    Are All Butane Brands Basically the Same?

    Several times I had to buy cheap butane mainly because I needed to fill my lighter and was in a place that doesn't have any better ones. All of these times ended in having problems such as that the bottle didn't have enough gas to fill the lighter or the nozzle broke as soon as I used and gas...

    Tropic smoke

    First of all I trust you in this and trust your experience in pipe smoking in general. However, after thinking about it more I rarely had the will or experience of smoking pipe in this kind of environment. That is the main reason that I lower my smoking time and bowls in summer specially if I am...

    Tropic smoke

    One i had an excellent bowl or two from a newly opened MB navy flake. Revisiting it the second day was one of the worst experiences of smoking for me since it tasted like a piece of coil burning in my mouth, and the rest of the box tasted the same. So I think some times the flavour or quality of...

    Too Many Pipes?

    I have around 45 which is more than needed according to my use. I always say that but can not resist the urge to pass by pipe section every time I go to buy tobacco or pass by a duty free in an airport. Things startsby telling myself why not to go there and check the new designs, then I start...

    What Is Your Favorite Aromatic?

    Peterson Christmas blend (always full of Christmas flavours and spirit). Surprisingly Holger danske black and bourbon is one of my favorite tobacco blends. It is both mild and full of flavour.

    My Pipe Smokes Too Hot!!

    Definitely tobacco is the reason; however, if you insist on the tobacco or packing method as rothnh just mentioned and according to my experience vauen pipes would do great job. Since they are4 not so expensive and really excellent heat resistant pipes.

    What Does Everyone Like to do While Smoking?

    Reading a book or a website on my tab, or just listening to music. Depends really on the mood and the place, so reading would occur more if i am smoking outdoor and listening to music or even watching TV would be in case if I smoked indoor.

    Changing Filters

    Most of the pipes in my collection are with filters. I strictly use vauen 9mm filter due to the good results I always get. Have only one savinelli with 6mm filter which I usually use balsa filter for. I only use non filtered pipes with English blends since they are not so moisturized. Usually I...

    How Many of You Smoke Indoors?

    Indoor in my office room at home, outdoor only in coffee shops ... I just love the quite smooth time sitting outside in my favourite coffee shop sipping my coffee, smoking my pipe and reading something or just watching people passing by. Usually the best time of the day.

    Why do Most of Us Want New Pipes/Tobacco at the WORST Possible Time?

    For me buying tobacco or pipes is inversely proportional with the amount of work i do. The more I work the less time I have to buy tobacco or even smoke it. Hence the more money I make the less I buy...

    Pipe Smoking in the Middle East

    I would say it is much easier to find tobacco in Dubai than Oman. Mainly you can expect Peterson and W.O.Larson. however, it will be in the range of 25-30 USD for the tin. MB is also available for a bit cheaper prices. In Dubai airport you can find also captain black for around 30 USD per box...

    Really sorry to hear that, hope you will have a chance to recover the rest of the flooded stuff. Wish you all the luck. Rothnh I think you are so right I started a new trip two days ago to Saudi Arabia expecting cool or relatively warm weather. To my surprise since I arrived here the...

    What Do You Do With Empty Tins?

    I just keep them in big cartoon boxes along with pipe boxes. Not sure what will do with them in the future but at least it is a good way to track my tobacco consumption... :-)

    How Much Tobacco do You Keep on Hand?
