    Stronger?

    I'm looking to buy a good English and read on Tobacco Reviews the difference between Balkan Saseini and White Knight. The Saseini was listed as very mild, mild to medium and medium. The White Knight got medium to full reviews. I like a stronger English. Have any of you had these two, and is this...

    Which One?

    Hello. Of the English tobaccos I've never tried, I have 2 in mind: Black House & White Knight. Black house throws me a bit with Cavendish & Perique thrown in. The White Knight is a "true" English, I believe. What do you think of these 2 blends, which one taste more like an English and which one...

    Simple Question?

    For a seasoned pipe smoker, I have a simple question, How does "Tamping" work & why does it help keep the tobacco burning? Thanks, LeRoy

    Oriental

    I'm very interested in trying an Oriental-forward blend. Not straight Oriental, but a quality blend that gives me that. Thanks, LeRoy

    Sealed tight enough?

    I recently used a Mason jar to make & shake a homemade dressing. When I shook it, a little of the dressing came out. Has this happened to you before, and is the sealed (a cap, screw ring type )?

    Unique Tobacco, please?

    Hello. Can anyone suggest a uniquely blended tobacco along the lines of Plum Pudding or Northwoods? There taste is so different & complex than any other Englishes. Thanks, LeRoy

    Your Best Blends...

    I need to read this section more and catch up on some of your tried-and-true best blends. I'm going to experiment with adding some Cavendish and a little VA to my next blending with Rustica. It needs a bit of softening-up and the two condiments might help. But please, send me some of your...

    A Little More, Please...

    I really love Westminster and Maltese Falcon for the condimental tobaccos & especially the Latakia. But I find myself adding a little blending Lat just to get it "just right". Can anyone recommend a blend that gives me this? Thanks, LeRoy

    Staining a pipe???

    I have an older pipe that is really a nice one, but to revitalize it, I wanted to sand it, deep clean it, and re-stain it. Do you use standard wood stain, or something else? My brother does a lot of wood work & has a ton of really nice wood staining liquids. Can you recommend something else, or...

    Latakia Blend Bastardized?

    I truly do love both Maltese Falcon & Westminster, but I do wish they both had a little more Latakia in them. Would you please recommend a tobacco bled of the same vein, but that does not need to be "fixed" or "bastardized" with the added Latakia? For now, I guess that's what I'll do. I have OCD...

    Kadath Visited...

    Hello. I just received C&D's Dreams of Kadath. It has an interesting aroma and taste, and I'm trying to work through this "kitchen sink" blend. There is something I truly like about it, and I DO want to like it. Who out there has smoked this blend, and what do you think of it. Please describe...

    Two Blends to Go...

    I just received a package today, and it contains 3 blends I've never tried: Boswell's Northwoods, Dreams of Kadath & Maltese Falcon. I'll let you know how they all are when smoked. I'm truly looking forward to something different. Wish me luck and let me know if you've tried any of these and let...

    Drying Effect

    Can opening & closing the cellaring jar too much to load a pipe dry the tobacco any?

    Spring Cleaning...

    Hello. I need to clean and freshen some of my pipes. Rid them of a sour smell, and make them taste fresher. Can anyone recommend a homemade solution for this? I know there is Decatur's Briarfresh which will help with the odor, but I'd rather get a "recipe" that works for you guys, and tweak it...
