Granger, Anyone?

No, but what a marvelous idea!!

Real Codger Stuff.. Viewer Discretion Is Advised. :: General Pipe Smoking Discussion

Am I the only one who stores a dedicated briar inside of a tub? My GRANGER pipes live their lives bathed in GRANGER, absorbing all of that rich tobacco and always emerge sweet smelling and ready for my next smoke. Mind you, I thoroughly clean my pipes each morning and I ONLY smoke in the...

Apparently I need to meet this Grangerous fella.

DAD! Is that you???

 

[highwaycobbery]

No, but what a marvelous idea!!

Oh lord. Y’all be best friends. Lol

 

[highwaycobbery]

Here we go.

 

[Captain Granger]

DAD! Is that you???

Ha! No sir. I'm 43 and have no kids, as far as I know.

Welcome from central N.C. I love your city; for me, the sun always shone, and Mt. Rainer rose like the moon, and I'd take the ferry out to Bremerton. My dad smoked a pipe for fifty years, quit at 65 to take a campus no-smoking job, and departed at 89 licensed to drive without glasses. He was a minesweeper skipper in WWII, puffing his pipe all the way. He never smoked anything but Granger from a pouch and owned only one pipe at a time until it burnt out and split its bowl. I keep a tub around in case of a tobacco shortage or if I want some along the way.

Captain Granger, Sir

Thoughts on Captain Black?

Based on Grangerous' previous recommendations, I ordered a tin of Granger. Hasn't arrived yet. And it wasn't easy to find. No vender in St. Louis sells it, as far as I can tell (not even Jon's Pipe Shop, which, for those who know St. Louis, is the absolute mecca for all things pipery). Found it online but it was mostly sold out everywhere. This is either a testament to how much it is loved, or to how much Captain Granger and Grangerous must horde it.

I am now more than a little excited to try this stuff.

 

[highwaycobbery]

I buy it all up. I use it for cat litter. I’ve got four cats. Need a lot of granger.

Side note: I am quite perplexed by the reviews of Granger. Seems like half call it an aromatic, the other half says it is not. This is puzzling to me. In my experience, I know an aromatic when I smoke it. There is no ambivalence about it. A tobacco is either aromatic, or it isn't. So what's up with this Granger stuff that seems to divide the reviewers into halvsies on what should be a cut and dry assessment?

I admit, I stockpile it when I can.

I find of works well for the hamster cage as well!

Thoughts on Captain Black?

Sickly Sweet Marshmallow Vanilla Candy and theee last flavor I ever want to exit either end of a pipe. It’s the Devil’s Urine.

A lot of guys love CB with a passion. There’s nothing wrong with that. 1Q and BCA and Vanilla Cavendish are the favorites of many. But I can’t smoke these.

Just as there are many that can’t taste anything but harsh cigarette ash in Burley.

We’re all different.

I too cannot abide it. Too much Cavendish.
