I appreciate the direction folks. I will be doing some or all of the mentioned things.

Thanks guys. I guess my question was poorly articulated, I saw that there were some matches, and was interested in peoples experience with how they stack up to the originals. I will give some of them a shot, and see for myself and report back!

Gentlemen, I had walked away from serious pipe smoking for a year or two, I still smoked once in a while, and never lost my love for the leaf. That being said, I have been smoking a lot more lately, and my stock is running a little thin. Upon looking for some of my favorites, I have found...

Thanks very much folks. Time to dust off some pipes and get back to puffing.

Hello all. I was a pretty frequent lurker, and seldom poster a couple years ago. Got busy with life and fell away from the site for a while. I guess I am just making my return announcement, and can't wait to hear what you all have to say. Cheers!

Mr. Burley, All I can say about that is, you are more man than I. Every time I tried it, near instant regret

Eating before is a must for me on a cigar. as is the sweet drink, the previous poster nailed it. When I burn a stick, I usually do it after lunch on a weekend, and drink a Dr. Pepper of all things along with it. As with pipe smoking taking your time is a must as well. I will spend upwards of...

Hey folks, I have a pipe that I use mostly for fishing, and it had a very glossy finish on it when purchased. I didn't give a lot for it, so its not heartbreaking. anyway, that glossy finish is beginning (has long since begun truthfully) to chip off, and it looks pretty shabby. My question...

I feel your pain Brewdude, I live in Tacoma, and like to smoke outside sometimes. the accusatory looks, people give you when your harmlessly puffing a pipe on the sidewalk somewhere. You would think you spat in their faces. We have a pretty good collection of antique shops here in grit-city...

Sounds interesting. Do you think it tastes/smells chemical. I have had some aros in the past (CAO) that had a very un-natural chemical smell to them...not good.

Along the lines of others, a Lat blend does it for me. Naturally since we are talking about an evening blend, Nightcap, Nightcap and, did I mention NIGHTCAP? I just love this stuff, it is relatively new to me, but man-o-man does it toot my horn!

Probably has already been mentioned but the Savinelli 114KS fits that bill as well and i believe comes in a couple of different finishes, the one I like being the Marron Glace, the little brother of which (207) I already own and love!

Anybody else live in this area and know abou this? I sometimes sit in the park across the street from my apt and read and smoke. Apparently i have been breaking the law this whole time! :fpalm: This is rediculous, first businesses, now parks, next thing you know you wont be able to smoke on...

I would love to have a few more, I am a relatively new pipe smoker, newly venturing out of aros for the first time. I have a few on my to buy list, as the budget allows. I have my eye on a couple different Savs right now.

Ron, I have fewer than 7. three briars, and 2 cobs that i smoke regularly. and that is all she wrote.
