    Good tobacco shop(s) in San Francisco?

    Not much left in downtown SF. Since Grant's closing, Telford's has become my local B&M. It's located a few miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge, in Strawberry, right off the 101.

    My tobacco cellar and non-smoking "smoking room"

    Thanks! Unfortunately, most of that setup is now gone. We moved to the West Coast last year and given the price of real estate here we had to give up a lot of space. Gone is the smoking room! Only the barrister bookcase remains, tucked away in a corner. In the last 2.5 years, the pipe collection...

    white ish spots on my tobacco?

    I have some white spots on my FVF and St James Flake jarred in 2011. But it shines under a bright light so it is clearly crystalline (sugar) - I didn't open the jars for closer inspection.

    The challenges of smoking in San Francisco

    Sadly yes, they were kicked out by their landlord. Last I heard, they are becoming an online-only retailer.

    The challenges of smoking in San Francisco

    I moved from the south to San Francisco for work in June and pipe smoking hasn't been the same since. Smoking at home is a no go and I rarely use my car anymore so smoking while driving is out too. Smoking in indoors and outdoors public spaces is banned pretty much anywhere in the city except...

I don't know what kind of tobacco you like but they have a pretty good selection of pipe tobacco at the moment (they just received a bunch of McClelland Virginias). They also have some new pipe bags. I'm...

    Humidor of Huntsville AL.

    Yes, it is a english/aromatic hybrid. Vanilla flavor (I also get a hint of caramel), cool burning, smooth, no tongue bite. Chuck was shooting for something spicier, but I like the result nonetheless.
