    Drucquer & Sons: First Amendment

    First Amendment is a winner for me. I am on to my fourth tin of this blend and am loving it. I get a sweet and smooth Assam tea kind of smoke out of this. Has latakia but not overwhelming amount for my taste. Burns perfect right out of the tin with some rubbing out.

    How Long Have You Been Smoking a Pipe? And Who Cares?

    Some people have 30 years of experience and some have one year of experience 30 times. Old codgers are a great resource to ask about pipes and tobacco from yesteryear. Great stories, different times, unusually people are brought up and add to the enjoyment here. I say yes as to whether...

    A Celebratory Smoke

    Congrats on the new job. I strongly recommend the p-lip and the system pipe for all Peterson’s. Once I got used to them there was no going back.

    Any Idea When the Next GH and Co Drop Will Be?

    Ennerdale, Coniston Plug, BCF x 10, Glengarry, and Louisiana Flake. For starters. GH delivery was this fall, then by the holidays and now January. I don't like the trend.

    Gawith, Hoggarth, & Co. Importation Troubles?

    Any new information on GH shipping to US? I ran into Mark Mormar from Laudisi last week at a local pipe show and he seem to imply December, but didn't commit strongly to receiving a shipment.

    Laudisi Distribution Group (LDG) Will Distribute Gawith & Hoggarth Brand Tobacco to U.S. Tobacconists & Tobacco Retailers

    This is good news. Hopefully we will stop seeing "Out of Stock" on all the Gawith Hoggarth blends in the near future.

    Peterson P-lip Question

    I have a bunch of Pete's. Some are P lip. One in particular, a sitter 306, is a P lip. It is my best smoker. I'm a wet smoker and the military mount with the system pipes are helping with that particular affliction.

    New Hampshire Peterson Pipe and Tobacco Show

    I have heard from an Ashton representative that they are planning a Peterson Pipe and Tobacco show on St. Patrick's Day at Twins Smoke Shop in Londonderry, NH. The time is noon to 5 pm. Should be a great get together with some pipes and tobacco from the Irish-Peterson. Looking forward to it.

    Any New Hampshire Clubs?

    Well, a little late in reporting the latest pipe club meeting. We met on April 8th at Federal Cigar in Portsmouth, NH. Greg hosted again and we had about 8 people. I tried GL Pease Gaslight. Awesome brownie, cut thin and rubbed out. The bowl lasted an hour. Finished up with Mac Baren Vanilla...

    Any New Hampshire Clubs?

    March 11th at 7 pm, Portsmouth Pipe Club meeting at Federal Cigar in Portsmouth, NH. The last few months we have had snow on the day of the meeting, so a low turnout. Looking to turn the corner to spring with tomorrow's meeting. Weather is in the 50's F, from below 30 F for the last two months.

    Any New Hampshire Clubs?

    Another get together at Federal Cigar in Portsmouth happening this evening. It may be a snowy night, but some are expected to brave it for another relaxing evening with Pipe Smokers. There is talk of a field trip to L.J. Perreti's in Boston in the mix, so some heavy planning may take place...

    Sutliff Maple Street Tobacco Review

    The stars are lining up. I just got Maple Street in a great buy one, get one free, local deal. And I happen to ask for a Peterson 106 Christmas 2013 pipe to celebrate the beginning year of the hobby for me. Great article, paints a fantastic picture. Coke in the morning! but I digress.
