  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

TAD In Remission

Was cleaning my basement and found 5 unopened tins and a few jars of pipe tobacco from when I caught the TAD.

I still smoke my pipe regularly, but it seems my TAD is in remission as I can't seem to bring myself to buy any more. Got enough to last me at least until next winter at current consumption rates, but despite deals and stuff, I just don't feel like buying.

I think part of it is I've found 3 that I like a lot, and pretty much everything else I don't like at all. There's been a few blends that have been kinda neutral, but the majority were slightly offensive. Ennerdale Flake, Davidoff Flake Medallions and Three Nuns pretty much complete me. I occasionally enjoy Nightcap, and I have a briar that really loves smoking Carter Hill, but both of those are rare occasion. The Ennerdale is my go-to, with the DFM being a treat, and the 3N is kinda the backup when I can't decide.

Guess I'm in remission. It's been a while since I've bought a cigar too. Just doesn't feel right.

Everything is cyclical brother... and when it's not, its simply the new normal.

It's great you have found what you want to enjoy regularly! Routine is stability my brother :)!! Woot.

Just kinda hoping it's a remission and not a cure...
I don't think I smoked a single cigar for a three month period this winter. I was wondering myself if I was on the road to... "cure." Then I found the pipe, and spring. I was cured of the cure my friend lol!!
