    Samuel Gawith Full Virginia Flake

    I have never written a review and compared to the likes of some of the jedi night smokers on here, I don't hold a candle. However, maybe a few novice reflections for the piper passing by might be of some use. My entry point into Virginias has mainly come through VaPers. I bought a tin of Orlik...

    To Cellar or Not to Cellar

    It may be a bit early still, but as a new piper I have not really yet considered whether I should create a cellar because my tastes have not been developed yet. However, I can see a few possible favourites starting to emerge. Also reading on here, I am seeing that some are cellaring in...

    Newbies - As a Followup from My 'If I Had it to Do Over Again...'

    EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) - Bob It's a new year and I am starting to march towards my first anniversary of taking up the briar. At the end of July, I posted some of my reflections to new smokers working to get into the hobby. You can read it here...

    VaBur Recommendations

    Absolutely enjoying this new to me smoking hobby. I have been smoking mainly VAs and VaPers, but after going off of aromatics pretty much a friend recently brought me a tin of Sørensen Mixture from Norway and it reminded me that the adventures of discovery in pipe smoking never ends. A+ Great...

    Has Anyone Tried Sutliff Eastfarthing?

    Curious for any opinions. Not much I have found in my searching on the net, including tobaccoreviews.com

    What can I expect in England?

    I am moving to England in December and I wondered if any pipers on here could give me an idea of what to expect. How hard is it to get US tobaccos over there? What will I be able to get over there that is hard to get in the US? I'll go with small supply in my luggage of my current rotation...

    Recommendations For First Excursion Into Virginias

    Have tried some tobaccos in the aromatic and burley categories, and it is time for virginia. Any suggestions for a new piper?

    Does Size Matter?

    As you know from another thread I am on the search for my first briar. I think I prefer a straight stem and acrylic. Probably a billiard or apple shape. I think I lean towards a smooth finish, but am starting to take a liking to the rustic look as well. Choices, choices, choices! The big...

    Please Advise On First Briar!

    So, I have been smoking cobs for a few months and am ready to take the plunge on getting my first briar. My budget is $50-75. I 'think' I would like an acrylic stem, brown and somewhat simple design, and decent size bowl. I suspect at this stage I will mainly be smoking 1-Q. This is what I am...

    Attn Newbies - If I Had It To Do Over Again.

    Almost three months ago I started smoking a pipe for the first time. I had never smoked anything in my life (it's the honest truth!), but I always enjoyed the room note of my uncle's pipes and thought I would give it a go. I thought I would post my learnings for any newbies who are just getting...

    If You Were Stranded On a Deserted Island With Only One Tobacco...

    Which one would you would hope it would be? Imagine a big wooden barrel of it to last your lifetime! I am a new piper exploring aromatics, burleys and English blends. I am hoping your answers made under the extreme focus of being on a island will give me more tobaccos to consider trying out...

    Confessions of a new pipe smoker

    I am thoroughly enjoying this new hobby. I have also thoroughly enjoyed the input from the kind folk in this community. I have appreciated the help and the warm welcome. Contrary to some hobby communities on the internet, I have not experienced any snobbery to me being a new smoker. Also...

    Where do I go from here?

    I have been having a lot of fun and enjoyment from my MM cob pipe and Lane BCA. As I work on my technique I am starting to wonder if I should get another cob and another type of tobacco to compare against. Any suggestions? Maybe an English of some sort?

    Anything I am missing? New smoker advice.

    Hi All — Been wanting to try pipe smoking for some time. My uncle used to smoke them and I loved the way the room smelled. I have never smoked, so I am not sure if I will like actually smoking as much as I liked being around it. So nothing ventured, nothing gained. I am going to go for it...
