    Hello from the Burgh

    Greetings from...the burgh, too! I live over in Westmoreland cty but work out at CMU ...great weather today, I think I need to go find a nice bench and smoke some Orlik Golden Sliced. I've been really enjoying Cornell and Diehl John Marr lately for an aromatic that still has a lot of tobacco...

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

    Enjoyed a bowl of C&D John Marr on the morning commute in Baracinni Mare Blue ...this pipe, for some reason, almost always delivers amazing smokes ...John Marr really has some really nice Virginias in it, IMO.

    University Flake match

    I have not smoked University Flake, but I do recall several folks saying it is similar to Sutliff Mocha Strips: https://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/239/sutliff-tobacco-company-307-mocha-strips/ If you Google both blend names in a single search, you will find some hits that suggest a...

    What "The Wife" Thinks

    I am very lucky that my wife is supportive, if not very enabling - I smoke my pipe in the house, in the car, anywhere. She really likes the smell of Virginias and loves aromatics ...she will remind me that it's totally fine with her to smoke on road trips. I do make sure to not hot-box a room...

    Smoker’s Pride

    If you like a run of the mill "Vanilla" pipe tobacco - their Vanilla fits the bill ..and actually ages kinda nicely.. I am also a fan of the black cavendish ...the stuff isn't going to win awards, but I have had good experiences with those two; when it gets miserable hot/humid in the summer I...

    Cornell & Diehl: Decanting

    I cannot agree with the approach more...it feels counterintuitive to open up a fresh tin and just walk away, but I honestly find the longer the better. ..to be fair, I like my tobacco crispy. Most recently, this year's iteration of Sun Bear ...I was eager and smoked a bowl as soon as I opened...

    Why Do Aromatics Have a Bad Rap?

    Definitely! I do agree with the idea that we don't see a lot of exclusive aro-only smokers here ...it seems like these folks have to exist in droves, but, they might not have as much to chat about on a forum like this.
