    New Pipe

    Third pipe in the collection. Went for Nightcap, came home with a new estate pipe. Can’t seem to find the manufacturer of the pipe. Says “Smoking Corner London made” Maybe some of you have heard of it, but can’t find anything on the internet. Got it for equivalent of 30$

    South-Africa is quite westernized in a alot of ways but also not. If you look at the middle upperclass then it most definitely is. This for instance, this is one of many of this type of houses in an area about 2km from where I stay. In the mid late 1900s, South Africa’s economy was stronger...

    Thank you! I also still rotate with Connoisseurs Choice and still enjoy it. Would love to try Elizabethan Mixture. Unfortunately the only non aromatic Peterson we have are the formerly Dunhill blends: 965, EMP and Nightcap. Do you know whete Sturk’s tobacco is produced?

    My First Few Months as a Pipe Smoker.

    Hi Marie. I think if you go to the poorer townships there will be a lot of that, and I do know that people sell single cigarettes on the street, but in middle and upper class you will see quite a similar lifestyle to a first world country, with the difference being that there would be more...
