Greetings and Grace to you,
It was a fine day for me, after many months of perusing the art and hobby of Pipe Smoking... my first pipe (a Savinelli Caramella Rustica 611 KS) arrived in the mail today along with a tin of Savinelli Doblone d'Oro. I took the advice of some folks from a previous post on here into what I should do... take it slow and enjoy, have a biscuit with it. What a treat. I sat on my front porch with some Russel's Reserve Bourbon and my go to snack (Great Value Pretzel Rods) by my side as I packed and smoked my first pipe. Things went well I think. I had to relight (using matches) 9 times but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the taste of the tobacco along with my drink and snack. I look forward to many more evenings of enjoying this new hobby and experiencing what it has to offer for me. Grateful for your help thus far and I look forward to getting to know you more.
Sincerely,
Jesse
