Tobacco in Germany
In Berlin, my favorite pipe shop is Der Pfeifenladen, very friendly and you can get lots of information about the pipe and tobacco scene in this little Europe. You can find Germains there sometimes, but the 10+ tins will be gone within a few days. The nearby shop, Tabak & Pulver focuses more on...- menuhin

McClelland: "We're Just Going to Close the Doors"
I can see it coming, but not as early as this decade. I just can say thank you and a sad farewell to my beloved American tobacco manufacturer. To remember your blends, I may have to add some Heinz ketchup to my Virgina tobacco.- menuhin

Dunhill Cumberland Conundrum – No COM/Date Stamp
Or they went drinking tea and didn't cum back on that. Or during their tea discussion, it was decided that a date stamp was not necessary on this particular cumberland. Timeless.- menuhin

A Latakia Love Story, What`s Yours?
My first English blend was Butera Pelican. It took me a journey to go from "people smoke this kind of hideous stuff?!" to "English blends are divine and classic".- menuhin

Insanely Cool, and 100% Real
The space mathematicians and engineers in the 21st century are doing such perfect jobs to defy Murphy's law. It looks like every single aspects go smoothly as depicted. I left the questioners of the official stories, also be strategically called out as the "sceptics" by the governments and their...- menuhin

Insanely Cool, and 100% Real
Not before I saw this "100% Real" description did I intend to take a closer look at the possibility of any aspect of that is actually not real. Taking out my Calabash pipe. :puffpipe:- menuhin

What Lighter to Get?
I can't find too many pipe lighters that are of similar form factor to that "Panama Jack" lighter you referred to. I can think of Xikar's pipe lighter, e.g. Xikar Resource pipe lighter and Resource II pipe lighter to be of similar form factor and at around the price range. I don't know if they...- menuhin

Any Stanwell Experts Here That Can Help With Nomenclature?
Not that I am a Stanwell expert, but I like the Denmark period Stanwell as a solid-quality factory brand, which also helped the training and development of mid-late 20th century generations of Danish / Northern European pipe makers. I particularly like the Danish Stanwell in their earlier...- menuhin

Dunhill's (Probably) Last Luxurious Tobacco Pipe Project
When I first noticed a whole shelf is built for a pipe, I wondered what is that about. Not a single bit from a utility perspective of a pipe smoker, I realized, but instead completely an altar for this Eiffel Tower structure and its history. Am I an structural architect / engineer? No. Am I an... -
Dunhill's (Probably) Last Luxurious Tobacco Pipe Project
Perhaps it's still available. Even its certificate is stored in a 445gram hand-crafted sterling silver capsule. If I own articles of this level of beauty and craftsmanship, when I have even the slightest sign of becoming chronically sick due to older age, I would have it immediately donate to... -
Dunhill's (Probably) Last Luxurious Tobacco Pipe Project
It's definitely a display item. Perhaps for someone who can relate to the build or its architecture, and who like pipe smoking and tobacco; the intersect of these two sets make the target group so small that they become China's new millionaires who like shopping and eating in Paris. I have also...
