    5lb Baby

    Very nice :) That would cost you $3000 tax plus the cost of tobacco in the land of OZ :oops:

    Double Fisting

    I also only smoke once a week. Have 3 or 4 pipes going maybe 1/3 full. Could be an OTC, an aro, a vaper and a latakia/oriental. I switch between the pipes and often settle on the one thats hitting the spot more than the others. Its a 1 to 2 hour smoking session in the shed. It developed like...

    Where Do I Go from Here?

    Lanes RLP-6 is like captain black, but better in my opinion. For something different with a sweet smokey taste try - Macbaren HH Old Dark Fired Peterson/Dunhill Early Morning Pipe TimPiper puffy

    Anyone Else Find That Smoking A Pipe Makes You Hungry?

    Smoking the pipe gives me the serious munchies for junk food. Just like 25 years ago when I smoked a different type of weed. Its almost a memory trigger or something. -TimPiper puffy

    Looking For A Floral Balkan Blend

    Robert McConnell - Latakia Flake is what your looking for. But it can be hard to find as its often sold out. If you read the reviews they mention a lakeland like flavour. -TimPiper

    Piping Pet Peeves

    When I order a new blend that has glowing reviews and sure enough, the following day a 1 star review comes through saying its horse S**T and they dumped the tin after a few puffs :eek: Also when suggestions for best blends come up and someone says "I recommend my all time favourite blend, its...

    Done with Latakia, For Now

    I used to think latakia blends were ok, but I preferred VaPers, virginia and aromatics. Then one day I smoked from an old jar of MM965 and something clicked, with that sweet latakia oriental taste. Now I prefer Cavendish, latakia oriental blends and aromatics. VaPers are still ok, but straight...

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    Just smoked a bowl of macbaren london burley from a 2014 jar, in a mm missouri pride straight. Trying to figure out if its worth getting a tin of the new limited release. I have 2 x100g tins and 2x 2oz jars of the old stuff. Its going to be hard to resist buying a tin -TimPiper

    MacBaren 7 Seas Differences

    The regular and the Royal seem to be the most popular. But I like the black the best. Its a Cavendish made with Virginia and has an Amaretto, Chocolate, Vanilla flavour. However I think "Macbarens Original Choice" beats them all puffy It also has black Cavendish made with Virginia. Very complex...

    Can't Get a Handle on Lane 1Q

    To me, RLP-6 has much more flavour and body than 1Q, also RLP-6 Cellars better.

    Antique Find 1916 Barling Special NYMPH

    Might go there tomorrow and get. I suspect its still there at this price, unless a keen collector snapped it up. It would nice to have a pipe that's over 100 years old in the collection anyway.
