A Great Wife, A Whimsical Yanik Pipe, & A Merry Christmas
So a few days ago my wife had asked me to look for a pipe I wanted for a Christmas present. I had shown her one that was in her price range but she asked me to make sure there wasn't another one I might prefer. After dinner tonight she brought up the subject again and I mentioned I was waiting... -

Anyone Know If Joao Reis Ever Carved Meer Pipes Or Is This Someone Else
I'm looking at a couple of meers and the other than the typical "gorgeous hand carved pipe" description the seller notes "carved by master Reis". I'm not familiar with any meer carvers by that name. I've messaged the seller requesting any information or pictures of marking on the pipes but... -
Any Good Sources For Gourd Calabashes?
Other than fleabay and etsy does anyone know of reliable sources for a real gourd calabash? Preferably new but in good shape estate will work. It seems the interwebs is flooded with no-name wood versions but I'm looking for more like the one in the movie Inglorious Basterds. It doesn't have... -
New Manil Blend - La Volute
Known for its use of Semois leaf — a Burley varietal grown in Belgium's Ardennes Valley — Tabac Manil here presents their fourth pipe tobacco blend, La Volute. Like the La Brumeuse blend, La Volute consists purely of Semois tobacco but is cut more like a crumble cake rather than a ribbon. Such a...- shanez

Home Improvement Of The Best Kind
I recently moved into a new house and the master bedroom is much larger than the old one and I had this wall that was just bare: So I says to myself "bar and fireplace". It sounded reasonable as I'm a rational kinda guy. I spent time looking for a liquor cabinet that might fit the bill to...- shanez

An Ode To GH&C Scotch & LA Flakes (& BCF)
Okay so not really since I don't have a poetic bone in my body although I have been known to wax pathetic. Anywho, as to the titled blends. The more I smoke these the more I love them. It's like I've got a fever for Scotch, Louisiana, and Bob's Chocolate flakes and the only cure is more...- shanez

On The Hunt! (When PAD Is Truly Enjoyable)
I've been wanting a pipe from a specific carver for a little over a year now but have been unable to connect thus far. I've talked with him a bit, considered commissioning a pipe from him, and even looked through pictures of pipes he has previously made and said he could make another of, but so... -
Alcohol Soluble Compounds in Pipe Smoke?
Just throwing this out there. I have no earthly idea what I'm doing. Plus I do tend to enjoy a drink at inappropriate times. (Can't drink all day if I don't start early...) So I have noticed what I can currently only describe extra flavor in my smoke when I take a puff right after, or very...- shanez

Mickey Mouse: For the Adult Child In Us All
I find these to be absolutely hilarious. Since my daughter is 20 months old we watch small kids stuff at our house like Mickey's Clubhouse. Good show for a child. However, through the magic of youtube autoplay I recently discovered the "A Mickey Mouse Cartoon" series. Enough amusement for a...- shanez

Pipe Smoking & Shivering, It's That Time Of Year Again!
Nope, this isn't about smoking in the cold (well maybe for some of you but it's still over 80 here). Halloween is probably my most favorite time of the year. A pipe with a nice blend, a good drink, sitting on the back patio on a nice evening, and listening to a spooky story is pretty much...- shanez

Another Negoita!
I like my other one so much that when I saw this one I knew it just had to be done! And now we wait patiently by ye olde mailbox. As with my other one, I love the juxtaposition of the smooth brown against the dark blast.
