Opening A Tin? Show Us!
Few things more satisfying than that rich almost catnippy rainbow of deep fig and hay smells that hit your olfactives upon opening aged virginias. I can hardly smoke anymore thanks to eye issues and I really miss opening tins weekly lol- Sethology12

Aging and Pricing Thoughts
Personally I actually sell tins that can still be acquired on major tobacco sites for LESS than they can be bought for now. Unless the product is sought after/our of production, I feel I personally must bear the burden of the possibility that what is within is dried out. Thus I usually sell for...- Sethology12

Breath Method
Never been able to master this method without inhaling the smoke a little more than I'm comfortable with. Seems nice and meditative in theory but in practice it feels harsher and I taste less.- Sethology12

How/What Beverages do You Pair with Your Pipe?
Always water. Anything else is gonna really muddle the flavor. Sometimes when I am getting tasteless bowls or cigars I drink a few swigs of water and suddenly the flavor bursts. Also nice because it cools the mouth down a little- Sethology12

Tinbids Experiences?
To be fair this is the case with ebay as well. The onus of risk is taken on by the user. At times you get amazing products for steals and sometimes you get gipped. Of course there is recourse for that sort of thing on ebay. But there are legitimate cases with pipe tobacco where despite being...- Sethology12

Flake Tabac Question
I'm the same way. Never been able to master smoking a tobacco anyway but rubbed out. It's hard enough at times to keep my pipe consistently lit just smoking a RR preparation. Folding and stuffing, cube cutting? I don't even bother lol but props to those who can manage it. I'm sure the depth of...- Sethology12

Smoking in the Wild...
I mean there are dishonest hacks in every single ideology. There are people who dedicate their lives to a pursuit. And there are others who simple orbit around the progress of others. There are evil people and virtuous people in every single interest group. I'm this regard environmentalists are...- Sethology12

Favorite Virginia Tobaccos?
I actually would be willing to send a sample baggy of my 40th anniversary if you wanted to try it. It's definitely unique. But after alot more time with pipe tobacco I've realized it's not as unbeatable as I was led to believe. For my tastes I often prefer capstan or union Square. But mcllelands...- Sethology12

Favorite Virginia Tobaccos?
Dang I did not expect to come back to the forum to see Jeremy reeves himself reassuring me! This has seriously assuaged my fears and corrected some fear mongering induced misconceptions about modern day tobacco processing. This is very much appreciated!- Sethology12

Smoking in the Wild...
Yuh know you can be an environmentalist without being fanatical. If you enjoy the wilds and the tobacco within it, it is your best interest to be a good steward of the earth. Doesn't mean you have to run oil moguls over with your tesla or whatever you think self proclaimed environmentalists do 😆- Sethology12

Bright Virginias: Cigarette Like?
I mean virginias are used heavy handedly in many cigs. You may just have to learn to appreciate them on their own merits or accept your aversion- Sethology12

Jim's C&D Carolina Red Flake 2022 Review.
