    April NYC Pipe Club Meeting

    That guy's the greatest! I had him baptize my cats, in fact :mrgreen: Seriously though, the pipe club meetings are great at our new venue--Circa Tabac, one of the last bastions of smoking in this city at the end of the world. It was great meeting you too, Allan, see you next month.

    Essence of Vermont Review: 4Noggins blend

    I just got a couple ounces of this and initial tastings were lovely. Will definitely be spending some more time parsing it out.

    Drought Stemmed Production of Large Corncob Pipes

    An interesting tidbit from the InterWebs--and a real stretch for the headline. I don't think anyone needs to worry overmuch about stockpiling cobs for TEOTWAWKI, but it never hurts to add one or two more to the collection.... :puffy:

    Oddball Pipes

    I too tend to gravitate toward the jet-age oddballs of the litter. To wit: 1974 Dunhill 956--I call it the Bearded Yachtsman Some of those Jet Streams Mark mentioned Kaywoodie Supergrain #61 Weber Streamliner. Was unsmoked til I got my paws on it; circa 1940

    Tobacco Review Tips: a Rant...

    It's good to know what buggers the hell out of some of y'all; I'll make sure to exclude any religious leaders, passing fancies, or purple prose from future reviews. :wink:

    Dorisco Mixture Review by Romeowood

    That's a very good point, Bob, and perhaps I need to adjust the lenses of my rose-coloured glasses a bit. 8) I freely admit to being a bit biased by my long-running fascination with aged tobaccos; it stems at least in part from my voracious appetite for Virginias, which are a lot easier on my...

    Sweet Lord, A New Instant Favorite.

    Confessions of a Germaphobe

    Interesting theory on the alcohol drying the wood out. I have *kind of* experienced this while overzealously retorting an estate. My experience has been that the 2-3 drops of alcohol used in daily cleaning are sufficient to loosen the surface tars, perhaps even suspending them in solution long...

    Dorisco Mixture Review by Romeowood

    Thanks Les--fortunately I know our tastes run in a very similar vein. More reviews, you say? I recently knocked one out for fun in a Lovecraftian style for Baron's Miskatonic University experiment. There are also a few more here at the site. And don't forget LuxuryTobaccoReviews.com, where I...

    Confessions of a Germaphobe

    I follow a similar regime, team, and prefer always-fresh, like-new pipes to overly-anointed ones, let's say. The bristles in cleaners aren't rough enough to scar the inside of your stems or shanks, although exercise caution about the occasional bent end of a cleaner, the little metal wire can...

    The Theory Behind Aging Tobaccco

    Well, no...yes, and no. But mostly no. There are some fascinating experiments going on right now with quantum computing and even quantum refrigerators, as well as possible extra-dimensional alteration of the time-space continuum. But we haven't been able to truly alter time yet, and that's most...

    What is the Prized Possession in Your Cellar?

    Late 50s / early 60s Escudo. And yeah, it's worth the wait. Tons of old GLP Virginia blends too, which are great at any age.
