    Food Affecting Tobacco?

    Coffee and a simple Crispy Crème Donut along with a pipe of a light Virginia is my favorite combo.

    Pleasant Cellar Surprises

    I found a small jar of H&H distinguished penguin that was half-hazardously sealed with tobacco bits obstructing the seal. It‘s dry as a bone and I love it. My cellar is so deep and disorganized that I anticipate I’ll have many more pleasant surprises in my future.

    Anise / Licorice

    I’m a fan of licorice. I bought a 5 pack of Toscano licorice last weekend. They taste more like a woman’s perfume than they do licorice and terrible to me.

    Shipping Tobacco

    Wait until you drive it over to your brother’s house and get pulled over by the police. Better leave it in the trunk under the tire. That’s where we are going.

    How Much of Your Favorite Blend is Cellared?

    I’ll keep it short also. Too much. If I were to tell anyone they would laugh at me. Like my wife does.

    What Are Your Top Five Pipe Accessories?

    This showed up yesterday. I thought I’d spoil myself a bit. This is a nice brass box that has a real nice weight to it. Apparently the inside is going to tarnish because of the tobacco but I think I’ll just let go as is and see what happens. Some advice for the tin found in the product...

    Meerschaum Dilutes Flavor?

    I don’t know man. I bought four new top tier meers this year and I’ve noticed it. I haven’t been smoking them much because the chase was more fun ; My two old meers I recall feeling the same way but was unsure of what to think about it at that time. They smoke well now and in my opinion are...

    How to Get a Foul Taste out of Meerschaum?

    I’m a bit of a brute but I clean my pipe out with a paper towel after each smoke. Every three smokes or so I use a very fine steel mesh sand paper made for fine scale modeling and clean out the bowl. I did pay $275 for the pipe but it’s 5 years old and I’m not intending to get a return on the...

    “Drew Estate Cigars”

    I haven’t had a bad cigar yet other than an Acid cigar. I threw the small Acid cigarillo pack I purchased into the trash after I tried to make myself smoke them. Make sure you understand what you’re getting into when it comes to Drew Estate Acid cigars. I’ve had three other version that I...

    How to Properly Light a Cigar - Davidoff of London

    I like watching these fellas. They are great examples of gentlemen etiquette. I’ll smoke a cigar and just watch these guys to make myself feel fancy. I wonder if they would enjoy a video of myself driving a tractor and spreading manure on a field while spitting tobacco into the wind.

    That Musty Aroma

    Sounds like 5 Vagas Gold cigars to me. They are great too. They make me want to transport myself to the 80s and I’d wear the band as a gambling ring to attract the cougars
