    Smoking a Pipe is so Unsatisfying in This Heat

    Personally I don't understand this aversion to the heat at all; I've been waiting for the 100 degree weather all year. Enjoying some Great Outdoors with the puddle of fur cat out on the lanai now. :puffy:

    New Box Pass Thread

    Thank you for keeping it moving along, gentlemen. Please allow me to remind you of a couple things to facilitate this running smoothly: Turnaround time should be less than 2 weeks. Ship with tracking numbers, ALWAYS. I can think of no good reason on earth to trust the postal service. Keep it...

    The Smoker Blends, Rediscovered: Review & Comparison of New & Vintage

    Thanks rothnh, glad your interests were piqued. There are 15 blends in total, and if you check out their descriptions at http://pipesandcigars.com/the-smoker-pipe-tobacco.html I'm sure you'll be able to find one in your preferred genre. They run the gamut of tastes, and are of the highest...

    Sutliff Private Stock

    I've been trying A LOT of their blends of late, and I must say they've ranged from very good to surprisingly good and beyond.

    Hearth & Home Stogie?

    I'm a fan of the NYPC Jack's Shanty blend, from Hearth & Home as well. Russ really knows his leaf, and is more a cigar smoker than pipe smoker for his own tastes.

    News Item of Note

    As some of you may know I'm a bit of a tobacco sleuthing fan, and this turned up on my radar: Mummies were smokin'.

    Sutliff Molto Dolce Tobacco Review

    It's all part of my plan to corrupt The Children. :twisted:

    Cellared Tobacco and "Breathing'

    Les! We've had this discussion amongst ourselves at the pipe club a few times, and I'm still gathering the data. Bear in mind that chemistry is purely a hobby for me, while conjecture and anecdote are my profession. When opening well-aged blends (let's say anything ten years and above), I have...

    Brigham Pipes

    An estate Brigham, a discontinued style that is a sharp classic English-style bulldog. One of my best smokers, and incidentally, it's usually the first briar I taste-test tobaccos with after I'm done with the meers and clays. It has a wide-open bowl geometry that just does something right. The...

    Trying to Figure Out a Pipes Value.

    The best way to ensure and increase its value? Smoke it.

    Sutliff Molto Dolce Tobacco Review

    Try it, you'll like it! It's saved some otherwise bland blends from the dustbin, and conversely helped me discover new facets of old favorites. I hear you, 6. I do want to add that I think a lot of the conventional wisdom that's out there may not be so sacred--I mean, if you want to pare things...

    The Kansas City Show Report: A Call to Arms

    As I understand it, the winners will be contacted and awarded their prizes (even if not present at the show). While my article veered a little into a rant about current tobacco politics, I hope that didn't detract from the sense that it was an AMAZING show; actually for my money a lot more fun...

    Des Moines Pipe Club May Meeting: 6/27

    Lyle, being a proponent of time travel, has seen fit to hold his June meeting in May. Or his May meeting in June. Or something....
