Just received my first order from these folks. Mixed it up with some X-mas Cookie, Cherry Smash, PA Dutch Treat, Pom Holiday, Apple Streudel, and then a tin of Pete's Connoisseur's Choice. They got it out here super fast and the gentleman I spoke to was very polite. Just smoked some of the X-mas cookie and it was quite nice. Now I'm trying to figure out what to smoke next! A big thanks to those fine folks and to those who suggested them!
Hugs all around!

The only bad thing I've heard about them is that they sell all the pipes they list too fast!

Yeah if you want a pipe you need to be ready when they post them and just keep calling and hope the one you want doesn't sell lol.Sometimes you get lucky.Lately I have seen some stay on there for a couple of days though.great pies and great baccy from those folks though I have never had a problem ordering from them.I just got som Christmas Cookie myself along with some northwoods haven't tried them yet though.I keep smoking this Halflings Leaf it is going fast lol.

Pennsylvania Dutch Treat is very nice. The Christmas Cookie was not the mind blowing experience I was kind of expecting, but it is good. Pom Holiday is what's in the pipe right now and it's decent as well.

Looks amazing Dragon,I really like when the stem is polished and the bowl is rustic. Where the two seperate is there a carved ring or does it just stop?

I stopped by the shop a few weeks ago while in the area. Dan and other store

helper I think it was Alex perhaps, both of them great folks...the

shop was a great place...two gents sittig in the front window lounge

, one smoking a pipe the other a cigar...just a wonderful place...wish

I could have spent more time there...so I snagged the rusticated

Volcano, some nice blends; Piper's Pleasure, PA Dutch treat, then

I looked at the bacci shelves...WOW a super nice stock of SG tines,

MC tins, and other greats...also snagged a tin of Best Brown and I

was on my way

I live about 2 hours from Boswell's. Most of our transactions are via telephone & mail but I make several trips to the store every year.

There is no magic formula to their success; just hard work, making the customer feel like a friend instead of a nusiance and excellent service plus quality products.

The represent the ideal of family owned small buisnesses.

Must be nice to be able to sell out of all the pipes you make each week, in 2 hours.
