Would much prefer From Beyond to rear it’s head, I thought Eight State was absolutely meh.- Kingsley

Estervals and Shipping to the US
How much did you order? It seems like the heavier the package, the more likely one is to have problems.- Kingsley

Best B&M’s on the East Coast?
Thank you, Mark, that’s one hell of a great start for our trip. I’m originally from Myrtle Beach and the surrounding areas, and I must agree that Charleston is quite wonderful.- Kingsley

Best B&M’s on the East Coast?
Hello all, In January, my friend Harry and I plan to be taking a vacation, and we’ll be traveling from South-East Pennsylvania to Southern South Carolina, and we figured we’d visit every solid B&M we could along the way. We already plan on hitting a few in PA before leaving (Boswell’s and...- Kingsley

Any Love for Penny Farthing?
I wouldn’t say much negative or positive for my tastes, really. I picked up a 3 yr. old tin from my nearest tobacconist and got to smoking. Of course, it being a shag cut, I didn’t expect much from the time it’d spent in the tin, and looking back I believe I assumed rightly. I felt as if the DFK...- Kingsley

What is Your Worst Pipe Buying Mistake?
Honestly, my biggest mistake was waiting as long as I did to pick up a meer. When I picked up pipe smoking again a little over a year ago, I got a MM Bent Diplomat. It was such a step up from my shoddy, taped-together Estate Dr. Grabow Riviera Apple, and then, slowly but surely, smoking became...- Kingsley

What are You Reading Now?
An Evening with Lincoln by Sherwin Cody. My copy is nearly pocket-sized, published in 1927. It’s not too shabby, and seems like it’ll be an interesting quick read. Also, I too can’t recommend Junji Ito’s work enough, it’s simply incredible.- Kingsley

Recent TAD Pick-Ups
Not a bad day for the cellar. 6x Marlin Flake, 4x Benjamin Hartwell Signature Blend (3x 2017, 1x 2004), and a single tin of Astley’s No. 44 from 2017 that I intend to delve into this evening.- Kingsley

Show Off Your Meerschaum Pipes Here!
This marks a couple of firsts, first ALTINAY, first army mount, and first meer touted as “translucent”. We’ll see how it goes, but, from what I can see, it seems to be a quality piece. Love how the pipe looks, from the stem shape to the slightly bent bowl. It’s light, but has a lovely little...- Kingsley

Social or Anti-Social Pipe Smoker?
I prefer only one person to accompany me if at all, as I find it’s a tad difficult to keep a conversation straight with a good many people speaking in-between puffs.- Kingsley

My First Altinay - My Review
Oh, of course, and thanks again, Said. Trust me, it’s barely a complaint, more of an observation. It was just surprising for the price that it wasn’t in a case, not that I didn’t read over the stats before purchasing. It’s really no worry. I’m in no way trying to throw shade, you and your father...- Kingsley

My First Altinay - My Review
I get it, man, I recently picked up one of the most expensive pipes they had on offer, and was surprised to find that its main protection is a skin pouch. I’d personally much prefer the durability of a to-fit pipe case.- Kingsley
