I love my WSM cooker... made ribs for 7 hours a few weeks ago... I need to fire it up again...

Maybe it's psychological but I've had Johnnie Walker and Dewar's... and then I tried Macallan 12 and Glenlivet, then Highland Park... I do smell/taste a big difference in quality and consistency with the single malts.

Highland Park 12 scotch... smokey and complex... and really consistently good.

I think Macallan 12 is good, but I've been enjoying Glenmorangie 10 and Highland Park 12 a little more. They are both different but neither are peaty.

Another vote for a french press. Simple Bodum one is fine... get a bag of fresh beans, grind them coarse... steep for 4 minutes and then press. Perfect.

I've wanted to try that... is it really much different form regular FM?

Looks beautiful

I like it a lot... nice character to it.

lol

That was a really rough thing to hear. Hope their families are hanging in.

I hate when people touch my screen at work. You know, to show me where they are talking about.

Anybody know what's up with DC? I mean, just in general.

Ah, so that is what that flavor is to the FM... I was wondering. Is this also where the tin aroma arises from?

It smells like BBQ sauce to me. I liked it.

Happy to report I had a long, satisfying smoke today with the same tobacco and pipe. I was at it for at least 40 minutes. I did have to relight 6-7 times, but it was worth it. I think I just wasn't packing enough, and I was dumping too much and too quickly. I am hoping the relighting will...

Thanks all... Yak, I like it! I need to get the W.A.F (wife approval factor) up to the appropriate levels and then hopefully it will still be available at that time. I think it may be a while, though... I've just made several pipe related purchases. :)

I'm open to higher prices... that was just a first shot. If you could pick just one dependable straight billiard, what would you get?

Budget... I want something of good quality which will last a lifetime, but I don't want to spend a fortune... maybe under $100? I would consider this my "dress pipe" for taking to weddings, events, or anywhere where a giant Gandalf style pipe might raise some eyebrows. something I can pull out...

The more I watch the "Mad Men" show, the more I am liking the look and feel of straight billiard style pipes. There are so many brands... what are a few good pipes/brands to start considering? I like that straight, classy look, and my current (and only) pipe is a completely different style, so...
