    Skippy's Blend of the Week

    Oh I do. It’s a Ginger Snap sweetness with a sour note from the bowl and the nuttiness of the burleys. The retro provides a different flavor from what drifts from mouth to nose and the note from the bowl is yet another dimension. The fog (room note) is very old school. On edit: Have you ever...

    A Great First Year!

    There should be a scientific study performed. Is it because we’re all in varying degrees sedated? Can’t be nicotine because if there was a cigarette forum it’s would be anything goes. Pipe smokers, as a whole, are quite civil. I suppose it’s a shared personality trait. Akin to how CRAPS...

    Do You Like Snow?

    When retired? You appreciate the beauty and tranquility is momentarily provides. If you are in UpState New York the above may apply. In the City? It will soon turn into ugly, gray slush tainted by car exhaust and street grime, compacts to ice and makes driving a nightmare.

    Metal filters / filters in general

    I prefer pipes without filters. I won’t own a pipe that will not pass a pipe cleaner easily to the bowl while smoking. Most of my pipes are straight billiards. The few bents I own will pass a pipe cleaner easily. Around mid-smoke, I’ll insert and remove each end of a pipe cleaner which...

    Skippy's Blend of the Week

    And for me… that quintessential ratio of sweet va and burley has to go to Pegasus. I’ll never tire of that blend.

    Skippy's Blend of the Week

    I have tried Briar Fox. It’s funny because @didimauw really enjoys Briar Fox and and he and I share similar taste in tobacco. But I don’t reach for it. The positives? I love the crumble cake. It loads easily and smokes well. I even enjoy it’s flavor. But it, to me is a wispy, light smoke...

    Skippy's Blend of the Week

    Skippy, If you reverse those blends, I could’ve written this. Having had my passing interest in HH Dark Fired and English blends, Pegasus, which I consider the definitive sweet, rich, nutty VaBur makes my smile even wider. Keep up the reviews. Your posts are a breath of fresh air, Skip.
