    Accessories Wanted Want to trade for some McClelland Christmas Cheer?

    I have a few tins of Christmas Cheer from 2015, 2016, and 2017 that I would consider trading for other blends.

    Need a pipe rack

    I need a pipe rack like this: Does anyone know where I can get one, or order one custom made? I'm looking for advice from someone who got one of these new and would recommend the maker/seller. Thanks.

    Finding tobacco release dates

    Is there a way to find out when a certain tobacco was first sold in the US? As you know, FDA regulations are going to severely impact the availability of blends that appeared after 2007. I would like to know if there is an easy way to determine if a certain blend falls in the FDA bleach bucket...

    Somerset Slices Gone.

    Called Peretti for an order of Somerset Slices and was told they don't make it anymore. Sad, sad day. :cry:

    Fun contest

    I have an item in the Trading Post, a razor that was photographed on top of a map. The first to post here what the map is about, i.e., the event that is depicted there, will win a tin of Dunhill Nightcap. Note that the razor has already been sold.

    Would you like some Kendal Dark?

    I love it, but gives me the hiccups. I have a small bag, maybe between 1 and 1.5 oz, that I would like to give away. Preferably, but not necessarily, to someone that never tried Kendal Dark. Just post here that you want it and later tonight I will pick a winner using random.org.

    Torpedoed

    The bulk bags were received in an earlier package and already have 3 or 4 oz missing, each. Today, waiting for me was the Arko stick and the Elizabethan Mix. Thanks, PB. You know how to treat a brother right. I hope you didn't throw your back on the way to the post office.

    Shaving soap recommendation

    I need shaving soap recommendations. I've been using shave creams exclusively for the last 20 years and would now like to try some of the good stuff there is out there. The key words are GOOD STUFF. Nothing too hard to lather for a beginner soap shaver. Thanks.

    McClelland Stave Aged Virginia

    I was looking forward to try this new series from McClelland, i.e., the new blends with a piece of cask in the tin. They come with a little cube of charred white oak that is supposed to come from a barrel used to age Bourbon. I read tobaccoreviews.com with anticipation. Unfortunately, my...

    Louisiana Flake

    Never tried it, but got a few ounces on a dare. I read it has a flavoring of some kind. Will it ghost my pipes?

    House of Calabash

    I just came across this site, but I've heard very little about the blender (Steven Brooks) and nothing about the the blends. There are no reviews on tobaccoreviews.com. The blends are a bit expensive (some of them more than just a bit). Did anyone try them? If so, are they really worth the price?

    Park Lane Tobacconist

    Did any of you order from them? How was the service? I am thinking about trying their house blends, but tobaccoreviews.com has very few entries. Any recommendations? Read a lot of good things about Red Paramour, but I'm especially curious about their version of Bengal Slices. Any suggestions...

    Cleaning clogged airways

    I have a couple of pipes that, with time, have a build up of carbon in the airways. They are canadians and have a long shank. I would like to clear the airway myself, possibly with a drill bit and hand vise. Do you guys know what size drill should I get? And where can I find long drill bits, say...

    Bob Runowski's blends

    Can someone tell me what C&D blends were developed by Bob Runowski? I also read some time ago that Bob had come up with something to replace ERR. I think it was a mixture of SWR and some other blend. Does anyone remember the recipe? Thanks for the help

    Slicing Jacknife Plug...

    Had my first encounter with Jacknife Plug today and have a question. I was expecting a plug but I think that I got a crumble cake instead. When slicing the plug, the slices just kept coming undone and I was unable to have a single neat and tidy slice like those appearing in the label. I smoke...
