Outta pipe cleaner.

[SmokinInCanada]

Anyways like the title says I ran out of pipe cleaner/alcohol today and my local B&M won't be getting a shipment of the stuff in anytime this month, just my luck. Anyways I know people use alcohol to clean their pipes also rum, whiskey, brandy, ect. So I have a bottle of Jack Daniels sitting around and I was wondering if I could use it for my alcohol cleaning? Thanks.

Frenchy, a well known and loved pipe dealer, uses Jack on his personal pipes. I use 151 rum. Some folks use isopropyl alcohol with excellent results. IMO pipe cleaner is a waste of money.

I use flavored brandy or rum for pipes that I smoke aromatics in trying to match similar or same flavors to match the tobacco. And for my non-aromatics I use a cheap whisky. You don’t have to go to that extreme but that is what I do.

Enjoy
