    General Wintergreen Snus&new General Green Harvest organic

    A wicked case of tonsillitis has kept my briars on the rack for a week or so, and I decided to grab one of my brothers General wintergreen portion snus cans. Forgot how convenient, affordable, and somewhat taste these little Nicotine McNuggets are tucked under the old yap flap. As a traveling...

    Charatan Supreme Lane Era Magnum Cup and Saucer

    One of my estate auction finds. Got it for a ridiculous $30! I'm sure others would have bid on it had they known the value as a collectable. Most of the people there were scratching their heads at why I was so thrilled to possess a dead mans pipe...

    Pre-Transition Barling Questions

    I came across two great pre-trans barlings, one with a silver band with EB and WB stamped on it. Neither has any model number on it, but the Barlings is in an arch over the word make. Both have Ye Old Wood and one is EXEL(banded) other is EL. Both are stamped T.V.F. Needless to say when I...

    James Brown Flake

    Ol Sam Gawith has a brand new bag with this one. A few weeks ago I tucked some rather dry flakes of Best Brown Flake into a freshly cracked half tin of blakeneys best Arcadian ribbon. I'm smoking it now out of my pure Virginia pipe and can really detect the Arcadian ribbon's perique notes that...

    Samuel Gawith's Squadron Leader

    I really am enjoying this blend. I am usually not much for medium english, and haven't found anything with turkish that i particulary like. The coarser cut of the components allow for very easy packing, lighting, and an effortless cool smoke. Just wanted to see what you guys thought of this...

    Hello from Austin, TX

    Hello Fellow Pipesters, Just wanted to say what a great site this is and I am sure I will be spending tons of time on it exploring my hobby of pipe smoking. I picked up pipe smoking last year after being kind of burnt out on cigars and not wanting to revert back to cigarette smoking. I love...

    Sealed Tins, To open or not to open

    Hello Fellow Pipesters, My question is this: Is it not a good idea to open a tin if you have so many open tobaccos to work through and is that tobacco better off remaining sealed if I think it would take me over a year to go through a pound? How much "jar time" can you give an uncased...
