    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2022?***

    Drama Reserve and FMATP used to be my daily smokes for years. Reminds me of a prescient poem about cellaring: Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old Time is still a-flying; And this same flower that smiles today Tomorrow will be dying. R. Herrick

    Recent TAD Pick-Ups

    Not far from what I would order if I was in a similar situation. I congratulate you on having superior taste just like my own. I can't justify any more booty but I wish I could.

    Would-you-rather: On Pipes and Dreams

    After having 30+ and likely 50+ ignored miscellaneous pipes for years, I'd swap them easily for 3 nice ones. Of course, I'd continue buying cheap ones.

    Review of Smoking Pipes Reviews

    I prefer the "if you like x, then try y" indirect reviews. I have no clues on the precision flavors specified by some reviewers, whether of tobacco, wine or chocolate. "Eastern Sicilian late season woodruff blossom notes" just makes me want to slap him.

    2018 GLP Temple Bar

    I stocked up on this during the C&D mold years, unknown to me at the time. I should open the remaining tins because I really liked it, hope there are no more surprises.

    Do You Like Latakia in the Winter and Virginia in the Summer? G.L. Pease Discusses for Aug 22 Column

    I got interested in and smoked mostly Virginias last summer (my smoking season) and stocked up for this year. It turned out to be a burley summer. My tastes do what they want.

    Nicotine Ghost?

    I mostly smoke light to medium nicotine blends. I don't crave nicotine; I put up with it. But I have a couple estate pipes in which familiar moderate strength blends seem extra potent. It seems plausible that previous owners may have been high-nic junkies and saturated the briar. Nicotine...

    Did I Overdo It With the Sneaky N?

    I got a few inches of GH rope a few months ago, mostly because I Could. I rubbed out a quarter inch coin, loaded an old brit group 2 bowled pipe and waited for the spins, puffing slowly. Huh. Not bad at all. I must finally be growing up. Next day, Pegasus in same pipe. Wauuugh. Not fair at all.

    Recent TAD Pick-Ups

    2- 7oz. cans SWR @$4 ea. Plus shipping, excise and sales taxes making it $10 ea. Still a respectable deal from cigarbid dot com auction. This stuff may be lowbrow, but I like it a lot.

    Different Pipes for Different Blends

    Whenever a bowl of anything in any pipe works wonderfully, I use that pipe for that blend after that. But I may smoke other blends in it as well. One would think that pipe would be superior for everything else, but that doesn't happen at all. I can never accurately predict good matches. A pipe...

    Too Hot to Smoke?

    I live in my screened front porch between May and October, and thats my pipe room. Next to Lake Michigan, the temperature rarely goes over 90, but humidity does something to Virginia tobacco that makes my mouth burn, even using a gourd calabash. Humidity below 80%, no problem. I don't mind...

    Corn Cob Break In

    Have You Ever Regretted Selling a Pipe?

    I sold a pipe to a jerk who didn't return it but complained and whined about it here. Yes, I regretted that sale.
