    Drying Tobacco

    I'll put a whole tin's contents into a jar and leave the lid off (or slightly askew) until the tobacco is crispy on top. Might take a day or three depending. (A piece of paper towel over the top can help keep out any dust, spores etc.) Then I seal it and leave it for a week or so, to let the...

    Oldest Smoked Tobacco...

    I have a jar of McClelland No. 24 Matured Virginia from 2001 that I dip into occasionally. Purchased from Pipestud. It is EXCELLENT.

    Oh! The Humanity! Broken Jar!

    Yep. I've done that. I probably wouldn't have sweated the glass shards, but when that happened to me (on a couple occasions) the tobacco was full of dust and dog hair off the basement floor. One was a jar of Burley Flake #3, which I mostly salvaged, but the latest (a jar of Royal Yacht) went...

    Attack Of The Clones (Part 1)

    I enjoyed last year's cutty madness. Looking forward to see these commissions. Thanks for sharing as always. Even though you changed your signature, as far as I'm concerned, you're still the enabler in chief! Maybe the pope of pipe porn. :ROFLMAO:

    Dunhill Shells

    Yep. I was going to mention Mitakidis because I recently got one of his pipes and it has the sharpest, craggiest blast I've ever put my fingers on, and a very simple, classic shape. Of course there are other contemporary artisans who produce similar quality blasts, but one day I'd still like...

    Canada Pipe Tobacco Question

    One of the owners of a B&M told me about whole leaf. These guys know, in Canada...forget about it. They stay in business because of out-of-towners here on business looking for a cigar, and now, they have a smoking lounge, and make money selling booze. But the first time I went there and spent...

    Canada Pipe Tobacco Question

    In my experience, when you get slapped with duty, taxes and fees, it works out to as high as $1 per gram, which is how much my local B&M charges for bulk, so on 100 tins, that could be as much as $5000.00... (minus the 4 tin exemption if you spend more than 7 days in the U.S.) I say again...

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2024?***

    Dark Birdseye in the Mitakidis Belge. This pipe seems made for this blend for some reason. I'm getting more flavour out of it than I ever have.
