    I've been looking at silver capped pipes lately. Then I get a ruler and beat my knuckles until the urge goes away. I suppose I could use a similar strategy for the BOTW thread, but there's no "add to cart" option, so I'm good with just looking.

    That was an eBay purchase from a brother from another forum who quit smoking and is selling off all his pipes. I'm surprised I wasn't outbid.

    Getting a late start this morning with "Burley Morning Pipe with Coffee" with coffee in my Neal Monier Bing. It's a breezy morning and we're hoping it's warm tomorrow so the visiting family will be comfortable eating in the back yard.

    Easter dinner done, most of the guests have gone home, I'm stuffed. Time for some Louisiana Flake in my small, but mighty Norm Triptow pipe.

    Trying out some shredded whole leave Oriental tobacco from Prelip, North Macedonia in my clay pipe. A bit musty, a bit sour I'd say though no strong flavors have stepped forward.

    Here's a video I found comparing bulk versus pressed Balkan Supreme.

    I haven’t been smoking a pipe regularly for very long, but what these guys seem to be astonished by seems to me that it should be expected. From what I’ve found, any ribbon cut blend allows you to pick out the flavors of each tobacco because they are separate. When you compress the same tobaccos together the pressure applied forces the oils inside each tobacco out and allows them to blend together. That’s why you have a more cohesive flavor out of a pressed tobacco than not.

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    I was going to smoke Wilke PB & C in a MM Cob, but I think I'll smoke some deliciously sour WCC Off The Rails in a Maddis Dublin instead. Third pipe from the left.
