Holy moly those Wiebe pipes are so loving tight.

Glad to hear GQ is solid - I may do one of those Falcons and then if I like it pull up a Wiebe.

I also just realized I can throw those metal systems in my ultrasonic cleaner, which is fantastic. I'm absolutely going for it!

Yeah people either seem to love or hate the look of the Wiebe pipes and I definitely fall into the "they're rad" camp, I dig the look. I've got the full size bent and would recommend it, only comment is it dangles a bit oddly if you clench it. I have both a straight and bent Falcon and like em both, main pro of the Falcon is they're easier to clean out mid-smoke if you get a gurgle (twist off the bowl, dab reservoir with a bit of paper towel, twist back on and keep going). Oh only note if you get a Falcon is you may want to pick up some of the Falcon-brand pipe cleaners as well, they need super thin ones.

I like the following:
Cigars - mostly cubans but im up for trying some new world poo poo. I have a love/hate relationship with Nicaraguan sticks but if you are dead set on proving my preferences wrong, bring it!
I usually dig Connecticuit/Colorado wrappers but i will literally try anything as long as its main tasting note isn't black pepper. I like fruit flavors and cereal/bread notes in my sticks.
I like corona gorda, robusto, lonsdales and toros. Perfectos are also cool. Jaw breakers are generally reserved for custom rolled cubans
I could use a nice guillotine or a perfect draw but they aren't super important since V cut everything
I like hot sauces, dried meats and black coffee
My only hobbies are cigars and hunting

For anyone participating in secret Santa, please indicate if you're ok receiving alcohol or nsfw items. I know we have some sober goons in here, and I'd hate to send booze to someone who might not want the temptation, or a weird porno tape to someone who's opening their gift in the local convent.

For the record, I'm fine with receiving both. Let's get weird!

Ha! Sure do! LAT54s are shipping today and I'm really thrilled to have em back.

I got the Davidoff Nicaragua Primeros in yesterday, and they're quite good. $3/ea isn't half bad. Had one with coffee on the drive into the office today.

Finally a Davidoff worth the money :v:

Smoked my first Davidoff anything last night, did an Escurio petit robusto. It was pouring rain and a little windy so I had some minor burn issues but it was overall a very enjoyable cigar. Tons of smoke. Mostly salt and citrus flavors with a very light vanilla (angel food cake?) flavor that would pop up once and a while. Enjoyable but probably not worth the Davidoff markup

I'm mainly a pipe smoker, but have volunteered to get me and my bro a half decent cigar for a night out next week. Any recommendations for something flavourful and available in the UK? Both ex cig smokers but drink will be involved so nothing too heavy on the nic. I appreciate that this is an almost impossible question 🙂

Secret Santa infocards have been sent out! Please let me know if you signed up but did not receive a santee, or if anything else looks funny. Don't forget to post in the thread when you send out your box, and especially when you receive one.

Try to keep it in the ballpark of $30! And happy holidays all you tobacco-goons.

I have shone the cigar symbol in the Discord thread to see if anyone can assist you. I know we have a couple of Eurogoons.

Most Partagas are likely a good choice - they're strong enough to get through most drinks but most regular production aren't overpowered or anything.

I'm a nicotine goblin, though, my next pick would be an Upmann. From what I've heard it's hard to get anything but Cubans in Ireland, I don't imagine it's dramatically different in the UK.

Smoking some HH Pure Virginia. If you want a widely available straight VA that stacks up to much of the poo poo that's constantly out of stock, buy some of this and forget about it for a couple years.

Re-upping on my pipe tobacco stuff because it's winter, I guess.

This morning a big rear end tin of Seattle Pipe Club's Plum Pudding, which may be my favorite English arrived on my doorstep along with some of their Seattle Evening which is drying out now. I also got a tin of Balkan Sasieni and

Holy loving moly

This smells insane. Super strong tin note, I really can't wait to see what it does to my awful body.

Gonna snag a few super cheap filtered Missouri Meerschaum pipes so I don't worry about ghosting flavors into my favorites, along with some Mac Baren HH Rustica, which uses nicotiana rustica, the old stuff with a much higher nicotine content and an overall humidor refill today.

Seattle evening was really good, developed some good spice as the bowl went down. Loading up some Balkan now while I wait for some custom rolls to get delivered

E: I thought the Balkan was going to be really spicy, but it's smooth as my freshly shaved bottom. It's really really really good. I can really puff it down without cooking it and it's got this pillowy texture. Definitely keeping a tin of this around.

That's a Govee hygrometer/thermometer I got from Amazon. It logs temp and RH and syncs with an app via Bluetooth. I've found it very handy for tracking my RH over time.
