    VELVET

    SWR (regular and aromatic), Paladin, and Velvet didn't it do it for me, which is weird because I fell in love with Half-Half the first time I opened the pouch. Maybe I would be saying the same thing about Velvet or, god forbid, Paladin if I had tried those first instead. I mix Half-Half with...

    IPSD, PAD & TAD

    Happy ISPD! I also placed some orders over the weekend thanks to the sales. My first time ordering through 4noggins and it is supposed to be getting here tomorrow, which if true, makes it the quickest I have received an order, by almost a week lol!

    Hello

    Welcome from the western states James! I never got a chance to try the original BSOSM, but I'm also looking for the perfect Balkan mixture. I found white knight underwhelming too, but you never know till you try it.

    Schwab's or Straus Blends

    Your picture of that pamphlet sure makes me wish there was an actual tobaconist somewhere in my state. I have a buddy in Kentucky I'm trying to get into pipe smoking so he'll send me some blends lol.

    Snuff Mull

    This one popped up on my eBay recommendations a day or two ago. Probably because I was looking for tobacco jars recently. It's gorgeous so it definitely grabbed my attention (I said the same thing to my wife, but she didn't appreciate it). After looking at similar prices and then my bank...

    What movie are you watching?

    Amazon Prime just added a whole bunch of classic and spaghetti westerns, so I know what I'm watching for the foreseeable future! I'm starting with El Dorado and then I'll probably work my way through the man with no name trilogy.

    Chewing tobacco twists fir smoking

    God bless it.... I wrote a multiple paragraph review detailing my experience smoking that plug of days o' work, so of course it deleted itself when I tried to post it on my phone... so quick recap, it was strong, had a faint but sometimes harsh taste of raisin and molasses, was not unpleasant...

    Chewing tobacco twists fir smoking

    I have looked into this before and I would be interested to see where you get some swede because I havent found any online or locally. Like zeno, I chewed my share of redman and have looked for a smoke that had a similiar mouth wateringly sweet raisin taste. My grandfather used to chew...

    Would love to see a picture of that custom-bilt! They made some really cool pipes.

    They definitely cool the smoke down. I smoke outside and can't use it when it's too cold out because the smoke ends up being room temperature and flavorless by the time it gets to you lol! That probably doesn't sound too bad to you with that roasted tongue though!

    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    Spent 3 hours cleaning our fridge yesterday and it's running so much better and quieter. First time cleaning one with the condenser on the bottom though and it is such a pain! It's impossible to access 80% of the coils, even after I pulled out the condenser fan and anything else that came across...

    Sunny and 45 (feels like 80!) hopefully we get an early spring because this has been one of the longest and coldest winters I can remember. Small Van Roy Dublin that I just finished restoring, loaded up with one of my own mixes. Red Virginia, green river cavendish, Smyrna, with 25% latakia and a...

    I'll have to give old Joe Kranz a try, half way through this first tin and I find nightcap to be much stronger than RY so far.

    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    A wet and dreary morning here out west. Headed out to the ranch for a late breakfast with the family so I needed something sweet to wake my appetite up and something strong to wake me up! 1:1 Lane amaretto and royal yacht in a yello-bole bulldog. Have a good Sunday everyone!

    Am I the only one bothered by poorly balanced pipes?

    This is a forum about brotherhood and mutual respect, it is full of levelheaded and jovial conversations among friends. I suggested you had a unique mental quirk about pipes because as you yourself pointed out multiple times, no one else has this problem to such a degree. I apologize because I...

    Am I the only one bothered by poorly balanced pipes?

    I would wonder where you're getting them from, I know the main manufacturers have varrying QC but 85% is enough to rule that out. Almost sounds like you're getting seconds or thirds passed off as the real deal. Some pipe brands are just the less desirable pipes from a big name like peterson or...

    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    Must be something in the air, I just lit up a bowl of SPC plum pudding, in its dedicated bent billiard. Usually I wait until after dinner before I switch to the latakia blends but the weather changed my mind. On a side note, I seem to have developed a singular taste for balkans after smoking...
