    Confusion Regarding Blend Contents

    Title edited for clarity and brevity. See Jeremy Reeves' posts for the real skinny! Bear with me for a seemingly naive question: When a new smoker is trying tobaccos for taste say a Virginia tobacco is it suppose to be just 100% Virginia or 100% Burley or Laktia? Or? I seem to find blends...

    Dedicated pipes and flavor

    I appreciate your info. However in looking back I did not write my sentence well. What I was looking for was: For the new pipe smoker what would you suggest they do about pipes as they are trying to discover what tobaccos they want to smoke. IE "don't bother dedicating a pipe ever you will never...

    Dedicated pipes and flavor

    I never would have thought of it either. So, knowing what you know now, what would you tell a newbie who is just starting out to discover what "blend families" they prefer? What would you suggest? I would like to hear from those that have posted in this thread as it is quite educational. Also...

    I am familiar with his dad's work but not his. Anyone else have an opinion on his son, Glenn's, pipes?

    Filtered Pipes

    Ok so now I feel like a dummy. I do not know 1) why does one use a filter in a pipe and from what I read above I still do not know for sure though Granger mentioned "moisture". 2) Depending on the answer to number 1- I then decide if I need to filter? So please, educate me!

    What is the Best Tip or Advice You've Ever Gotten About Smoking a Pipe?

    Reading the thread: what 1 thing you would pass on to someone starting out: What is meant when some of you say "dry your tobacco". I tried a search but not finding anything that is giving me a clue. Do you literally dry out every ounce of tobacco when you remove it from it's container or? Sorry...

    Looking For A Really Good Pipe Lighter

    That was what I was also asking about. Where does one find a butane insert that fits the zippo case? I was reading there is one called Thunderbird so I looked on the amazon page. It sounded as though some had trouble getting that insert into the zippo case. I wondered if anyone knew what insert...

    Looking For A Really Good Pipe Lighter

    I hope Dar is reading this or anyone else that might know: I have a zippo pipe lighter and would like to change to a butane insert. I read that a Thunderbird was decent but it was from a report back in 2016 or 2018. The reviews on amazon were more recent and said they were not working well or...
