    Sutliff Hines Mixture Match

    Setting this morning drinking my Black Dog coffee and smoking some Sutliff Hines Mixture Match and realized that I had never seen Hines Mixture Match ever mentioned on the forum. It is a decent smoke that I have always enjoyed. It is an old time aromatic with a chocolate undertone with a good...

    Has Anyone Sent Pipes to Smokingpipes for Credit?

    I was thinking about sending some little used pipes to Smokingpipes for credit. I have no idea how much they give you for the pipes, but anything would be useful in getting newer pipes or tobacco. Has anyone in the forum ever taken advantage of their offer.

    Ever Think your Taste Buds Must be Wrong?

    Edited for capitialization. Removed date (Needed for FS items). -jpm know everyone's taste buds are different. That's why there are so many tobaccos to choose from, but sometimes I think mine must be defective. I read about how certain tobaccos are so good and I try and try to find as many good...

    Leftovers

    Now that the Thanksgiving dinner is nothing more than a memory, the question is who likes leftovers. I have always loved the leftovers as much if not more than the original dinner, but I know of many people who don't want anything to do with Thanksgiving leftovers. So what do you think....eat...

    Your biggest Surprise in Pipe Smoking?

    We all have some big surprises in our pipe smoking experience. A pipe that was expensive and hyped up ended up being a terrible smoker. A tobacco that was supposed to be good was really bad or you expected it to be awful and ended up being really good. Once I bought an estate pipe that I...

    Your Favorite Match Blend

    I enjoy many of the Match blends. Since I haven't smoked many of the originals, I am not overly concerned about if the match is identical or not. I enjoy the match for what it is and for what it is trying to accomplish. I like the fact that these old blends are being continued. IMO Sutliff does...

    Silly Jokes

    I love silly jokes. I grew up when Monty Python's Flying Circus made it to US television. There was no hope for me after that. A silly joke does not have to be long or complicated. My wonderful wife who lives with chronic pain everyday can still enjoy a good chuckle. Her favorite silly joke is...

    How Many Pipes do you Have?

    Title edited. Please capitalize important words only. -jpm Just for conversation sake, how many pipes do you have? I would guess that I have around 60 of various quality and brands. Of those, I probably only smoke regularly around 10. The others get smoked occasionally. Pipes are such great...

    Body Chemistry and Tobacco 11-08-21

    It has always been interesting to me how everyone's body chemistry handles tobacco differently. I have read reviews where it says that the Nic-hit is mild to non-existent and I have gotten a reaction from it, and I have been told by some to watch smoking that because it will knock you on your...

    A Little Cigar Taste in Your Pipe

    The other day I received my latest box of treats from smokingpipes.com. I had added to my list C & D Habana Daydream. The interesting aspect of this tobacco is that cigar leaf is added. There is also Black Cavendish, Virginia, Perique and Latakia. During my life I have enjoyed the taste of a...

    Don Gustavo Pipe 10-29-21

    About a month ago I bought a Don Gustavo pipe for next to nothing. I did not expect much from it, but to my surprise it has been a good smoker. I had never heard of Don Gustavo pipes before and have not been able to find much about them. It is a sturdy built pipe and I use it for beating around...

    Names for Pipe Tobacco 10/26/21

    I believe the Tobacco Companies are missing out on a certain market. Some of their names just don't deliver the urge to smoke them like they should. For humor sake, they should name tobaccos after things we truly love, such as steak and potatoes. Maybe a big bowl of chicken N dumplings would...

    Pipe Smoker Memories

    Some of us have memories of certain pipe smokers that have stuck in our memories. I remember a fellow that went to college with me in the mid 1970's. If my memory serves me right, he was from a nice size farm in Pennsylvania. He was a big fellow and always wore bib overalls. He was always...

    Inherited Pipes

    Part of what we enjoy about pipe smoking deals with the history of pipe smoking and the past. Some have had pipes given to them from fathers or grandfathers. That is such a blessing to have such a piece of family history. Do Forum members have inherited pipes, what condition are they in and do...

You can smoke a cheap pipe or an inexpensive one, a quality tobacco or dog shit, dry or moist, packed tight or light, puff hard or sip, one pipe or many, stockpile tobacco or not.....it goes on and...
