Funny how life and tobacco seem to go together. Been away from my pipes for a couple months, never really thought about them. I finally picked one up yesterday and packed a bowl of some flake by the name of Black Woods. The tin was opened 4 months ago however, it was put in a Mason jar, so...

Opened a tin of Old Dark Fired today for a first try. It is a tasty VaBur and was smokable out of the tin. Another new tobacco to always have in my rotation.

I originally started pipe smoking to help myself cut down on those nasty cigs. About the only time I smoke cigs now is when I cant my pipe. One of the first tobaccos I smoked was recommended by McCranies. (lucky enough to live only 5 miles away) It was their First Lite. They also told me it was...

Early into pipe smoking I realized I was not going to be a fan of aromatics. That said after six months in a mason jar Milonga is actually becoming very smokable yet still nice and moist. Did not care for it when I first opened the tin, way to sweet. Like it was supposed to be eaten with a...

I have after almost a year of pipe smoking settled in to some sort of a rotation. I have eight mason jars with tobacco. Some has been in the jars longer than others as I find I smoke some more often as others. I have three to four open tins that I smoke often enough I see no need to transfer to...

I have not had much luck with any of the flake tobaccos I smoke using the fold and stuff method. They are normally rubbed out and dried a few mins before packing. I was in a hurry to leave the house today grabbed a Burley Slice folded it put it in the pipe and left it alone. After first light...

Wessex Burley Slice.......Two bowls into this new tobacco and I already like the flavor profile much better than Solani ABF. Thought it was more enjoyable and smoked with less attention. Still looking for my favorite Burley. This might be it. Anyone else tried it?

Leo Tobacco Has anyone had this and what did you think? Going to add this one to my next order. "Winner of the People's Choice Award in the 2012 John Cotton Throwdown, this blend was the more oriental-oriented of the three participants, blended by Leonard Wortzel of Lane Limited. With a light...

Yenidje Supreme in a Tsuge Bent Bulldog.

Some Rattray' s Old Gowrie in a billiard, keep falling back to this mason jar.

Last night after drying a flake for 30 mins and then fully rubbed out I loaded a bowl of Solani ABF. After smoking about half the bowl I got sidetracked (easy to do at my age) and ended up going to bed. Picked the pipe up this morning and the flavors are better than I remember from this...

Considering a Savinelli Toscana 6mm online. Do people use the filters or not. Can you smoke this pipe without the filter? The only other contact with a filter came with my Cob and I took it out after one bowl.I like this pipe for price, looks and weight.

How do you know when it's time to ream the bowl? I only have one pipe and a MM so it gets smoked often. Special tool?

having only one straight billiard and two cobs could someone explain why I might or might not like a P-Lip. Whats the difference between it and a Fish-Tail besides the obvious shape.

Great baccy, try it!

Love this tobacco, anything come in Tins that might be similar. Besides McCranies Red Ribbon. Been smoking pipes about 6 months and like to try lots of different tobaccos and Have become a true fan of Va's

Should I roll and stuff or rub it out?

Received a free sample of Suliff Private Stock, Great Outdoors yesterday. Are there really people in the world that smoke Aromatics? Or is this just a really bad one. I do not have nor ever had any Aromatics in my rotation. X cig smoker and have always looked for the nic hit

If you like Va's try the 2008 crop red ribbon by McCranie's tin-date 2012. It's like heaven to smoke and hell to be without. Try it

I have numerous open tins and zip-locks of tobacco I have purchased. Tend to smoke some more often than others. How long will tobacco keep in tins and ziplock bags? How many do most people keep in their rotation.
