Well, as promised, here is my first review of their english blend. 'Balkan blend'... very imaginatively named, was one of there 'english' bleands. first, i get a wofff of smoky fire, very similar to MM965, but with a deep scent. colour is over-all alittle dark, maybe less VA then i remeber in...

Oki, so i had a puff on the VA.... (jsut to say, i have only had one sample of a VA flake not too long ago, that was my first stright VA, and flake, so thats is all i have to go off thus far) its was their in house blend 'Luxury Virginia'... scent was fresh and crispish, not too dis-similar to...

Hello... I went to London (UK) to day and visted a little shop 'Segar and snuff' in Covent garden. After waiting for 20 min while some Germans where faffing about with a cigar cutter and something (while i was just looking at the different pipe eta..) i bought some new Baccy! so first off...

"Just take it slow and enjoy" lol i was rather enjoying the light headiness! haha... but i hear some people sick too! which i didnt. anyway, a VA flake will be my next Tobbacco next month! :) Ta

Howdee all... A review or rant, don’t know yet! A quick low-down..So, still newish i guess, into to pipe smoking. Apart from a few samples, i have only bought 3 tins in smoking life.... Dunhill MM956, Dunhill EMP, and Peterson's connoisseurs choice. I have 3 pipes, a cob, petersons straight...

Silly question from a new pipe'er... but do you just let it mature in the tin? or do you put it in to a sealed jar to mature?

Howdee, quick question... As a stright VA, and Flake Virgin... Iv been eye'ing up Dunhill Flake. as i understand it, it being a VA flake. Would it be suggestable to try this first? as an intro to both worlds? (2birds with 1 stone, as it were)

Yay... i started a lively thread! :) Some very interesting posts here, so thanks for everyone so far! as i am new, i can clearly see i need to try a few more different types. I had a 5gr sample of a choc flake (my first and only flake) and i think i failed!! so flakes...god knows where to...

Gday everyone. Im still kinda new to the pipe smoking world, but i am interested in what other types peoeple smoke, when? Ie, * would you pick up one or several english blends and smoke them all day/everyday? * Or would you maybe smoke english's in the mornings/during the day, and have an...

well, as this is my 2nd pipe, i dont have a gr8 deal to go with (only to compare with my cob and RoC '999) but i can say its lovly! From what i 'think' i know about the bent systems, yes sorry this is a peterson system 31, the metel stem go passed the hole?? so the smoke travels around it and...

A little bit of pipe porn for you guys, i know you like a sexy pic now and again. My new System 31, and my first tin (which i put in a jar) of EMP. im thinking of keeping one jar for EMP, and 1 for 965, both my fav english blends thus far

This is my new little beauty!! :) thanks for all the advice. this is going to be my English pipe. And since i am always talked out of buying EMP to buy somthing else, i had to finaly buy a tin! and what a lovly smoke it is too! :) And i got a couple of black bites, and although this has a...

I have gone to buy my first tin of EMP, 2-3 times now, and i always get pointed to somthing different. i was pointed to 965 the first time, and like it very muchly. how does EMP and LM compair to 965? im still new, and not tried them, but opening 965 was lovly, just such a smoky and peaty smell...

how do people rate Butz Choquin pipes? (alittle more affordable!) Butz Choquin Cadre Noir - Shape No.1601   looks kind of classy! :)

Well thank you all!! by all the responces, i guess i cant go wrong with any of them. tbh, a billard style is.. mhe... as long as its a stright and a bit more traditional i guess. Hopfully it will be slightly lighter then my 999 rock, as i do like to chomp it alittle and keep it hanging  (i...
