Pipe of the Day

MacBaren Plumcake in a Missouri Meerschaum. Wait...isn't that illegal? It seems I heard a decision from the Hague some years ago strictly forbidding European tin tobacco in cob pipes. All kidding aside Plumcake is very tasty and the cob as usual delivered a wonderful smoke.

eTom, I have a Vauen pipe with a filter, but I don't like the filter. Can you smoke the Vauen pipe without the filter?

Yes you can, but you should use a special adapter. This adapter reduce the space inside.
I'll ask my dealer...
Please ask your dealer too. If he don't have such adapters I could send you one by snail-mail...

Thank you. I found one at Tobaccopipes.com for $5. It's called a Vauen Tabak. I will check with our local pipe shop to see if they carry them, if not, I will order it online. Thank you!

A pleasure!

Has anyone tried Peterson's Christmas Blend for 2013? The mixture looks interesting and I'm thinking about buying a tin, but was wondering if any of you had given it a go yet.

The look of the tin has caught my attention, as well as Peterson's Special Reserve and Summertime Blend, but they are aromatics (with Cavendish), and so far, aromatics are not apealing to me, with one exception.

BTW, I put in a large order of tobaccco to get free shipping, and it includes some Old Dark Fired and Plumcake (that's the one exception), among others. If I continue at my pace of 1-2 bowls per week, I should have a couple years worth of tobacco. On the other hand, if I start picking up the pace, I guess I'll be doing some more shopping.

Once again the "Sachsen Classic" came to Glauchau.

here you get some of the beautyful cars

I love that Plumcake .... yummy, yummy Plumcake. I suppose technically it could be considered an aromatic because of the Jamaican Rum but like you it's the only one then that I can tolerate anymore. I love the smell of aromatics just fine, but smoking them is too burny for my tongue anymore. That Syrian latakia is what keeps me goin on the PC. Little teasing sips of latakia. I may somewhere down the road try that old dark fired too.Been reading up on it and it sounds delicious.

I asked the guys at my local about the Pilots mix I been enjoying and they say it's not cased at all. The wonderful cinnamon chocolate like flavor is straight up matured Virginia. Yuuuum !!
