    LC Based Commission

    So after seeing an eBay add and then reading the discussion on here, I fell a little in love with the Dunhill LC shape. I couldn’t find one I could afford/was available so I commissioned Chris Herriot at Oiseau Briars (link to his page is here) to use the shape as inspiration. It arrived today...

    Grandfather’s Meerschaum

    So today my family visited for the first time in 6 months due to lockdowns here. They finally got to meet my son for the first time. It was a wonderful and emotional day. To top it off my Nana brought with her my late grandfather’s meerschaum pipe. I didn’t know any of his pipes were still...

    Rum Topped Blend Recommendations....

    I love rum. I love tobacco. What recommendations are there for a perfect marriage of the two? GH Jamaican flake is the only rum topped I’ve tried and it leaves me fairly cold. Any help gratefully received.

    Loose Threaded Stem Issue

    Hoping for a bit of help/advice. I recently acquired the pipe picture below. Quite pleased with it for the age etc but the stem is loose, as in dangerously may fall apart at any time loose. it’s a threaded system and just doesn’t seem to grab. Not sure if there’s a bit of thread missing or...

    Two New (to me) Pipes

    Today was a brilliant day. Two auction pipes arrived - A P.Jeppeson High Grade and a 1909 Carrington Gough (or so the auction said, may need help verifying!) Off to clean them up. As well as an amazing tobacco package from a forum friend over in the USA. Great Day!!

    English Blend Help

    I am having some difficulty with English blends..... I smell them in tin - they speak to me, I adore the smell. Slightly smoky, slightly spicy and rich. I smoke them and I don’t seem to enjoy them. They are ok, but they don’t sing. I don’t think it’s a packing/speed of smoking issue. I’ve...

    Nightcap Alternatives

    I’m sure this has been asked before but wondering if folk could suggest some alternatives to Nightcap? I’ve found it very satisfying so fancied trying some other similar offerings. Open to suggestions from all over but available in the UK blends would be cracking. ?

    Orlik Golden Sliced Alternatives?

    OGS seems to be a blend that a lot of folks round here extoll the virtues of. I can’t get it in the UK at the moment it seems. wondering if there are suggestions of alternatives that provide similar satisfaction?

    Lakeland Question

    I recently got a whole load of 10g samples. :col: Within which is some Ennerdale, which has a fairly unique aroma.....should I be concerned about it affecting the flavour of whichever pipe I smoke it in? Or should I just get a cheap MM pipe to try it in to see whether I like it or not? Any...

    Aromatic Suggestions

    I’m extremely new to the forum so hopefully I’ve put this in the correct place and it’s not a question you’re fed up of! I was wondering if people had recommendations of a good aromatic to start off with? When I first got a pipe I was given a cherry aromatic to try along with a few other bits...
