    ***What are You Smoking, March 2022?***

    Awesome! I think it will make my bulk list. I purchased quite a few tins during the last C&D tin sale. I believe I bought 3, perhaps 4, tins of Habana Daydream.

    FOMO - Frog, Esoterica &?

    I'm still new to pipes and pipe tobacco, so I have been experimenting and learning. A friend from another forum (the one who told me about this forum) was very generous in introducing me to the hobby and sent a "welcome package," if you will. He included some McClelland 5100 Red Cake and it blew...

    One Tobacco To Rule Them All

    I am still learning and experimenting, being relatively new to pipe smoking. At the moment, I have really been enjoying Peterson Nightcap and Plum Cake Bourbon Barrel Aged. Having to choose between those two, I would pick the Plum Cake Bourbon.

    Looking For A Really Good Pipe Lighter

    Vector Pipe lighter has been pretty good to me for about 10 years. I did break the tamper trying to pry open a tin just recently so that was a bummer.

    C&D Folklore

    I just received my brick of Folklore today! #58/1000. I also managed to get two tins of the Small Batch Carolina Red Flake w/ Perique . I can smell the Folklore through the bag, but the seal seems good. I am not in a rush to put this in a jar quite yet. I will probably try this over the weekend...

    Hello From El Paso Texas!

    Welcome! I am also in El Paso. I’m honestly shocked at how many El Paso folks (currently and previously) I’m seeing on here. I have not tried Early Morning Pipe yet, however I am obsessed with Nightcap. I have a few tins in the mail arriving this week. Hope to see you around the forums and if...

    Savinelli Porto Cervo Mortise Break

    Just wanted to provide an update. TP reached back out to me and sent me a return label for the damaged pipe. They mentioned this type of damage is not typically covered, but were willing to help me out. I will be getting store credit which I intend to buy another Port Cervo in a different...

    Savinelli Porto Cervo Mortise Break

    Thanks for everyone's replies so far. I purchased this pipe from an online retailer (TP). I looked up their policy which states 30 days, but I have reached out to see if there is anything they can do for me. I also looked into Savinelli's website and they show 60 days for defects, however I did...

    Savinelli Porto Cervo Mortise Break

    Hello everyone. So I just had a bummer moment with the pipe I purchased to kick off 2022. I removed the stem from the stummel on my new Savinelli Porto Cervo to run a cleaner through it. When I went to put it back together, the mortise (I hope I identified that correctly) snapped off. The pipe...
