61 years old first started smoking a pipe approximately forty years ago around 1983 / 1984 smoked for approximately four years. Began smoking a pipe again in August of 2023. I prefer English, Balkin and Oriential blends. I have a small pipe collection, Peterson, Savinelli and two no name pipes from an English estate. very nice pipes but most certianly they are seconds. I want to learn from all of you and grow in this outr beloved hobby.
