    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    I’m really like San Sepolcro this year. Very good stuff, finished my tin before I lost my taste last month

    Suddenly Lost my Taste for Pipe Tobacco

    I won’t ever stop smoking, not even if I’m at deaths doorstep. I’ve taken up snus (for those of you who were on that thread, my wife and I came to an agreement) which has cut down my smoking a lot compared to what it used to be but I don’t ever plan to quit. I had a cancer scare this last year...

    Suddenly Lost my Taste for Pipe Tobacco

    There are some blends that still are quite flavorful, the Haunting being one. Im not a fan of English or Balkan blends but those are blends I have not tried since this strange event. Maybe I should try it tonight.

    Not really. I’ve done some gentle bowl scraping on my meers but that’s about it.

    Medications: I’m not on any so no. Diet: sort of, I switched from Carnivore to an animal based diet. Probably not a bad idea to see the doc and get a physical.

    I do have hereditary high blood pressure despite me being young and quite fit so it wouldn’t surprise me haha. I think the latter is more likely though

    Title edited. See Rule 9 for title guidance. Not sure what happened. Im a regular pipe smoker and smoke about 6 blends exclusively. Nothing has changed in my smoking routine/patterns, same amount of dry time, same char light, same smoking pace, everything yet about a month ago, I just lost my...

    Natural American Spirit Pipe Tobacco

    I'll be honest, I don't smoke cigarettes often but when I do, I only smoke American Spirits Blue and Black. Supposedly they have perique in them and I find them to be extremely flavorful, so much so that I sometimes just draw in with my mouth and don't inhale, just so I can get the full flavor.

    Only Yanik Would Carve Something Like This

    Consider the scale though. For the piece you posted, its a figural head piece so you have a larger subject where you can include much more detail. For the other one, its a larger scene so you can't get as narrow detail

    Was the profile of Savinelli similar or just the topping?

    C&D The Haunting

    You might be able to find a few tins online or even here on the forum. I think it was pretty popular so there could be some. You could also post a "Willing to Buy" as well if you're eager.
