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

    First ever bowl of EMP in my Meerschaum. So far I don’t get what all the hubbub is about. Tastes like Presbyterian Mixture with all the flavor taken out of it. Maybe it’ll improve in the middle of the bowl or something.

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

    Never heard of this pipe but I love everything about it. EDIT: I can’t find a single one for sale online. Probably means I can’t afford it 😆

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

    Got a couple new blends in the mail today. Never tried these two so I’m going to try and have a bowl of each tonight. Escudo is going in my Savinelli 106. I’ll probably smoke the EMP in my Meerschaum.

    How to Prepare Flake Pipe Tobacco

    I just crumble it between my fingers. Works well enough puffy

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

    Another bowl in my new Meerschaum. Last try for C&D Autumn Evening before I decide to get rid of it or not. Wasn’t feeling it a year ago so let’s see if it’s mellowed out at all EDIT: The flavor is bitter and disgusting. Into the bin with ye. Loaded up a half bowl of 507C and Presbyterian...

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

    507C in this neat little unsmoked ‘70s meer I found on EBay. It waited ~50 years for its first smoke. I’d say it’s doing a pretty good job considering

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

    Sutliff 507C in a Missouri Meerschaum while I let my Savinelli rest. The MM is a nice pipe but man this sucker gets hot. Interesting note on the 507C. I bought it about a year ago as my first pure Virginia and then stopped smoking right after that. So due to me not smoking a pipe for a long...

    Moving From English Blends to Pure Virginias

    Thanks for the responses. Sounds like I need to spend some more time with this blend and others. Any recommendations for a straight Virginia with a bit more complexity than 507C? I’m wondering if my problem is compounded by this also being my first time smoking out of a corn cob pipe. I’m not...

    Moving From English Blends to Pure Virginias

    I’ve recently returned to pipe smoking after a long hiatus. Both times I’ve been into it I’ve exclusively smoked English blends, so I’m trying to branch out a bit and see what I might have been missing. I ordered some Cornell & Diehl Autumn Evening as a first aromatic blend and some Sutliff...

    Best "Bulk" Navy Flake/Straight VA Flake

    So I gave it a shot in a brand new corn cob. I enjoyed it but found it… VERY light. I came back inside and I feel like my hands and clothes smell like I just smoked a hand rolled cigarette lol. It’s very different from what I was expecting. It resembled a cigarette so much that I felt weird...

    Thanks for the info doc! You accept Cigna right? Can you try to bill my insurance first before you send me a bill? 😆

    Best "Bulk" Navy Flake/Straight VA Flake

    A bag of that just got delivered today. It will be my first straight Virginia. Thus far I’ve only had it in English Blends. Pretty stoked :sher:

    Opinion about a YouTuber

    +1 Stuff and Things. He’s one of the only guys on YouTube doing pipe content that doesn’t come across like an old stuffy preacher (some of them don’t just come across that way they literally are stuffy preachers) Don’t get me started on the whole wannabe plantation owner “pipe smokers must...

    Opinion about a YouTuber

    Ha man i feel just as contemplative smoking my pipe and listening to death metal, punk, electronic music, etc. To each his own. I’m with you on avoiding scrolling on Instagram or whatever.

    ISO Great Tobacco

    Try not to be put off by how sweet the tin note is on Autumn Evening. It mellows over time, and it’s nowhere near that sweet once it’s actually being smoked. I find the tin smells like an extra sweet stack of pancakes, which is lovely of course, but if it tasted like that it would be too much...

    ISO Great Tobacco

    I quite like Cornell & Diehl Autumn Evening. It’s an aromatic, but not cloying like some others I’ve tried. It has a very very subtle maple note while you smoke it. I’d say 90% smell and 10% taste, so it rewards an occasional retrohale, but it still tastes like tobacco. I’d suggest drying it...
