Just Learned that my Great-Grandfather Smoked a Pipe!
I hope you find one of his pipes also and maybe a clue as to what tobacco he smoked. I only knew my step-grandfather on my mother's side and he was a pipe smoker. After he passed in 1979, my aunt gave me three of his pipes. I kept one and gave the other two to my two sons. He smoked George...- pappymac

C&D Golden Days of Yore is out
I think McClelland's Christmas Cheer was the only straight Virginia Christmas blend. It was good but didn't make me think of Christmas. I also have three tins of C&D's Jolly Old St. Nicholas and one Corn Cob Pipe & A Button Nose. Personally, I prefer the Rattray's Winter Editions (made by...- pappymac

Savinelli Saint Nicholas 2024 🎅🏼
Nothing about those pipes even whispers "I'm a Christmas pipe." I like Savinellis but I don't like the stems on those. -

Don't Purchase Meerschaum From This Retailer!! Buyer Beware
Do you know for sure that this is Turkish Meerschaum? "Meerschaum deposits have been discovered in various parts of the world such as France, Spain, Morocco, the Republic of South Africa, Greece, and even the United States" according to several websites. From what I've been told, meerschaum...- pappymac

SSJONES Life Update

PipesAndCigars.Com: Are They Trustworthy?
Here's the deal... P&C is a big company which sells products to thousands of pipe and cigar smokers. Probably 10s of thousands. Just because a few forum members have had problems with them doesn't make them a bad company trying to rip-off customers. Do they occasionally have customer service...- pappymac

Opening A Tin? Show Us!
I was in Metairie today so I stopped at Mayan Imports to have a cigar. Then I found a blend I don't remember seeing before, Wessex Campaign so I decided to try a tin. I opened it and found it to be very long dark brown flakes that were bent in half to fit inside the tin. It is extremely wet...- pappymac

Solitary or Social Smoker?
Child, please. Being 50 doesn't make you old. Hell, there are probably a large number of us who wish we were "only 50 years old."- pappymac
