Rope pipe tobacco is something that I've never tried. After reading some postings about rope tobacco, I'm interested in trying it but need some guidance as to which ones are good and where to get them.:confused:

I think I have a few ropes hanging around if you want to try before you buy. I should have some Black Irish X and a couple different flavored ones.

Thanks, I'd like that; I'll PM you. They call it twist; is rope the same thing? I've tried twist chewing tobacco but never one made for smoking.

Sam Gawith Brown No. 4 is good.
Here's an experiment - I've tried it, it works! :)
Shave your chest.
Smoke a couple bowls of brown no. 4.
All your chest hair will have grown back (not recommended for the ladies)

Rum Twist and Brown Bogie are the business. Look up my review of Black Irish XX for an accurate picture of that one. I also keep Kendal Twist on hand.
Out of all of them, I really love rum twist. That stuff is just plain awesome.
Black Irish XX was it to much smoke or to heavy?

Just unique. The description of prime rib is spot on. Well worth a try to see it.

Smoking pipes.com and 4noggins are my go-to, mostly because I live in WA state. Plus they are great.

The only other rope I found was some Sweet Maple. At one time I had 5 or 6 but I guess I smoked more than I remembered. :pipe:

Cool cool. I'll send him some Happy Bogie and Rum Twist then.
How is the Sweet Maple? Can you actually taste the maple? Also have you ever chewed it?

The maple is real subtle in smell. I have only smoked it a couple times and don't really recall tasting it in the smoke. BUT was working in the shop making stuff on the lathe not paying much attention to anything except what I was making and drinking a soda at the same time. There may be a hint of maple taste when smoking it if you were to pay attention. :p
I have not cut off a hunk to chew it yet either.

You quite welcome. And be careful with the black X, it can put a grown man down!

I smoked a bowl of the Sweet Maple this afternoon in a Charatan second. I actually started to smoke it last night but realized as I was cutting it that it needed some serious air time. It was very satisfying from the start. The body of the smoke was substantial right after getting a good light, body that I usually don't get to until I am 10-20% into a bowl of most other tobaccos. Maybe I didn't cut it correctly because I had some trouble keeping it lit. When it comes to smoking twist/rope, I am a newbie. I enjoyed the flavor; didn't really detect maple but lots of tobacco flavor. When I got down to half a bowl, I stirred it up with my pipe tool, tamped it down lightly and fired it up again. It continued to be satisfying to the end.
