    Missed the drops and was curious if anyone has had some of his newer blends and thoughts? Thanks for any info.

    Ennerdale Flake

    Love Ennerdale. Bought a tin of 1792 thinking it was more of the same. Nope. Still investigating whether I like it or not. Kicked me in the butt one night with the Nic hit. Will have to try the Bosun sometime

    How Many Open Blends?

    easily over 70. I don't sweat anything diminishing. I haven't had any problems with moisture loss or flavor weakening in jars. Sure there are plenty I have to jar up but I don't want to wait 3 years before finally being able to enjoy what I just bought. Variety is the spice of life. Love...

    Oldest Smoked Tobacco...

    Hello there, I was thinking about this the other day about how many of us don't have some of the famous old stuff and probably never will own it. So in the spirit of living vicariously though the smoking descriptions of others I wondered if some of you would share what you have smoked recently...

    Stoving Tobacco and Thoughts?

    Hello all, I recently tried stoving a couple of tobaccos I owned that I thought were a bit one dimensional. A. Capstan Blue. B. Peter Stokkebye Luxury Bullseye Flake C. Peter Stokkebye Luxury Flake. I followed a recipe from a YouTube smoker suggesting the "four 2's". 200 degrees in the...

    Trying Out Gawith Blends and Sharing My Impressions

    Forgive me if this has already been asked here. Just curious since you're running through the G&H line up any one here know which of their blends is the strongest with the Lakeland essence. I gave Ennerdale a try and loved it and was curious if I would like the essence even stronger. Thanks...

    Tobacco Recipe Books

    Being a collector. What ones in particular are good ones?

    Tobacco Recipe Books

    Yeah I have seen several sites online with suggested blending recipes and even other forums that have this. I love books and especially historic tobacco books of which I have a couple. I have to imagine that John David and other master blenders have books they have used as references to create...

    Tobacco Recipe Books

    Don’t know if it’s been done but I would love to hear your thoughts on titles worth chasing down. Regardless of how difficult they would be to acquire. I remember forever ago on the Country Squire Podcast John David mentioning some and wished I wrote them down. Thanks for any help.

    Peterson P-Lip Spit Collector

    Yeah I don’t think I would ever buy another one this style. Wonder what the feasibility of swapping out another style with this Peterson.

    Peterson P-Lip Spit Collector

    Anyone else have this struggle with this type of stem. I have plenty of pipes and have smoked for decades. No problems with any other pipe but this is my first voyage with this type of stem…not liking it. Lol

    Selling Valuable Cellared Tobacco

    Good question clarification. I mean an owner having tobaccos that have a perceived value to the seller that is reflective of some big sales on the market but are priced at a level that few can buy. Ie. You can sell a bag of esoterica for $400 bucks but there are only so many whales in the sea...

    Selling Valuable Cellared Tobacco

    Not contesting the current prices in the tobacco for sale listings, but definitely a high rollers market. I also am old enough to know what you ask for isn't necessarily what you get. But it got me thinking of an interesting conundrum where if you sit long enough on stuff, it may become so...

    Small vs. Wide/Big bowl

    Title edited. See Rule 9. I’ve seen this pop up over various chats about smoking particular tobaccos with favorite pipes. Is there a general rule of thumb with Virginia’s vs Lat bombs faring better in one type of bowl size than another. Maybe it’s not the type of tobacco but the type of cut...

    Searchtempest for Pipe Tobacco

    For the life of me I can't remember the name of the website that I used to go to that was a global search of new tinned pipe tobacco and where it was being sold along with prices. Anyone able to help out a brother here?

    Oregon Ban on Flavored Tobaccos Moves Forward

    My friend is a cigar shop owner and he doesn’t believe it will affect online businesses ability to ship orders to Oregon. For what it’s worth
