    What Are You Drinking? July 2024

    One of my drinking buddies gave me this bourbon cask whisky 2 weeks ago. We were having a small party at the bar. He told me that this is the worst whisky he ever had, but I enjoyed the sweet and woody taste very much. He said "It's yours now. Please help me terminate this thing!" The taste of...

    Zippo Butane Pipe Lighter Insert

    I purchased a Zippo butane pipe lighter insert today. It functions just like a regular lighter. You need to hold the striker down. The flame comes from the side, preventing it from heating the spark wheel or burning your fingers. Additionally, it doesn't have the unpleasant smell associated...

    Meerschaum pipes

    You could find cheap and beautiful common meers from Turkish seller on Etsy or Facebook. A custom-made meer cost more than a common meer, but you can get the meer of your dream. I bought my custom-made dragon claw from kocmeerschaum on Etsy. It's a great deal.

    Oldest Smoked Tobacco...

    Royal Jersey cavendish from 2005. I opened it in 2023. It sealed so tight that I had to break the lid. The tobacco remained moist and smelled of soy sauce. The flavor is very rich and deep. I enjoy it very much. The remaining half was given to my friend.

    Smoking The Bent Egg Shape

    You should check the inside diameter and depth of the bowl before you buy it. The shape of the pipe has a greater impact on the feeling of holding it inside your hand than smoking experience and clenching. I am sure there will be a pipe fits you perfectly.

    What does "K" markings mean on castello smooth pipes?

    Like the my Ser jacopo pipes. I got a la pipaccia 14 + a calumet without grading. However, they have better grains than my L2 luciano. The grading markings to me is much more like Pokémon. Gotta catch them all.

    What does "K" markings mean on castello smooth pipes?

    Hello everyone. I've been seraching the Interent for a while. Trying to figure out the ,meaning of letter "K" stamped on castello pipes. Everybody say that "K" is used for non-smooth pipes to designate size. More K's means bigger pipe. But, there are two explanations for smooth finish pipes...

    Smoking Briar vs Meerschaum Pipes

    I would say, if your finances permit, try using both materials. Every time you use it alternately, they will give you different feelings. Even if you have smoked the same pipe hundreds of times. Once you go back to it again after smoking other pipes, you will discover something new that you...

    Ser Jacopo Calumet Obsession

    My first thought after seeing the post was:"Is this a scam?" Good thing that the seller lives in the county next to me, so I asked her out for a face to face transition, and the pipe is legit. What a wonderful world.

    Getting Back to Pipes after Cigars - Advice?

    You also need a tamper and a pipe lighter for your pipe. You might damage your pipe using a torch lighter to lit. I would smoke pipe and cigar simultaneously, feeling the difference and synergy of their tastes. You can smoke your pipe first. If you encounter any questions, post it on the forum.
