    Any Pipe Clubs In North Central Florida, Gainesville/Ocala Area?

    I really need to see some of my own kind. Anyone know if any clubs or groups in these areas??

    What Is This On My Pipe Master?

    I purchased an IM Corona Pipe Master and I love it, but I can't figure it what this little lense looking dot is, right below the flame opening. Anyone have a clue?

    Best Bulk VaPer Flakes

    Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake comes to mind, but it's slightly pricey by the pound. Might be no avoiding that, but still. Any suggestions?

    2100% Increase On Pipe Tobacco Date?

    Can anyone here find some dates on this proposed legislation? Like when it hits the floor, when it will be voted on?

    Best Bulk Englishes

    With this stupid bill on the table to hike pipe tobacco taxes, I am looking at doing some serious cellaring. I only have about 20lbs of 'baccy, and that is about 4 years for me. I have a decent amount of Burley blends, and I am ordering some Newminster 400 luxury navy flake and Sutliff slices...

    Smoking Pure Nicotiana Rustica

    Just lit a bowl of wild tobacco from LeafOnly.com, gonna see what happens. It's a very small bowl, a little Roma Court. I've never smoked it straight before, but I have sprinkled a bit in some of my own blends back when I first started with the pipe. I was always too scared to try it on its own...

    Xikar Pipeline

    I have to say, I am decently pleased with the Xikar Pipeline, which was apparently revamped earlier this year. I suppose this post will act as a review. Overall it feels pretty solid. It's not a $100 lighter, and doesn't feel like it, but it's close. Close enough for $50. It feels good in the...

    Cleansing The Palate Between/During Smoking Sessions

    I smoke almost exclusively in late afternoon/evening/night, and I pretty much smoke back to back bowls. Because of this I have always struggled with palate fatigue at times, even sipping like a good boy. I have recently started having water and "bergs" as @jiminks has eloquently put it, and I...

    Do You Like Your Xikar Pipeline?

    We'll I lied, I have another pipe lighter post. On a whim I bought the Xikar Pipeline, since it has a lifetime warranty, looks classy as hell, and I noticed the tamper looks a lot wider than the Colibri Pacific, though why they made a half moon shape instead of a whole damn circle I don't know...

    Pipe Lighters And Special Fuel

    When I get my new Colibri, what kind of fuel should I use? I see brands always saying to use their brand, and I figure that's BS, but I want to be sure.

    Gawith Shipment At Smoking pipes??

    Yeah, so last night I searched for Gawith stuff there and it showed pretty much everything is out of stock, and even a lot their stuff being completely removed and not showing up at all, like the ropes and such. However.... As I browsed the section "Tobaccos we think you might like", there...

    Pipe Lighter Ignition Issues

    One last lighter related thread. I have a Lotus Condor that is really nice, except that I have to click the thing a dozen times just to get the flame going. Is there any way to repair this? I want to give it to a friend since I ordered a new lighter.

    Looking For A Really Good Pipe Lighter

    Title says it, but there's more. I've posted on here before about this, but I've lowered my standards a bit. I need a lighter that has an easily adjustable wheel for flame size, an ignition that doesn't get finicky like you're rolling dice clicking the damned thing over and over again and hoping...

    Where Is Cotton Boll?

    Can someone please help me find Cotton Boll? I'm having zero luck.

    Cotton Boll vs Rustics/Wild Tobacco

    Can anyone who has smoked both of these varietals comment on which one is stronger?

    Cavendished Perique?

    I'm really enjoying C&D/Warped's King's Stride. Definitely different, very complex, and it has cavendished cigar leaf in it. It has a very interesting taste; only every now and then do I catch a real cigar note, but it just makes the whole blend confusing in the beat kind of way. So now I'm...

    Cutting Crumble Cakes

    I have a freshly popped tin of C&D Oak Alley (forgot how much I love this blend) and I wanted to smoke it so badly I didn't even look at it close enough to see that it was a crumble cake and not a plug. So I pawed at it, grabbed a knife and cut slivers as if it was a plug. I noticed what I was...

    Need English Recommendations

    With the rainy season going into full swing down here in Florida, I have purchased a nice wide chambered Rossi Vittoria and I am ready to explore Englishes. I've never smoked much of them as I am a burleyphile, and after my recent foray into Virginias I prepared for another adventure. Any...

    Solano Red Label - Scotch, Or Tropical Flavor??

    I am curious about Solani Red Label. It says single malt scotch, which I love, but then it says tropical flavor.... Is it both? Can anyone comment on this who has smoked it?

    Peterson System Gurgling

    I have a Peterson System, the Ebony 307 model. No matter what weather, humidity, or tobacco I put in it, it ALWAYS gurgles. What gives?
