Clay Tobacco Pipes = Need Your Opinions....etc,..
I'm buying one right now off of Penn Valley. actually a pair... the way i see it, they are so cheap and such a huge part of the pipe smokers heritage, we don't have a choice! I think I am going to have to buy some Walter Raleigh original though to have out of it since he should be credited as...- rickcrum

How to decide on a type of tobacco for that new pipe
So I tried the lane1q Latakia blend... I think I need another day from the Latakia... It's a potent son of a gun. Came through on taste quite a bit but the room note seemed all cavendish... I may keep trying different proportions because I wasn't feeling it today. Il smoke some burley and... -

How to decide on a type of tobacco for that new pipe
Ruscho, relax... The lane 1q blends with a straight Latakia and did you not read I am new to tobacco? It's an ambience thing I guess... I did try the dunhill 965 mand holy crap that tasted great! It was the saddest I have ever been at the end of a bowl. On the other end I was hit with some... -

Corn Cob Virgin
I received my first cob from Riccardo Santia today and I'm on my 3rd bowl... I'm less than 6 months into pipe smoking so I'm smoking a mild altadis 1-m vanilla and it's my favorite. My local B&M is lacking so my options are limited... The pipe is amazing however... I wish I had a tobacco mentor...- rickcrum

Traveling with pipe
Next October I've got a trip to punta Cana (honeymoon) . I haven't been smoking a pipe and in the winter I practically don't touch my pipe. So obviously traveling is something I've never done with my pipe. I am going on about three trips in between now and then but all of them are road trips...- rickcrum
