F off to the Excise tax
Part of me thinks it sucks but a much larger part is happy MI moved away from "report it yourself or we will catch you, maybe, and charge you thousands." Everyone in my pipe club knows of someone who got caught. Now I never bought tobacco in that time period, but I'm glad the temptation isn't...- nick24601

***What Are You Smoking, October 2024?***
2nd bowl and A LOT changed. The buttery taste completely disapated after then first couple puffs and was replaced by an earthy taste that built and built down the bowl with an iron tinge.

***What Are You Smoking, October 2024?***
I've never smoked ceramic. Unlike meerschaum it doesn't mute the flavors at all but did impart a buttery taste to the tobacco. This may go away with usage as this was my first smoke in it. The bowl has very thin walls and got rather hot, so I had to let it rest quickly. The chamber is...- nick24601

Hemp Twine for Lighting Your Pipe

Are Windcaps Over?
Title edited for caps. Please see Rule 9 I really want a good quality pipe with a sterling silver wind cap, preferably domed. However it seems like there are none on the market anymore. Is this just a lull in the market or did they stop making them for the most part in 17 or so?- nick24601

Tea and a Pipe
I've found indigopunch from harney and sons mixes well with latakia mixtures. I like their queen Catherine one with others. My favorite is their orange passionfruit but it doesn't pair well.- nick24601
