Seeking Assistance in Selecting a Free-Standing Poker.
Not sure if a meerschaum is what you’re looking for but I picked one of these up a while back. It’s incredibly light & at a decent price point. Check out MBSD or Heritage pipe shop on eBay. They both have a smooth version as well. I will say the pipe doesn’t sit properly if it’s not loaded... -

Wasting Money On Tobacco!!
I just “wasted” some coin on WCC when Rouxgaroux dropped on the 1st. I got 2oz of Rouxgaroux, Old Dominion, & Churchwarden. I gotta say, I’ll waste more on them in the future- Indygrap

The Beast Has Been Tamed
I noticed that the tin note on this release was less barnyard/manure than the ‘23. It seems a little more balanced & not as moist as well. I wish I’d gotten more of the ‘23 to do a side-by-side comparison. ‘25 is not bad out of the tin, & neither was the ‘23, but I recall it really coming into...- Indygrap

RIP Lady Fire
I follow him on Instagram but haven’t watched their channel. I know she was typically by his side when recording videos. It has to be devastating. I hope that peace & comfort find him & all that will miss her.- Indygrap

Eat The Invaders ! Invitation to Eat Invasive Species to Save Environment ...
I’ve had wild hog. A cattle rancher had a bunch on his property & there isn’t a season or limit, as they’re invasive. He’d bring one by every so often. They were field dressed but I’d have to skin them. As luck would have it, the bbq restaurant attached to our brewery would smoke them for us...- Indygrap

Best Country Squire Blends
I haven’t had a lot of their blends, but can attest to the above comments. I picked up a blend called Toadstool that isn’t listed on their site(our pipe club we up there last July). I believe it’s a Scottish blend. Va, Latakia, Perique that they can probably blend up for you, if you ask. I say...- Indygrap

Mellowest Unflavored Burley Blends?
Like you, burley bothered my throat. I say “bothered”, in past tense because I’ve apparently grown out of it(?). You aren’t the only one I’ve know with this issue. It’s odd but now I rarely experience irritation. I’ve worked a few burleys into my rotation that it looks like you’ve tried, so...- Indygrap

Who knows of this pipe hero?
Dude! As the author said: “…even if only 15% of this is true..,” it’s still impressive. Vive la résistance!- Indygrap

Are VaBurPers a thing?
C&D Burley #1 is pretty tasty. I had a tin a while back but I think I was hoping for a little more Perique. I’m smoking 3 Friars off & on now & I’m enjoying it. I’ve been dipping my toe into burley & trying to see what all the fuss is about. I find I like it as a component more than just on its...- Indygrap

What is your "grab & go" tobacco?
John Marr, Poplar Camp, & Pegasus are my grab n go blends. All ribbon cut, all available in bulk, no aging needed, but it won’t hurt to have a little age on them.- Indygrap

Salmon
We have a lot of good fishing on the Gulf coast & bayous, but no salmon 😢. When I get some, it’s usually farm raised & nothing like I had access to in the Pacific Northwest. That being said, my favorite way to cook store bought fillets is as follows: Coat with sesame oil, salt & pepper, get...- Indygrap

A Trip to New Orleans
Glad you had a great time & were able to enjoy the amazing food down here. The pipe club meets the 3rd Thursday of every month, but if your next trip doesn’t coincide with that, DM the club page on fb & one of us can probably meet you for a smoke.- Indygrap

Any Homebrewers Around?
I used to home brew & now do it professionally. I still have my set up, but haven’t used it lately because the house we’re in doesn’t have a 220v outlet. My kegerator died a while back as well & I loathe bottling. Good for you making a Christmas beer for your family to enjoy! I love when you...- Indygrap

Looking for a New Knife
I lost my pocket knife, a gifted Gerber, & I’m looking to upgrade a little. The Gerber was fairly cheap & didn’t hold an edge, but it was trim & was fine for most things. I’m debating on whether I want a single blade that clips in my pocket or one with a few more blades that I can use for...- Indygrap

Dark Fired Kentucky
A couple of great blends featuring DFK: GL Pease-Six Pence & Montgomery. SP is a much bolder blend, while Montgomery is more sweet & bright. Macbarren: Dark Twist Roll Cake & HH Old Dark Fired. DT is VA coins & VA/DFK coins. For every 2 VA coins, they add 1 of the VA/DFK. They’re topped with...- Indygrap

Marxman badge
I just acquired this sexy Marxman Jumbo. Any idea where I can find a replacement badge/logo? Additionally, if @Briar Lee or any other resident Marxman scholar wants to take me to school about this beauty’s history, I’m all ears. Thanks!- Indygrap

Need Enlightenment on "Black Frigate" tobacco.
If you feel like buying bulk & can get it shipped to you, I’ve found C&D’s Poplar Camp to be more to my tastes than Bayou Morning. Mountain Camp is pretty fantastic as well. It’s supposed to be Bayou Night with the proportions of the Perique & Lat reversed, so it more Lat forward. +1 for Joie de...- Indygrap

Zippo Pipe Lighters...Opinions Please!
I’ve almost always had a Zippo in my pocket since I was 15. Reliable, durable, affordable, & iconic. I keep a Bic handy for when I neglect to fill it, but otherwise it’s all I use. It’s a good idea to let the flame burn off the vapor before putting it to your tobacco, but they simply can not be...- Indygrap
