    P&T Magazine Summer 2013 Issue is a Travesty

    Interesting thread. I wonder now how many featured pipemakers (feature article, such as Joe) had their work on the front cover of the magazine? If the usual approach is to put the featured pipemaker and/or his pipes on the cover then if I were Joe (who is a personal friend) I'd be a bit...

    Three Nuns VaPer Return?

    EMail has been sent to Sutliffe, and I want to post here my support of the release of EGR in a smaller packet or tin, the release of the current 3 Nuns, but most enthusiastically my support for a Virginia/Perique original recipe version of 3 Nuns. The sales will be impressive, no doubt...

    Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend

    Thats a great little anecdote, and a classy gesture from the rep too. Glad that your endorsement of this blend has garnered you a bit of tobacco! I've debated trying EGR and I'm curious about it, but having to buy a tub of it to try it is not going to happen. Enjoy your smokes! (and an "attaboy"...

    Starbucks Smoking Ban

    I will now stop using any Starbucks products, and will not under any circumstances stop at one. If they don't want me there then I will oblige them.... Randy PS - I use their coffee regularly. Sorry, USED to use their coffee regularly. Just about had it with rediculous edicts from the New...

    Escudo Discontinued?

    Greetings all While watching new auctions go up on Ebay earlier today ( I always pay especially close attention to the offerings of a few folks, in particular Pipestud) I saw a tin of Escudo (A&C) posted by Pipestud, and on reading the description he noted that Stokkebye has decided to...

    BJ Long Company Has Robbed Us

    FYI - I didn't copy and paste the email I sent prior to the one above, but it had this site's addy and also one to ASP, Brothers of the Briar, etc. My point to them is that we are out here, we are accessible, and no one bothered. The previous email to them was shorter, but not terse...

    BJ Long Company Has Robbed Us

    Sumitted to them a minute ago. Thank you for the information (damn!) and the link. Randy Dear Sir or Madam, I have been a pipe smoker for 39 years now, and I've been around long enough to see a lot of things change, some good, some not so good. I'm writing to you to relate a change that I just...

    Remembering Back, Shout Out for Chief Catoonah

    First pipe was a Peterson 150 smooth, and my first tobacco was possibly Captain Black, like many of us. I moved onto other types of tobacco, but just recently started an "Aromatic Adventure", buying an ounce of about 30 different offerings just to see what's out there in the aromatic world. One...

    PS Luxury Bullseye Flake

    Just tried this tobacco 2 days ago for the first time, sample was about 4 years old. I've been exchanging tobaccos with a friend on another forum and I have to agree with you - it's a really nice smoke and when you factor in the cost it's a great bargain! Enjoy (I know I am!) Randy

    Look What I Got!

    One more thing...that sure has enough age on it to have mellowed the blend! If that's from '05 then we need to get you some fresh so you can compare it! PM me and we'll get it done! Randy

    Look What I Got!

    ROTHNH : "Penzance will not improve with age, in fact some say it's much better fresh. So if you're thinking of "saving" it with the hope it will get better, it won't. " With all due respect, the matter of whether the blend improves with age is a subjective one, as it is a matter of ones'...
