    Sweet love of Black Cavendish.

    Ever since I was turned on to Dunhill AC30000 Black Cavendish I have just been taken by it, It is my all time favorite canvendish. Anyone else get a chance to try this? Such a smooth sweet smoke with just enough bite to wake you up in the morning with that sweet roast coffee. perfect Autumn blend.

    Enjoying my new Kirsten Pipe!

    yeah cleaning it is really not so bad, it's pretty easy to maintain...if you can get one for under 70 bucks i'd say go for it to try it out...it's a really interesting pipe i got mine for 35, it's a little older, this pic is from before i replaced the stem and put a bulldog bowl on it

    Enjoying my new Kirsten Pipe!

    well the bulldog bowl is made from italian briar which is great, cleaning it does take a little more time, they sell special tools to clean it with...as far as smoking it goes, it makes the tobacco feel "cleaner" i guess you can say? it traps a lot of the moister and heat that gives you tongue...

    Tell me about calabashes

    the only one I own is a BUTZ-CHOQUIN calabash with meerschaum insert/lining, it's a superior pipe that I only smoke on certain occasions. there are some "briar wax" pipes that are just cheap copies, a real briar one with a meer lining sounds amazing though.
