Alright guys, quick question regarding a sweet "tangy-ness" I get on the tip of my tongue during the first half of a bowl. I enjoy Escudo, SG FVF and I just received my first tin of Frog Morton on the bayou, and also my first tin of Personal Reserve: Blackwoods Flake, both of these are very...

So a couple weeks ago we were at our SoCal Herf and I was talking to Dave (1029Henry) about how much I liked the Fuente Anejo line. So he told me about Tampa Sweethearts having a good sampler pack at a good price. So I had him PM me the address to the place. Fast forward to last Tuesday. I went...

How To Sharpen Your Knife With A Cup [VIDEO] I thought this was cool to know.

Here's Big Dave's quick tip of the day......When steaming Tambo and preparing it for the pipe. Do not inhale too much of the steam and please be sure to wear gloves. If this tip is not followed, your kitchen may begin spinning. Also, and this is not from personal experience, you could very...

lI get emails from Cheaphumidors sometimes. The latest one was "Top 10 Cigar Tips." The first tip was.... "1. To make sure your cigar cutter stays sharp and clean, keep the wrapper on your cigar before cutting." I had never heard this before. Does anyone else cut their cigar with the...

Just a odd observation but I notice my father clenches his sticks between his teeth and they always end up mangled and soaked. Me on the other hand, my tips look the same as when they were cut by the time I am done. What side of the fence to you land on?

I received some excellent news on Friday (more later if the deal actually gets signed this week, but I don't want to jinx it!) and decided to celebrate by smoking a Padron 1964 Anniversary Natural that had been in the humidor for a few weeks. I'd been getting cigars at the liquor store close...

I am the proud new owner of a Ronson Octet Touch Tip Lighter. This is the same lighter Bogart uses in The Maltese Falcon. I took it apart, cleaned it out and got the flint sparking beautifully. The only problem is that the wick is pretty shot. I don't think this is the same wick that current...

I'm probably the only one who thinks this :eyebrows:, but here's how it goes. Too fat, too fat, just right, too skinny. LMBFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Purchased as a single two months ago. A very well constructed cigar. Very cool and mild smoke throughout with some spice added to second half. ... Read the full review here: Acid Kuba Kuba Cigar Review - good cigar, get rid of sweetened tip

Well, since I'm a newbie I thought I'd jump in with a helpful tip. One day, in the garage working on my bike, the Cohiba I was smoking was ALL plugged up. Frustrated and not wanting to waste money, I snipped off the cherry, grabbed a T-shaped spring steel long allen (hex) wrench that was handy...

Dedicate a pipe to it! I smoked three bowls of Cornell & Diehl's Crooner in a meerschaum and I can still taste it 8 bowls later!!!! Bleah! This stuff ghosts more than latakia or any aromatic! :scared:

Herr Mayor and fine Irishman Dubinthedam sent me a tin of Three Nuns from across the waves in a gesture of solidarity and friendship. I haven't cracked the tin yet but can hardly wait to sink my tastebuds into this legendary tobacco that rarely sees the American shores. A big thank you to you...

Many newbies have several problems all going on at once when they first pick up pipe smoking. The tobacco's burning too hot. It's burning too wet. It's hard to draw. It isn't burning all the way down. Well I'm here to say that there is one answer to all of these problems. SLOW DOWN. Take your...

A good way to keep your vulcanite stems from oxidizing is when you finish your smoke, wipe a big of petroleum jelly on the stem. Wait about 5 minutes and lightly buff it off with a rag (I use a piece of an old t-shirt). The petroleum soaks into the little crevices of the vulcanite and simply...

This thread was inspired by another one. If you find a tobacco that you really like and are looking for another with similar ingredients you simple select your tobacco and at the top of the page select similar. For Instance you are looking for VaPer's find and select something like Escudo...

Thought that I would pass this on to everyone. Not sure if it will apply to anyone else. I had a couple of pipes out on my shelf that I had pre-packed about 4 days prior and I also had some Barbary Coast out on a paper towel to dry off. Last night I noticed that the Barbary was taking a...

So it had been a few days since I have been able to smoke a bowl, so tonight faced with a hour long drive home from dropping off my nephew I had for the weekend, with no tunes (some ass hat stole my stereo last week) I thought maybe I will try and pass the time driving with a good smoke. I had...

This is something I learned the hard way and hopefully, I didnt set my cigars back too far with my uneducated stupidity about venting the a/c duct. During the cold months, I just vented the a/c duct into the garage and it worked just fine. The outside of the room was not too hot from the...

Ok, I don't want to sound like a girl here, but I think I made a great discovery for those of us that smoke inside. Maybe I'm the only one that posts here that does, but there may be several lurkers that do too. My girlfriend used to complain when she came over that it smelled like cigar smoke...
