    Balkan Sobriane & Esoterica; What's the Deal?

    In my opinion this isn't an entirely new phenomenon. When I first started (not as long ago as SableBrush, but still a good while back), people would shell out ridiculous sums of money for GL Pease Bohemian Scandal and Renaissance as well as Balkan Sobranie. I fell for the FOMO (although there...

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2023?***

    This could go into almost any one the What Are You... threads but I'll put it here. Smoking Old Dark Fired in a Pete flame grain 03. The ODF has been fighting a battle against the ghost of Condor in this pipe for about a month. The tide is finally starting to turn under the force of ODFs...

    Any Other Biker/Riders?

    Go ahead and laugh. I'm used to it. But I love my Vespa 250GTS anyway. Pretty sad I'll probably only get another month or two of riding around Chicago before the weather turns nasty. Pic is from 2020 in case you're wondering why there's a mask on the seat.

    Star of the East in the drunk Dublin sitter.

    I remember this one. You've posted pics of this pipe before. It is so cool!

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2023?***

    Yeah, it's a good one. Been quite a while since the last time I had it. The sample you sent was the right age to retain the perfect amount of Lakeland essence.

    Rattray's criminally underrated 40 Virginia in a Baki meer.

    On Tuesdays, And Saturday Mornings Before 8:37 AM, The Left Side Of The Blend Tastes Differently From The Right Side Of The Blend

    Best. Thread. Ever.

    Show Me Pipe Rack / Storage Options

    My house is on the small side so space is at a premium. I installed shelves on the underside of a staircase. They hold about 25 open blends and about 25 pipes.

    Heaviest Latakia bulk blend?

    It may not be the absolute highest, but C&D Star of the East is available in bulk and claims to be 50% latakia. Balkan Supreme and Father Dempsy are also good, but SOTE is my go-to.

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2023?***

    Thanks. The pipe was kind of an experiment. It's meant to look like a soft boiled egg with the top cracked open. I think it was a decent idea, but I'm not 100% happy with the execution. And there are quite a few voids in the briar on the other side that you can't see in the picture, so it's now...

    Noble Jones - sample generously provided by @lukasstrifeson as a bonus when I bought some of his ODF.

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2023?***

    A nice tall bowl of Star of the East on a crisp fall evening. I've been trying some of the bulk lat bend challengers recently, but this one is still on top for me.

    What Cigar are You Smoking? 2023

    Given to me by a friend about 10 years ago. Enjoying it during some late season grilling. The years have been kind to this one. Tastes like a blend of dark fried Kentucky and Latakia.

    Low Acid Coffee Help

    What everyone said so far is true. Diet can make a huge difference. I am fortunate to only be a mild sufferer of occasional reflux so I don't know how much my advice helps but some (far too few) roasters do rate the acidity of their own product. Collectivo coffee in Milwaukee is one of them. I...
