Hello everyone,
I just began smoking a pipe about a month ago after my father, who is 82, brought me his collection (ten or so) or pipes that he used to smoke during the 70s-80s as a lawyer in Los Angeles. He hasn't smoked them in twenty years or so, so I thought that I'd give them a try. I've been cleaning them up and trying them with a few different tobaccos--so far, English blends such as Skiff, Squadron Leader, and My mixture seem to be working well for me. I've been trying some Vapers, but so far, I don't think my technique is where it needs to be for me to really enjoy them. In any event, I've really found pipe smoking to be more enjoyable than cigars, which I enjoy from time to time.
It's pretty near impossible to smoke anywhere outside of my backyard here in San Francisco at this point (with the exception of the Occidental Cigar Bar and 850 Cigar Bar). I hope to make it up to Telford's in the North Bay at some point soon when they hold their pipe club meetings.
