    You put a thick pipe cleaner in the stem/shank of the pipe, fill the bowl with kosher salt and then carefully put strong alcohol in the bowl without getting it on the outside finish of the pipe. The alcohol loosens the tar and gunk in the pipe and the salt absorbs it away from the inside. If your pipe has a ghost of tobacco that you can't get rid of, this is a good way to work on it. A lot of time those ghosts live in the shank and heel of the pipe, so you should also be running some pipe cleaners or shank brushes with alcohol through the shank too.

    This pipe I'm working on has a stubborn ghost.

    DTT Sobremesa from @Trident's L&L Blind Smoke. TYVM Roman. Second salt treatment for this pipe.

    I thought you were running low on booze and resorted to drastic measures.

    You can use Everclear to clean your pipes, unless you live in California which bans such liquids. 151 Proof rum also works as does high proof Isopropyl alcohol.

    A little foreshadowing, chris

    Could this have anything to do with a shipment notification from Tampa?

    I don't know why I did a Bishops Sunday on Friday, senior moment I suppose.

    The shipment from Tampa is a pipe I recently bought.

    What about the cigar and whiskey?
