    Atlanta Area Good Pipe B&Ms

    Puff N Stuff is an excellent choice. It's too late for the OP now, but for future reference if you've got the time consider driving up to Smitty's Cigar Lounge up in Gainseville - it's about an hour north of the city but definitely worth the drive.

    Brief GH Brown Flake Unscented Review

    (Posted before I read the entire thread) My last order of Dark Birdseye Vintage Cut had zero floral/aromatic essence. Fantastic blend, btw. Before that I did have an order of Louisiana Flake that smelled of my grandmother's hand soap, so some cross contamination happened. I may order...

    The Most Disappointing Tobacco

    I'll throw another out there - Haunted Bookshop. It had been hyped up quite a bit as an all day blend of great quality. I don't doubt the quality of the leaf, but if someone made an aromatic from durian fruit, it would be Haunted Bookshop.

    The Most Disappointing Tobacco

    The one time, years ago, I was able to get some Stonehaven I wasn't particularly impressed. It wasn't bad, but to my palate, didn't live up to the hype.

    How Many In Your Rotation...

    Bugs me to have too many options - not sure why. So, I keep 4 or 5 blends near my pipes. The cellar stays in a different part of the house, out of sight. Staples are old production Carter Hall and Lane's 1Q. To keep things interesting I usually have an open VA blend plus a lighter Latakia...

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2023?***

    Mix of Carter Hall and University Flake in a new-to-me estate 4103 Chestnut I picked up this weekend. The rim is a tad damaged but the price was so attractive I couldn’t resist.

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2023?***

    I’ve been trying an experiment to see how much I can learn about a blend by sticking with a single blend in a single pipe until I’m through the tin. To keep things interesting I’m bumping it up to two blend/pipe combos at a time. Having said that, Haunted Bookshop in a Big Ben churchwarden:

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2023?***

    Hello Everyone, I’ve been away for a bit. Lots of changes and work and I haven’t been up for posting lately. Things are settling down again thankfully, so here goes… Consummate Gentleman in a Sav 320 with a cup of strong Colombian. Have a great weekend, everyone!

    ***What Are You Smoking, April 2023?***

    And on to a bowl of Windjammer in a Stanwell. I’m adopting a one-tin-at-time approach in an attempt to whittle down my collection of open jars.

    ***What Are You Smoking, April 2023?***

    Enjoying a combination of Gray Ghost ( the last of the tin) and some Windjammer in the Sav 677 Saturnia. Also having some work done at the house including a new fence and patio. Big project!

    Savinelli lines exclusive to Germany?

    Yep that was it @AroEnglish Much appreciated!

    Savinelli lines exclusive to Germany?

    Hi Everyone, A week or two ago I followed an ad from here to a German pipe retailer. They had one or two Savinelli lines that were only distributed in Germany. One was a smooth finish with a red cumberland-esque acrylic stem similar to the Harp line from Peterson. I can't find that site now...

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2023?***

    First pipe of the month for me. ‘Been a little under the weather lately… Gray Ghost in a Neerup with a nice local lager to wash it down.

    Oil cured pipes besides Dunhill/Ashton?

    Yes, I think we’re on the same page. In fact, I think Wiley worked for Edward’s quite a while ago and that’s how he got his start?

    Oil cured pipes besides Dunhill/Ashton?

    I don't think Edward's makes their own pipes anymore... Last time I was at the store in Tampa they had a few original Edward's in a case and everything on the wall was of Italian original.
