    I just tried GL Pease Embarcadero

    I just opened a tin of this stuff and although I have only smoked one bowl it sure made me sit up and pay attention. In fact I would go as far as to say that so far no bowl of tobacco has had me concentrating quiet so hard as Embarcadero has. This is very, very good stuff.

    Name Your "Social Mixture."

    Kyle, I have actually had quiet a few complements on the smell of Marlin Flake when I have smoked it in social situations. Also, I find if I smoke any tobacco slowly enough I can get away with it. I figure the slow release of smoke into the area keeps the intensity down for everyone else. I...

    Good place to Begin

    There have been some great suggestions so far, but as someone who never makes it to a B&M shop and buys all his pipes on-line, I can't recommend Peterson pipes highly enough.

I got it second hand on ebay for a steal and it came in incredible condition. I smoke english mixtures in it and...

    What are you smoking?

    Germain's Special Latakia Flake in my John Upshall rusticated billard. I always look forward to this combination when it comes round in my rotation..

    Hello from London.

    Thanks for all the nice responses guys. Really enjoying looking around these forums. Yeah, it seems like it's harder getting them in the US. Seen lots of threads saying they are in stock and people jumping on them. The B&M place near my work sells all the Gawith blends, but they sure are...

    Hello from London.

    Good day to you all. I found this amazing forum a couple of days ago and figured I should make an account and get involved. I have been smoking a pipe on and off for about a year (gave up the cigarettes two years ago), but in the last few months I have really embraced it. I atribute this to...
