    80+ Tobacco Sampler; Help Develop My Palette

    I find this both fascinating and totally antithetical to my pipe-world view. Fascinating because it’s such a stark example of how different we are piper to piper. For me, this all seems like work, and I have plenty of that in my life already. I’m just trying to chill and smoke my pipe. Why...

    Dayum. That’s a very cool piece of that genre’s history. I wonder if those are the same masters that appeared on Grippe. Very fucking neat either way.

    No shit?! Me too. Been a devoted fan since ‘92. For Your Own Special Sweetheart is a masterpiece. I saw them in LA in 1995ish and Atlanta in 1997ish. Both explosive and intense shows. Between this revelation and the Breeders thing a few weeks ago, I suspect our musical tastes are fairly aligned.

    Wow! So very generous! That pipe is a beauty.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Ok. After a little decanting, this blend is much better. That first bowl was sparked maybe 3 mins after opening the tin. Even only a couple days later, this bad boy has become deeply, but not overly sweet but only sometimes. Sometimes there’s like a peach cobbler vibe but not in a sweet way...

    The same way I’d open a can of paint.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    I have probably 30 HU blends, including Zulu, and none of them come in “cutter tops”. They’re either normal flat, round tins or “paint can” style.

    Should I Be Concerned About This Draft Hole?

    Great Q. It’s already packed up and ready for shipping back. I do not own a single pipe out of roughly 30 that won’t pass a pipe cleaner and I don’t plan on starting now. I tried and this one does not pass a pipe cleaner.

    Great Q. Sadly, it’s already packed up for return.

    Should I Be Concerned About This Draft Hole?

    Insightful and wise. Thank you. I think I’ll return it.

    Should I Be Concerned About This Draft Hole?

    I bought it from SP.C as an unsmoked estate pipe. I haven’t smoked it yet because I want to return it if it’s not right.

    Should I Be Concerned About This Draft Hole?

    I just got this 2023 Peterson Christmas pipe. The draft hole looks like it’s way off. Should I return this? Are more pics needed? If so, what exactly can I photograph to better illustrate the seemingly way off center draft hole? Please advise. Thank you.

    Yes! Get a German “agent” to do it for you. I found someone on here. They buy and then ship to me.

    Best Way to Send Pipe Tobacco to Ireland?

    I think it all depends on how you word the declaration of contents on the customs forms. Be truthful but also be….smart.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Pfeifen Huber Old Belt Virginia. Having the first bowl now. So far it’s…fine. Absolutely nothing to write home about. I prefer Derringer, Simply Orange, Kendall Gold etc. Tin note smelled like it had a topping but that topping isn’t in the smoke as far as I can tell. It’s very natural and...
