In mid-September I will be in Washington DC for a week. Primarily I will be working, but will have a bit of free time. Is there anything there worth checking out from a pipe/tobacco perspective?

I would walk around the FDA headquarters while smoking my pipe and keep blowing the smoke their way.

In DC proper, check out Georgetown Tobacco (http://www.gttobacco.com/) and Curtis Draper (http://www.wcurtisdraper.com/).
If you can make it to the Virginia side, check out John B. Hayes (http://www.hayestobacconist.com/) and Old Virginia Tobacco Company (http://ovtc.com/), which has several locations.

Being a new pipe smoker, I haven't visited every shop in the DC area yet, but I hear great things about Georgetown Tobacco. One day when I have time I will make my way there. I have nothing but great things to say about John Hayes and Old Virginia Tobacco Company. They have been super helpful to me, and they have some great house blends too.

Let me know your dates and perhaps I can meet you one evening.

JB Hayes is great, but you can't smoke in their new mall location.

Do it and I will buy you a tin, but you have to post a photo in action :puffpipe:

My wife and I did a short trip to DC this summer and I visited the GT shop it's definitely a good stop for a piper.

They have some neat stuff in there like steam punk hats and stuff like that as well

If you hitch up with Al, I might join you as well IF it is a week that I am off working (the week of Labor Day) or the week of the 19th during the day. IM if interested.

Spencer, Al and I have already exchanged PMs. I am there the week of the 19th. If we can arrange a mutually convenient night, I would suggest we go for a steak - on me.

Georgetown tobacco is a nice place to visit... But the old Virginia tobacco company store in pentagon city mall (on the yellow line) is the place I visit daily.... Great crew and the discussions are usually lively
