    Does anybody, really?

    I feel like it's a waste to not use something. If you are a collector, can you fully appreciate an item you have coveted for so long, if you cannot enjoy the primary purpose that it was made for? Yes, the aesthetic is one major part of what makes pipes special, but that's, at most, only half of...

    Congrats! How long do the bigger bowled pipes smoke for you? I keep buying small pipes for some reason, haha

    What watch you wearing?

    I figure there must be some crossover with watches and pipes. My current favorite watch is my Tudor Black Bay with red dial. It's my best watch, and the watch that I wear the most. Would like to see what you guys wear as well.

    Can you ever have too much tobacco?

    Out of curiosity, I bought a few aromatics, which I have not learned to appreciate yet. I simply prefer English and Oriental forward blends, and some Virginias as well. But I can't bear to throw them out. I have cellared them, but I have heard through the grapevine that aromatics don't cellar...

    Oriental forward? (and virginia tips?)

    Let me tell you, Tashkent is my new favorite! What a pleasant smoke. It's quite literally, exactly what I was looking for. Appreciate you, and the others who suggested it.

    American in Norway

    The stories can be sad... like how you might pay $40 for a six pack of beer. Or the stories can be scary... like how you swear you saw a troll wandering through the woods next to the road when you're driving at night!

    Oriental forward? (and virginia tips?)

    I love EMP, but I have Peterson version. It was my impression that they were the same? Thanks for the tip on Embarcadero!

    Best Pipe For Blend Type

    I am sorry if this has been discussed before, but since I am new to piping, I wanted to get everyone's ideas on what blend types go well with which pipe shapes. I have found that I like Virginias out of pipes that have thick walls for the bowl - ie - Capstan Blue out of a thick walled Dublin...
