    Prince Andrew - First Impressions

    I will admit, I have never tried Prince Albert. Its nicotine content is always listed as mild and that is a turn off for me unless it's aromatic in which case I mix it with 5 brothers. However, Russ's new match bled for PA called Prince Andrew was listed as having a medium nicotine content so...

    Star Wars Darth Vader Pipe [pic heavy]

    I just received my Darth Vader pipe that I commissioned from Altinok pipes. It certainly is not a clencher. It's quite large. But with the release of the new movie December 18th of this year, I'll be smoking it. By the way, if you are not a fan, I've already heard endless jokes from my fiancee...

    Smoking 9 Year Old Erinmore Flake

    I cracked open a tin of Erinmore Flake that I was given to me by a forum member (thanks mrenglish). I was a little hesitant as I earlier smoked some that was 12 years old, and it was not that great. Maybe too much aging. Well, not so with the 9 year tin. The flake tends to crumble, but it's...

    Meerschaum Question

    My meerschaum bug is going strong. I have a question for you experienced meerschaum owners. Can I display the meers on a rack with my briar pipes, or do you suggest always keeping them in the case?

    So I Tried Deer Tongue (Crooner)

    I have been wanting to try out this deer tongue for a while so i ordered 1oz of Crooner from smokingpipes. Many have said that you either love it or hate it. I will have to say that's not true. I'm indifferent. It was not the horrible thing I have heard it described by many. It does have an...

    Italian Christmas PAD

    Merry Christmas to me. I am lavishing in my love of Italian pipes. The first one, a Caminetto Christmas pipe. this will be my second year in a row purchasing a Caminetto Christmas pipe.

    GLP Sextant

    I just finished my first tin of this and was getting ready to write a "highly recommended" review on tobaccoreviews.com. Well, I did do that. I loved this stuff. However, it is the first tobacco that my girlfriend says is strong and maybe best smoked outside. Now I have smoked many blends in...

    Smoking Indoors in Slovakia

    In Bratislava for the weekend. Lots of closed in "outdoor" smoking areas in the bars and restaurants. So nice to sit back relax and smoke indoors. I was in a bar where I saw cigarettes, cigars, hukkahs, and me with my pipe.

    The First Smoke in a Castello

    I have heard from pipe pundits, including Greg Pease I believe, about pipes that smoke great from the first smoke. No breaking in required. I have never experienced this, until now. I recently received a new Castello Sea Rock Billiard KKKK. The very first smoke, and the others that followed...

    London Pipe Shops

    I travel quite often to London and Munich on business. I just have to say that the pipe shops in London are disappointing. I have visited four several times on my trips. They are: Dunhill, J.J. Fox, Davidoff, and Segar & Snuff. Forget Dunhill, its a clothing shop that has some Dunhill pipes...

    My New Ardor Urano Partially Sandblasted Rhodesian

    I just had to take advantage of the 15% off Italian estates at smokingpipes.com. Damn this PAD but a good sale is a good sale. It was unsmoked as well.

    My Local B&M

    Went to my local B&M yesterday (Strauss tobacco in Cincinnati). It's not the best pipe shop in the world, but I love it. I had not been in a while, it was good see everyone and sit down for a smoke and a chat. One thing I love about them is they often have a special seasonal blend. Right now...
