Hey, it’s nice to meet everyone I’m Justin. I thought I would introduce myself. I am brand spankin new to the pipe smoking world/community. I’m mature yet young for a brand new pipe smoker, College student =P. I hope everyone is doing well tonight. It is sort of overwhelming with the vast amount of information I can learn about pipes and pipe tobacco as well as cleaning pipes and what not. I’m not sure of where to begin but I will say that I love sweet tasting tobacco and aroma’s, smooth yet more of a full flavored. To start off, I will say that I love to death Turkish tobacco it’s amazing I think personally. Even though it is not pipe tobacco when I had my first Camel Turkish Royal I bummed from a friend I thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. The smell, taste, full flavored, yet smoothness are what I truly love about it. I just thought I would let the community know so it helps me with possibly future purchases from pipesandcigars.com. I am a total newbie and just winged it last night I was not sure of what type of pipe tobacco to purchase. I don’t really have time to sit down for hours and read online and reviews. I went ahead and bought last night McClelland Frog Morton’s Cellar and Frog Morton on the Bayou due to the popularity and how it is highly recommended from videos on YouTube and some research on the internet I did.
A good friend smokes rolled cigarettes and he had some Peter Stokkebye Amsterdam so he gave me a little bit. I’m somewhat sad today because I bought my first pipe a $7.50 Corn Cob basic pipe from my local smoke shop. On the first tobacco bowl the side of the Corn Cob Pipe the Bowl area turned black and as well another area of the bowl had a hole in its side. After the second tobacco bowl it went up in flames =/ =( it fell apart and had to put it under my hose in water. It’s somewhat discouraging with my first pipe and especially trying to light tobacco outside it can be hard and a challenge with matches haha. I guess I will not be purchasing from that tobacco shop again. I went ahead and got some basic BJ Long 80’s pipe cleaners and a pipe tool accessory to push down the ash. I purchased this today at the smoke shop as well. I hope to hear back from everyone soon god bless!
