    Johnny Walker Double Black - A New, Favorite Blended Scotch

    If you haven't tried Islay inspired scotch, give it a try. More rounded and smooth than many single malts, and more body than most popular blended scotch, it goes well with Latakia blends and cigar leaf blends. I enjoyed it paricularly when paired with GLP Quiet Nights and McClelland Old...

    My First Neptune Pipe from BriarWorks

    I finally found an estate Neptune. Picked it up from our friends at SmokingPipes. It is a sandblasted stubby dublin. I was a bit dubious about the small size but the bowl itself is generous - maybe a size 4? Opinions are welcome on the bowl size. I've been anxious to try one of the pipes from...

    Ebay Shipping Averages

    I was looking at a Savinelli on ebay. Pipe was at $30 but shipping was $25.00 from Australia. Does it really cost that much to ship or is this just a gimmick to boost profits? I generally don't buy if shipping is over $10.00.

    My Growing Jeppensen/Neerup Collection

    I just pulled the trigger on an estate Jeppesen, which I'll use for next month's Tobacco Crawl with Greg Pease. I own a similar Neerup pot, also designed by Jeppesen, pictured below. It was so similar in design and finish that I almost took a pass on ordering the new one pictured above. But in...

    Newminster - No. 400 Superior Navy Flake

    Newminister SNF is an honest, simple, pure, satisfying Virginia flake that bite sensitive smokers can enjoy. Beautiful flakes with fresh pouch aroma of grass and sweet tang. It is just as good in quality as more expensive flakes. I sometimes want complexity in my smokes. Other times I'm looking...
