

Skippy's Blend of the Week
After a month off from reviewing pipe blends I'm itching to put pen to paper again, so expect a new blend review coming next weekend! While I haven't really figured out my throat issues yet past, "My throat doesn't like Cornell & Diehl blends" or come to any definitive conclusions about whether...- Skippy Piper

Ok You Smoke A Pipe
Once you learn to smoke a pipe the problem quickly becomes not how to smoke, but what to smoke. My oversized cellar of more Ball jars than I know what to do with can attest to this. At the moment though I'm smoking Prince Albert in a straight Missouri Pride cob, with a Dr. Grabow filter since I...- Skippy Piper

Irish Flake new pipe smoker
If you like the dark fired flavor and nicotine strength of Irish Flake then that narrows your search window considerably, since the pool of blends that share those attributes is fairly small. While there are a couple other strong blends from Peterson worth checking out, such as Royal Yacht and...- Skippy Piper
