    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    Thank you for your response Jim. I know you're a busy man with your art work. I was a huge Middleton fan too. I was a teen in the middle and late 80s and used to love the aromas from the pouches and box's of pipe tobaccos. I would buy a few different blends and a corn cob pipe from the corner...

    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    Hi Jim. Beautiful pipe by the way. I actually like all the pipes you post. I have a question. Do you like Sutliff Edgeworth match better than Lane Limited Ready Rubbed? Because I like the Lane's better. Before it was discontinued I stocked up on a half case of tubs. I put a few in deep cellaring...

    Not a smoking room, but the closest I have...

    Mine gave in after I showed her that it doesn't smell as long as I sit near the window with the fan in it. I'm lucky though, my wife buys me pipes and my tobacco. On father's day she bought me a Rossi Sera 8601 a half pound of Gawith Hoggarth Rum Flake and a half pound of Coniston Cut Plug. For...

    Dentist

    If a dentist is true to his or her profession they will tell you the REAL truth. There is absolutely zero proof that pipe smoking or cigar smoking causes mouth cancer, zero. This is government propaganda. There is a dentist and a oral surgeon that said this. They both said that this is a known...

    I used to really like Model match when I smoked mainly burleys. Flying Dutchman match is pretty good too.

    Peterson question

    I get two types of cleaners. I get the BJ Longs regular 6inch and 7inch and the tapered. The regular BJ Longs go through a P-Lip perfectly. The tapered I use for the shank only. If you get the cheap fluffy pipe cleaners they won't fit.

    Not a smoking room, but the closest I have...

    That is a very nice cozy looking study. You have a window right next to your chair too! Look, when I smoked cigarettes I didn't smoke in my house. When my wife and I first got married we smoked in our apartment. When we bought our house we smoked on our porch, never in the house. We sold our...

    What Are You Smoking Pages.

    A dental surgeon had a video on YouTube about this. He and his friend who is a dentist both said that pipe smoking and cigar smoking does not cause mouth, throat, tongue or gum cancer. He said there is zero evidence despite what the government says. He said they are full of crap. He said that...

    Country Squire

    Yeah Ranger, they are mine as well. I didn't like C-D blends at first because they were too cigarettey to me, but I really like Pegasus and Winchester as well as Evening Hours Flake and Gentleman's Caller. But when I got my hands on Cowboy Coffee and Hunting Creek, that was it for me. Then I...

    Country Squire

    I'm wondering if Jon will re-release that blend that was taken off their list because of that issue with the collaborator and someone from Canada getting in a tiff. I am a huge County Squire tobacco fan and I really wanted to try that blend. Cowboy Coffee, Ruins Of Windsor, Hunting Creek and...

    Yeah the match doesn't burn the tongue like the original stuff, but how nice it would be to have the original come back into production. It would be great with a 6mm charcoal filter or a 9mm.

    Leather Pipes?

    I've never in my life heard or read about leather pipes. Leather wrapped yes, but the whole thing just being leather, I don't think it would be possible without the whole pipe going up in flames.

    Pipe tobacco and mosquitos

    When I used to trout fish a lot standing in the creeks with hip boots I would smoke cheap drugstore cigars like Swisher Sweets or Hava-Tampa Sweet Tips and even Avanti anisette stogies. They kept the skeeters away and the flying gnats. My fishing and hunter buddy would just bring chew like...

    Post smoker from NJ

    I smoked cigarettes since I was 14. In the mid 90s I smoked cheap store cigars too, like Swisher Sweets and AVANTI. In the early 2000s I dabbled with pipes but after a pipe had to smoke a cigarette. I quit smoking cigarettes cold turkey as well. After a few years I got interested in pipes again...

    Carter Hall Issues

    Correct, yes they are both made in the Dominican. I happen to still like Prince Albert which was my everyday all day smoke for about 8 years. I still have a few tubs of the King Of Prussia USA made stuff that I have deep cellared. I bought 4 tubs of the Dominican made from a buddy who owns a...

    Carter Hall Issues

    I've said this from the beginning. Ever since John Middleton sent production down to the Dominican Republic Carter Hall went to crap. Prince Albert is still fantastic though. I friend bought 4 tubs of Carter Hall after it returned after disappearing for a year. He sent me a sample because he...

    Reducing indoor smell/staining

    I smoke my pipe right in the living room. The edge of the couch where I always sit has a window about 2 inches away. I put a box fan in the window and crack the window about 3 inches and the smoke gets sucked right out. Once in a while when my son wants to smell the smoke I'll turn the fan off...

    I had my eye on that! I'm going to wait until my birthday to order that. My wife ordered me a few Gawith Hoggarth blends to last me a good while for Father's Day. I really like Rum Flake and Coniston Cut Plug.
