I am interested in buying a Dracula Sandblasted (XL90) Fishtail (9mm) but I am unable to find one? Are there any places that will modify a non filtered pipe to accept 9mm filter?- shane1

Corona Old Boy Lighter
I am considering getting a Corona Old Boy lighter in Matte Black. Looking at the traditional butane one, not the pipe master piezo. Are they worth it and if you have the matte black, does it wear well or should I consider another finish? Thanks.- shane1

Just Ordered Some Wilkes
I am not a huge Aromatic smoker but I do not hate them. Smoke mostly English/Balkan blends. Saw a lot of great reviews on some of the Wilkes blends so I ordered a sampler pack.

Just had Rattray Old Gowrie
Not a huge fan. To my limited tastes, it is not bad but not great. The room note to me reminds me of cigarettes, I am used to English and Balkan blends. I think I may even prefer light aromatics to this. I bought this in 2014 and I remember not caring for it them so I figured I would cellar it...- shane1
