    Is it Legal to Smoke a Pipe while Driving?

    I find it much more dangerous for a child to have a car accident because his father, during a maneuver, poured the embers on the balls

    Dedicated Pipes

    LOL Ghosts exist, but sometimes they can generate interesting blends. I have a Castello that has only seen Virginia and a Dunhill that has only seen Latakia. I need these two fixed points, then on the others I can be more random.

    How Biased Are Pipe Tobacco Reviews

    I can no longer connect to "Tobacco Review" because the government (or whoever) has blocked internet access to all foreign tobacconists, including some sites that talk about tobacco (sooner or later it will be Pipes Magazine's turn, who knows.... if one day you will no longer see me... :D ). On...

    I Am a Pipe-Smoker

    Well, there aren't many, from the way you were talking (perspective 1000) I had the idea that you had many more. So let's say that you are in the "normality" (for the moment :D ).

    I Am a Pipe-Smoker

    I have 25 and it's my all-time high, but I smoke about 20 of them regularly. I smoke only once a day and not every day. What stops me from buying more (beyond the economic factor) is not so much having the embarrassment of choice on which pipe to use (if only!), but that it becomes difficult -...

    Is it Legal to Smoke a Pipe while Driving?

    I would be in big, big trouble if it were mandatory. If it is not banned in almost every part of the world I think it is due to a legislative gap, I have no other explanation. A funny sketch comes to mind in "Sturmtruppen", a comic strip like "Peanuts" so to speak, where the protagonists are...

    Do You 'Trust' This Style of Rack?

    It looks like the photo was taken just before the Pot on the bottom right fell. However, I have already seen a rack like this on this forum in photos of a user showing off his pipes. So let's go easy on the gaffes.

    Your Own "Worst" Tobacco

    It's strange, not that you didn't like it, but that you found it acrid and cigarette-ish. Maybe you shouldn't have let it dry. Maybe next time try smoking it with the humidity of the tin.

    I Am a Pipe-Smoker

    Hi Richard, nice to meet you, my name is Enrico. I always enjoy reading your posts, so funny and full of enthusiasm. I just hope that - after a rocket start - you can continue to cultivate this passion, even in the future, with the right balance. I say this because flashes in the pan are...

    Thanks for the very complete answer 😍 I think it will be of interest to other users of the forum.

    Sun bear 2024

    Do You Have a Disappointing Pipe ? And Why

    Really disappointing, none. However, there were pipes with which, once you had them in your hand, you didn't get the feeling and they remained stuck on the rack. After a while, they moved from the rack to ebay.

    JimInks, I've Gotta Ask.

    I also abuse @JimInks 's availability to satisfy - if possible - a curiosity: I see that you smoke mainly British pipes; is there a particular reason? Maybe you find them more analytical?

    SP Doesn't Do Extra Pictures Anymore?

    It would be enough to delete the ads of the pipes sold. I hate to see the photos of a beautiful pipe and then read that it was sold a century ago.

    Aftertaste

    Do you always smoke the entire tobacco to the dregs? Because that could be the reason. I have learned to empty the pipe as soon as the flavor veers into that rancid, bitter taste typical of damp, tarry dottle.

    What Pipe Brand Don’t You Own But Want To?

    What Does Latakia Taste Like

    It depends on whether it is Syrian or Cypriot latakia.
