My First Experience with Lakeland / Tonquin
Prior to this purchase, I had absolutely NO experience with Lakeland Floral or Tonquin flavoring. NONE. Never tasted or even smelled it. I’ve read countless reviews describing a wide variety of what these things taste/smell like and I wanted to try it for myself. As 1792 is virtually...- strugglingthinker

Discouraging Attempts at Smoking this Flake
I have had some really frustrating bowls of McLelland's St. James Woods Flake. My two major problems are as follows: MAJOR tongue bite and it is tremendously difficult to keep lit.

Cleaning the Rim of the Bowl
Hi, All. I am in need of some advice. I have a few pipes that I've acquired that have some char on the rim. I'm not convinced that this is all burnt pipe, as this appears more "cake-like" and has flaked off in places to reveal uncharted rim. If possible, I would like to remove this "cake" from...- strugglingthinker
