    A Date With the Erinmore Twins (Tobacco Review)

    Crap, I completely forgot to report on the Erinmore Flake Bake experiment from months and months ago! You know I did try it, Bradley, and it was every bit as good as you say. I don't think that tin lasted more than a weekend, actually--it was only a few lines' entry in my tobacco journal...

    Sutliff Tin Question for Cellaring

    These tins aren't for long term storage; I don't have any hard clinical data other than the personal experience of having to kiss half a dozen tins of Anni Kake goodbye, amongst others (which loss I felt less deeply). They are prone to rust on the bottom, and if you've ever walked by a table...

    Mixing It Up With Mac Baren: Scottish Mixture Review

    And I wish I'd been paying more attention to the boards :lol: That's a very generous offer, PAp.g. For sure it would be interesting to compare the vintage to the new; I think the vintage Mac Baren tins are undervalued on the market (to my wallet's delight). I'm curious if this has changed as...

    UPDATE TO THE LIST! Due to a clerical error, for which the offending cleric has been summarily drawn and quartered, chops was omitted previously. I am reinstating his name to its former position in the list. Philobeddoe Samcoffeeman Dragonslayer Lordnoble Rickpal14 Fitzy Pipeinhand...

    Daughters and Ryan?

    Damn fine blends, all of them. I highly recommend them. I should get around to reviewing some of my favorites....

    Welcome to the Great Outdoors (Tobacco Review)

    It's a great workshop blend, isn't it av8? I found it commingled well with the 'atmosphere' in the shop, was uncomplicated enough to let me focus on work and tasty enough to keep me puffing. It works as well in the cooler weather as the warmer, for sure. Glad you found the review!

    Hot Tea & A Pipe. A Good Match?

    Thanks for the shoutout, mrlowercase :worship: Don't get me started on teas; with the cooler weather coming in I've been revisiting my matcha and sencha collection, along with some competition-grade teas I discovered tucked away in a box. Thank goodness tea has a longer shelf life than my...

    New Box Pass Thread

    I'm really glad you enjoyed the Bowling Green Jud--it's actually a blend of 7 different Virginias, leaning heavily on some primo sweet red that Russ had his hands on. I've got some tins that are just past 1 year in the cellar and they're *STUNNING*. Enjoy that Balkan Sobranie, there isn't a...

    New Box Pass Thread

    Well that was nice and quick, Jud! Glad it arrived safely. And thank you for doing the hand-off to Uber. Yes, I'll be posting the newly updated list shortly, with a few minor changes. I think we should keep a limit on the box to the large flat-rate mailer, for a couple reasons: one, it limits...

    New Box Pass Thread

    I couldn't decide what to send in the box, so I'm donating my entire current open rotation to the pass. Also, on behalf of the NYPC, four unopened tins of the New York Pipe Club's New York State-of-Mind Collection blends. They're the first blends I had a hand in tinkering with, and apparently...
