    Any blenders? Need advice

    I've made some blends I didn't really care for better with additional Latakia, others with Burley or Kentucky, and others with cigar leaf. Really depends on what I don't like about it in the first place.

    Favorite Pipe Shape

    I have more billiards than any other shape. Bulldog/Rhodesian would be a close second.

    Today’s Bowl 2020

    A little experiment with a couple of blends I didn't care for and mixed them together. GLP Abingdon has a bit too much incense flavor to it and C&D Gray Ghost is way too heavy with cigar leaf. Pretty good together, but not something I'll buy again.

    What do you guys think

    I choose neither. Will wait for one that really speaks to me.

    What do you guys think

    Yeah I like the bottom one slightly better too, unfortunately it's no longer available. I was hoping to be swayed towards the top one so I could justify buying it. Lol It's colored meerschaum, made to look like its been handled a bit.

    What do you guys think

    of these 2 pipes. Been kinda interested in the Lee Van Cleef style meerschaum pipes and ran across these from AKB, carved by Muhsin. Can't decide which I like better.

    I think it's more the grading than where it comes from. Some info here: Mark Tinsky - Briar Blocks for Pipe Kits - American Smoking Pipe Co.
