    DAMN YOU PERIQUE!!

    Normally I smoke outside. However, it has been a little chilly outside. So I have been sneaking a few bowls in my basement while the wife is sleeping. It was working perfectly and I had great satisfaction in getting away with something. Well..... at 2 a.m. I was tucked away in my basement...

    If you could only pick one brand

    Which would it be? Right now i think I would pick Solani. Everything blend they make seems to be pretty amazing. In fairness, I have not tried any G.L. Pease and a couple other major brands. Bill

    Meerschaum lined estate pipe

    I received a meerschaum lined pipe from ebay. It is a mess. The bowl is coated with crap that I suspect in not tobacco residue. How do I clean this out? sand? salt bath? Thanks, Bill

    Casing and Topping

    According to G.L. Pease in the FAQ linked below, almost all tobacco has some type of added flavor in some form. In either casing or topping. http://glpease.com/FAQ.html My question is: What tinned tobacco has no added flavor at all? Are there any? Thanks, Bill

    Solani Aged Burley Flake

    Does Burley get better with age like a virgina does? Because I cracked open a tin of Solani Burley this weekend and I really enjoyed it. It was very light and a little sweet. There was no bite at all and I was really huffing on this stuff. Thanks, Bill
