    The Dedicated Pipe Dilemma

    I keep a few pipes exclusively for Aromatics, otherwise it's free and open to all pipes for all tobaccos......I never feel that I am getting any ghosting if I go from an English to a Virginia based tobacco! Anyway with all the Blends out there how will remember the pipe/ tobacco mix junction...

    Finally Scratched The Morta Itch

    I haven't had great luck with Morta pipes either I purchased two of them .The first developed a hairline crack at the end of the stummel ,the second one (also an Askwith) so far is intact. I just don't think that the Bog Oak is that stable. Great look, smoke well but too fragile for me.
