It seems like it takes awhile to learn how tight to pack new tobacco. You will find that, depending on the moisture of the bakky, you will need to tamp lighter. Learning how is part of the fun!

Also, if you are going to smoke both aromatics and English blends, do it in seperate pipes. The flavors will start to blend. Imagine a sweet latakia.

Hope you enjoy them! On edit: that MacBarren Roll Cake tends to burn a little hot. Wait until you get some carbon built up in the pipe before you light that up.

Another vote for a SS, but if you are looking for something fairly small and quick, I suggest a AF Exquisito maduro (4.5x34) or a Padron Cortico (4x35). The exquisito surprisingly packs quite a bit of flavor in a small stick. They are my wife's goto stick, she adores them.

Excellent review! I have a glass at least twice a week. This one is not for the faint of heart.

Here is my attempt tonight. AF Don Carlos #2. This one had a fairly stiff ash compared to the others I've had in the past. I probably could have taken it a bit farther, but the wind was picking up. When I first started enjoying cigars about a year ago, these quickly became my goto stick. I...

I did a search and didn't really find what I was after. I've got a Colibri Fury model and have been happy with it (others say they suck after my search). I'm looking to get another and would like one with a torch flame, punch cutter, and a fuel window. Is there such an animal?

The question at hand is who's ass is going to be in a sling for doing this? I would raise absolute holy hell on UPS.

This could get intresting. It is believed that his brother is more radical, however.

You're quite welcome! Enjoy the sapphire. With all the recent bombings, I thought I'd send out my first one. This could get addicting. :cool:

The sunset this evening made a Padron 3000 maduro and a glass of Lagavulin 16 even better!

RANT ON I've got XM. The commercials and the rambling idiots on channel 13 are making me question why I even have it. XM has a huge potential, all music, no talking. It could be a fully automated process. I don't need to hear advertisements for XM on XM channels. I want to hear only music, no...

Need some help indentifying this Gurkha. My sister got it as part of her wedding gift to me.

Lately I've been rotating Frog Morton on the Town and McClelland's Rose of Latakia. Neither of them hold a candle to John B Hayes (B&M) McHayes Blend. :love:

The deal with Meerschaums is (so I hear from my tobacconist) is that when the stone gets hot, the oil from your fingers gets "burned" on. I don't know if he is FOS, but I wouldn't want to wear white knit gloves while smoking one. Vinny, you can get a small pipe for $30 if you look around. My...

My first was a Romeo y Julieta Reserva Maduro toro size. I was instantly hooked. My wife (fiance at the time) fired up something called a Big Butt since she thought the name was funny. She loved it. I've never seen it available anywhere since then.

Just polished off some Lagavulin 16 after two glasses of George Stagg straight from the barrel bourbon. These were a wedding gift from my father and I must say, I was more than surprised!

If anyone doesn't want to wait the 3 week waiting period, I've still got my free sampler. I searched through all the freebies and didn't even open one bag. Aromatics are not my thing, I prefer a strong English. Anyway, the first PM I get wanting it, its yours. I'll send the sampler out free of...
