    Favorite Youtube Tobacco Reviewer

    before i pull the trigger on a tin ive never tried i always research the different websites (smoking pipes, pipes and cigars, tobacco review etc) and get a feel for what everyone is saying. I then get to youtube and do a quick search. It never fails that i close out the window within a few...

    Wife Found My Stash

    i think once my wife realized that tins are fairly cheap (relatively speaking), it lessened her concern on my stockpiling. i mean a bulk ounce can run you $3-4 and you can find that in between the cushions. Now if youre ordering hundreds of dollars of long forgotten rare blends, well then you...

    Getting It, What It Was Like for Me

    i see the hobby vs lifestyle debate quite a bit and ive always framed it as if you have one or two pipes and maybe one or two blends and you smoke once or twice a month thats a hobby. but if youre like us, multiple pipes, countless blends, numerous bowls smoked per week, and maybe too much time...

    Unpopular Opinion: I Don’t Like Cobs

    when i first started smoking i looked down on cobs. i saw them as cheap and ugly and I always held pipe smoking as a more regal, elegant way of enjoying tobacco which therefore necessitated a fancy smoking device. i of course spent lots of money on briars before circling back to the cob and...

    Did I Just Ghost My New Pipe?

    i smoked some vision of celephais in one of my pipes recently and boy did it ghost. I could smell the grape bubble gum scent in the pipe when it was just sitting on my desk. i ran some other blends through the pipe maybe 2-3 bowls and smell/taste is gone. i think ghosting is overrated and...
