Hi everyone,

Nice to e-meet all of you. I've had my late dad's Dunhill pipe for a long time but never smoked it until recently. I smoke maybe 10 cigars a year (Partagas D4).

For some reason, I decided to clean the pipe and smoke a bowl. Used Captain Black White since I always liked the smell and it was very pleasurable: it calmed me down and it was much less tobacco than a cigar which suits me well.

Posted a note on the Reddit pipe forum for tobacco suggestions and basically everyone said that ANYTHING is better than Captain Black...There were also suggestions.

I should be getting 7 Seas and Peterson Flake tomorrow and will report back.

Cordially,

Ian Hacobian, San Francisco CA

Welcome from Argentina.
If you like Captain Bñack it's ok. Don't be shame .
I'm a fan of classic and OTC tobaccos.

Welcome from a former San Franciscan!

Please put your location in your Profile, as people are forgetful.
Why:
That will save questions in the future as to where you live when you later mention local stores, weather, tobacco prices, availability, regulations, location of photos, wildfires, air quality, etc. In many instances that saves time for those who read your posts. It cuts down on posts or PMs asking where you are.
How:
Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down. Whatever you're comfortable with- town, city, county, state. province, etc.

Sorry accidently deleted part of your post. But 7 seas is a great suggestion it's a better done imitation of captain black. I think it's a great line.

I remember the tins but I don't recall the smells. There was Bond Street and a white tin: Mixture 79. He used to cut potatoes and put them in the tin of Mixture 79.

Howdy and welcome from Idaho. So awesome that you have a pipe from your father!
You’ll find lots of great advice here on the forum. On occasion they’ll be some verbal jousting, bantering and fun to be had as well.
Enjoy-
