    Pipestud Needs Help Identifying A Pipe... Once again!

    Yes beautiful, it is very inspired by the Nonpareil, but more beautiful.

    Look What I Found…

    Can you explain this to me? I have never aged tobacco, partly out of impatience and partly because I can't buy something to use in a few years without the certainty of still being alive.

    Savinelli: No Filter?

    I imagine it's to remove some of the nicotine in overly strong tobaccos, and/or to avoid tongue bite with certain flavored ones.

    Could you post the Amazon link?

    Royal Yacht Buzz

    The first third of the smoke is something great, the perfect tobacco for my tastes; then, suddenly, the nicotine skyrockets and becomes very bitter. Sin. Has anyone else had this experience?

    That Old School Aroma

    In my family I only had one uncle who smoked a pipe. I can't remember the aroma because I've been anosmic since birth, but I remember the tartan texture of the envelope: Clan! He smoked a pipe constantly, there is no photo of him without a pipe in his mouth; he was basically a cigarette smoker...

    And Your Favourite Cheese Is?

    Yes, but in Sardinia they have been eating it for centuries and have the highest percentage of over centenarians in the world 😂

    No, but I'm sure he would love to try me.

    Sacre Bleu: French Baker Makes Croissants Sans Butter.

    Anything is possible, there will be many ways to make olive oil. For example, the one from northern Italy is light, transparent and tastes of nothing. I hate it, maybe they are the ones who pickle the olives (lol).

    And Your Favourite Cheese Is?

    I think it's sheep. I have been to Sardinia many times but it is not available, it has become illegal and is only sold clandestinely. If you don't know the right people you won't find it. Too bad, because I was really curious to try it.

    Sacre Bleu: French Baker Makes Croissants Sans Butter.

    The problem is that today we are afraid of flavors more than fats.

    Sacre Bleu: French Baker Makes Croissants Sans Butter.

    Maybe it was just the washing phase. We're not talking about brine here. https://www.frantoionutile.it/fasi-lavorazione.php#:~:text=Fasi%20della%20Lavorazione-,Il%20ciclo%20di%20lavorazione%20per%20ottenere%20l'olio%20d'oliva,%2C%20centrifugazione%2C%20stoccaggio%20e%20imbottigliamento.

    Sacre Bleu: French Baker Makes Croissants Sans Butter.

    I hate biscuits without palm oil; if you write on the package "without palm oil" you lose a customer with me.

    Savinelli: No Filter?

    It is said that the balsa filter serves to retain the humidity that it produces itself.

    G & H Balkan

    I recently purchased some cans of Samuel Gawith, all with plastic seals around the perimeter. I opened two Sam's Flake with my hands, in both cases the lid came off easily without making the classic vacuum "pop". The sensation was that of cans without vacuum.
