A Timely Smoke

3 Comments

There are more than a few factors to consider when reaching for a pipe. Do I want to smoke an English blend or Virginia tobaccos? Am I in the mood for a sandblast or does my hand want a smooth finish? Bent or straight? Do my hands need to be free for most of the smoke? ... Read More

Brave, impetuous and dramatically gallant, Sir Walter Ralegh (his own spelling for his name) is perhaps best known to readers here as the European alpha smoker. He's the man who popularized smoking in the old world and whose image has been emblematic of the tobacco that bears his name since before any of us can remember. ... Read More

Smoking Is The Art

Smoking Is The Art

This weekend I showed my wife a 110-year-old Barling, a pipe in pristine condition, one dressed in a few lovely silver adornments, which is something I like in a pipe right now. The pipe didn't belong to me, and to the best of my appraisal it appeared unsmoked. "If that were mine, I'd smoke the hell out of it!" I shouted ... Read More

Excommunication By Chicken

When I was a boy in a little farm village in upstate New York, my grandfather and the 10 Tobys (all of his dogs were named Toby) were unceremoniously and permanently expelled from church, much to my grandfather's vexation. He cared nothing for his own religious instruction, but, because he wasn't particularly expert in the ... Read More

My tobacco is disappearing, and after exhaustive investigation, I now know why: Tobacco vampires. It was difficult to believe at first, but my research has provided hard data sets that are impossible to interpret otherwise.
