    What in the Heck happened to C&D's cut?

    I opened a new tin of Laurel Heights and this is what I was greeted with.  :?:   :?: Seriously? This stuff is very thin cut but not quite slipping into the realm of shag, very uncharacteristic for a GLP blend. I wish I had an older tin to show you guys a comparison but I smoked it. However...

    Mac Baren’s Capstan Blue Navy Cut Flake

    Anyone enjoy smoking this one? It really reminds me of a sweeter version of Dunhill Flake. I am digging the overall flavor profile. I find it to be quite rich. It’s a bit woodsy, spicy on the finish and there’s a decent amount of body to support the sugary sweet aftertaste. I have to admit, the...

    HH Acadian Perique

    Anyone else enjoy smoking this blend? When I opened my first tin and gave it a whirl, my impression was that it was decent and that the perique was quite mellow. I was miffed as to why Mac Baren had named the blend Acadian Perique because mostly what I tasted was the Kentucky dart fired. I put...

    Haddo's at 5 y/o

    Five years ago, I opened a tin of fresh Haddo's and smoking it was an interesting but overwhelmingly intense affair. I smoked 3 bowls of it and jarred the rest up. Shortly after, Shane Ireland had gifted me a nice bit of this blend from 2002 which I recently finished turning to ash. I loved...

    Randy Wiley Pipes?

    I love a couple of his carved rusticated finishes, especially the Old Oak but I am very curious about how they smoke and how well they are engineered. He seems to make a lot of pipes, so I have my concerns. Anyone own one or more of his pipes? Care to comment? Thanks

    Less than ideal temps for tobacco storage

    Question for the veterans who have been cellaring tobacco for a long time. I have been smoking a pipe off and on since I was 18, but it's only been over the last 6-7 years that I have been putting tobacco away for the future. I know that tobacco is best kept sealed air tight in a dry, dark, cool...

    Condor?

    I was going to make a Mr. Snuff order and I noticed that they sell Condor, a bit pricey but I have always wanted to try it. So, Condor Long Cut vs. the Ready Rubbed. Besides the cut, is there a difference between the two? Which would you recommend?
