    Ghosting as an Enhancement

    There’s a lackluster VA tobacco I’ve been keeping in my truck with the sole intent of using it up to make room for something better. It’s not awful, it’s just a blend I find unremarkable, and I see no point in hanging on to it. Today, for lack of a reason not to, I packed it into a pipe I have...

    Meerschaum Pipe Display at Oz Arts, Nashville TN

    Please forgive the shoddy photography, as I didn’t have sharing them in mind when these pics were taken. The post about the $40k pipe reminded me that I attended an event awhile back at Oz Arts in Nashville, and this display happened to be just inside the entrance of the building, so I snapped a...

    Blend List Proportions

    EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) When companies/distributors list the types of tobacco in a blend, do they list them in descending order, or is the order arbitrary? Can they leave things out?

    Am I Late to the Party?

    I picked up pipe smoking as a quarantine hobby back in the Spring, and I love it. Diving in and exploring/researching the pipe blend world, I feel like I may have missed some sort of Golden Age. For example, my local shop has a house blend that is an all time favorite of mine, and the owner...
