    Anyone believe piping and cigars simply do not mix?

    I feel like I can still taste whatever my last bowl of pipe tobacco was, 2-3 days later. I tend to smoke the pipes, or smoke cigars in stretches but I rarely do both within the same week.

    What percentage is CC s ?

    30% ish. Fluctuates depending on when I buy/receive boxes. Don't keep more than maybe 2-300 cigars on hand at any time so it's easy to skew in either direction.

    B&M vs. Internet

    I also haven't bought any cigars in about a year.

    B&M vs. Internet

    Before I setup ventilation in the garage, I used to go to my B&M about once a week to sit and smoke. Didn't keep any on hand at home either, if I did it was less than 5 and only in the summer when I'd have a cigar sitting by firepit. But, at double the average online price or more on most...

    You know your comfortable with pipes when

    I smoked pipes almost exclusively for a couple months before I heated and exhausted my garage. Went with a cigar and burned my palm when I reached up to cup the bowl of the pipe that wasn't there.

    Physical space, yes. But money, time, continued interest, etc no.

    Adventures in home rolling

    Every time I visit this thread I'm tempted to jump two feet in. But, I really don't have any room for another hobby. Maybe someday. Beautiful work you guys are doing.

    Smoking Vs Collecting

    I'm a collector-type person, and have been tempted many a time to buy LE/HTF stuff to say I had it, but in the end, it really does nothing for me but leave me with cigars I sit on for years waiting for the "right time" to smoke em. I think my love of beers helped me to keep myself from going...

    Large Desktop Humidor

    Prestige imports are the cheapo China humidors. Not even in the same category as a craftsman made humidor like DM.

    pic of your four legged smoking buddy

    Cat decided to join me. Must be spooked by something. Wife n boy outta town. Cat doesn't usually hang out with people. He's a stray I took in 10 years ago. Don't care for cats, but couldn't give him away after I took him in. Maybe just lonely with an empty house.

    With thanks to @Cricken this is fantastic. I've only had one Caldwell prior to this, and was unimpressed. This one's perfect. Rich creamy texture, no bite on retrohale, vanilla and cedar dominate. Love it.

    "Cigars are puke"

    This. Couple things came to mind when I read that article. The first was on two occasions at outdoor adult venues (both beer fests) where someone, somewhere, was smoking a crap cigar. Couldn't see who it was, but could smell it quite strongly and it was indeed foul. I made a comment about...
