Wessex Gold...
Brick, Slice, Flake... Are these three the same tobacco sold in different format or are they each a little different? Don't want to buy all three only to find they are the same thing. Thanks, Cob- TakeThisCobAndStuffIt

Spotted...In The Wild!
I can't recall the last time I saw someone casually smoking a pipe in public besides myself. Today, while I was on the way to pick up my son from school there he was!

I understand all of the thermodynamics of the heat etc. Just asking those with experience are they as bad for the meerschaum material as they are for briar...- TakeThisCobAndStuffIt

What is a match tobacco blend?
So, I see these match blends at various purveyors and I can't tell if they are worth the cash. Are they exact same tobacco blend but unbranded? Are they close flavor matches but otherwise cheaper materials? I get that they may be good in their own right but it is unclear to me. Two...- TakeThisCobAndStuffIt
