    Rabbit Tobacco from the Smokey Mountains

    I'll preface by saying this - I live in the Smoky Mountains of North Georgia (right by North and South Carolina). Appalachian traditions and culture have fascinated me from my childhood hood. I got the Foxfire books as a kid and it unleashed a yearning for tradition within me. I don't know a ton...

    Penny Farthing - What's Changed, and When?

    I'll start by saying I love the stuff and have just over a pound - most of it being from 2020 and 2021. I haven't bought any since 2021, and that was early in the year. I recall a thread here discussing its changes and how it's not what it used to be. Can anyone lend any insight into what these...

    Smitty's Ciagr Lounge Pipe Show 2023 (Georgia)

    A great time was had by all - old and new friends. Brought home lots of gifts and bought a few pipes and some tobacco. Was really impressed with the turnout for such a small show. And the shop did great keeping everyone hydrated and fed. Dave Shain (ThePipery) and Smitty's are the ones...

    The Bripe - for lovers of Coffee and Pipe

    What we've all been missing in our lives - a pipe used to consume coffee. (I kid, obviously).

    Rain - Love or Hate?

    Random survey for the forum - do you love or hate rain? I had a conversation with couple guys at work last week, and it seems to be a common consensus - many people hate rain. It seems like almost anybody I ask, they can't stand rainy days. I was scared of bad storms as a kid. We got really bad...

    The AeroPress - is it a gimmick?

    I was at a new buddies house today. He's a touring musician who is a coffee roaster when he's not on the road. He knows my normal routine for coffee, as it's very similar to his - a Fellow Kettle into a ChemEx pour over. On weekends I do a French press with bolder blends. Well today he was...

    Older Guys: What are Your Thoughts?

    I'll start by saying I'm 30 years of age and have 3 kids - one being a new born. I recently switched jobs to work closer from home, but some mixed feelings have come with it. My last job made great money, but I commuted all over and was gone a good bit for this work. My new job makes quite a bit...

    As a Perique Lover, I Wish I Still Drank!

    Title edited for caps. Please read Rule 9! I gotta know, has anybody had this? It seems like it has so much potential to be either fantastic, or God awful. Either way, I thought this was an interesting choice of brown water. I also wonder how it would be for casing a blend, though I think I...

    Sutliff tins and Rust

    What is it about these tins that make them susceptible to rust? I've experienced it with Cringle Flake and Crumble Cake (Red VA) - neither older than 3 years. It seems somewhat of a consistent issued based on old threads and other people I've talked to with similar experiences. It also seems to...

    I guess they are doing a CRF release this year

    I thought I remembered a user here emailing C&D and getting a reply saying they wouldn't be releasing Carolina Red Flake this year. Anyways, release is Sept 7 for all you small batch lovers. Go get em.

    Finally put my Whole Leaf and Blending Tobacco to Use.

    Finally got off my ass. I used to experiment with home blending a good bit. Then got lazy and just smoked blends off my shelf. Well recently my wife and kids went out of town for a week so while I was home alone I pulled out some whole leaf and bulk blending tobaccos and made some small batches...

    Keeping Tobacco in Paint Can Tins?

    Title edited for caps and brevity. See rule 9. Curious what y'alls experience with this type of tin is, and how long you've kept tobacco in them. We're there any issues ever? Trying to decide if I should transfer to jars or if it's safe to leave them tinned. I have about 10 LJ Peretti 8oz paint...

    Yet Another Jason Patrick - This Time, a Bent Egg.

    Decided to change things up a little with this one. I mostly get lovats from Jason. He's currently working on a couple short lovats with an ivorite band for me - the Former's style. With this one, I mentioned a bent egg and a cumberland stem and he came up with this. Beyond pleased with the...

    New Commision from a Newer Pipe Maker : Casanova Pipes (Romain)

    I think he's under some great guidance and on the right track to being a fantastic pipe maker. He's originally from France but now lives in Florida. Great guy to work with. He nailed my specifications and made it better than I could've imagined. Glad to support a young and talented new...

    My Third Jason Patrick Commision. A Pencil Shank Stack with Green Cumberland Stem.

    Im a big fan of his work, especially after smoking my first commission- a lovat. He nailed every dimension to perfection, with a nice open airway. Just an incredible smoker. Same with my 2nd lovat commission. I could buy 10 more lovats from him and be happy never buying another pipe (not...
