    Suddenly lost my taste for pipe tobacco

    Not sure what happened. Im a regular pipe smoker and smoke about 6 blends exclusively. Nothing has changed in my smoking routine/patterns, same amount of dry time, same char light, same smoking pace, everything yet about a month ago, I just lost my taste. All my blends taste acidic, ashy, and...

    C&D The Haunting

    This blend is the bomb. Everything that I love about cigars and Virginia leaf together in one with a dash of perique in the background (I know its in there, even though its not explicitly stated). I wish there was a blend that was regularly available like it because if there were I would smoke...

    Training Myself to Smoke Cooler

    Title edited. Rule 9. I’ve been pipe smoking for about six years. I still haven’t been able to train myself to smoke slow and cool and regularly give myself tongue bite. Most the time I don’t even realize I’m smoking hot. Any tips on how to train yourself to smoke cooler?

    White Spots on Meerschaum- What?

    Context, I waxed my pipe a week or so ago and took the blowdryer to the pipe to get rid of some of the excess wax today. These white spots formed on the pipe. My guess is it’s areas where the wax has melted away from the surface either deeper into the pores of the meerschaum or where the wax...

    Should I Pull the Plug on this Andreas Bauer?

    Currently the highest bidder at $125, thinking of going to 180 before dropping. It’s a 1978 AB with real amber stem and OG case. Is it worth it over a Tekin I’m looking at?

    Studies on Pipe and Cigar smokers - Inconsistent!?

    Title abreviated and capitalized. Original: Why do health studies on pipe and cigar smokers have such wildly different results? I am getting my graduate degree in Data Science so I tend to nerd out of research articles around topics that interest me. I have read nearly ten articles on the...

    Why do English/Balkan Blends Burn so Well?

    Title edited for caps and brevity. Original: "Why do English/Balkan blends burn so smoothly and evenly compared to other blends?" I haven't smoked a single English/Balkan blend that I haven't been able to smoke to the bottom of the bowl. No tongue bite, no overheating, just a solid tasty...

    Advice on Nasal Snuff

    I just started using nasal snuff, something my wife is surprisingly okay with to supplement my pipe smoking. My first snuff was Gawith Apricot Menthol. I cannot figure out how to take it. I am not snorting it, just gently sniffing with my nose as if I was smelling roses yet for some reason...

    Growing and Blending Tobacco: Questions

    I am planting my first round of seeds. I have a variety, many for cigars, cigarettes, snus and pipe tobacco. For those of you who have grown and blended your own tobacco, how did it turn out and what sort of blending did you do to make tasty blends?

    Does Tsuge have a storefront?

    Traveling to Japan this next month and would love to dip my toe in the Japanese pipe scene. I would love to get a Tsuge pipe from the source but I am not sure if they have a storefront. Also am open to any other pipe smoking sights I should go to while I am there.

    How Long Have You Smoked a Pipe?

    Title edited for capitalization. Please see Rule 9. To save everyone the trouble, it's pretty much that everything should be capitalized except articles and most 2-3 letter words. How long have you been smoking a pipe and at what age did you start? What made you choose pipe smoking?

    What are You Smoking this Christmas?

    Title Edited. Original: "Merry Christmas smokers, what pipe are you smoking this Christmas?" Since many assumed it was tobacco, and not the actual pipe, I've broadened the title.

    LJ Peretti Thanksgiving Day: Tastes of Latakia?

    I've had the weirdest experience with TGD this year (TGD '22). Last year and even earlier this fall, I got the clear nutty, distinct burley flavor but I noticed on Thanksgiving Day (the literal day), that the blend tasted nearly identical to Havana Daydream. I have no idea what's going on with...

    Pipe stem replacements

    Need a new stem for one of my teflon push tenon meers. I've talked to several people and none of them offer that service. Any suggestions on who to buy some custom replacement stems from?
