    Hobbit Weed is No More

    True. The local B&M here is a great little place--mostly cigars but has a small selection of tinned pipe tobacco. Take away the tobacco and there aren't enough ashtrays, lighters, humidors and cleaning supplies to keep them in business--and that's not their bread and butter anyway. To say...

    Hobbit Weed is No More

    I had no idea the B&M itself was shutting down. After reading their announcement, I feel badly for the daughter that had intended to inherit/run the biz. Sad times. Plus, losing a 20 yr business must make the local community feel like they've lost a friend.

    New Blend From Sam Gawith & The Danish Pipe Shop.

    Ditto. I ordered a couple tins each of Beginner's Luck and Brown Sugar Flake from the Danish Pipe shop, didn't specify a particular shipping method and the packet arrived just fine.

    P&C Wild Hare Pipe Tobacco

    Has anyone tried this yet--what were your impressions of the smoke? Is it similar to other current Lane offerings?

    Altinok and Bekler: new to me & (as yet) unsmoked

    I am stoked to start smoking the Altinok--the 'kidney' case should keep it safe when I'm on the road and lugging around a bag.

    A Meer Poker Nosewarmer

    Updated pics look great--thanks!

    How much to buy?

    I find I have a similar situation, as above, in terms of tastes changing--or perhaps more accurately, wanting very different blends at different times, as various moods or weather strike. Add to that enticing new blends being made available--I don't have many old-standbys. My 'cellar' is more...

    A Meer Poker Nosewarmer

    Love that nosewarmer so much, I'm on the lookout for a meer poker I can convert. Everything about the size, shape just strikes a chord. How's it coloring a few months into smoking it? Any updated pics?

    Altinok and Bekler: new to me & (as yet) unsmoked

    Hey community! Meerschaum pipes are a new experience for me; I've recently picked up two lovely examples. One is an older CAO Bekler. The simplicity and clean lines of the pipe appealed to me--though not too large, it has a deep bowl. It came in a form-fitting black case that keeps it safe and...

    Pipes and Cigars low stock

    After ordering many times from P&C I've been prompted twice now by their 3rd-party service that's attempting to verify my age. I haven't had this irritating problem previously via P&C, and I have never been challenged by any other site period. I cancelled one order because I didn't realize they...

    Organizing Your Open Tobacco Tins

    Hey Bulldog. I have a 3-drawer unit similar to bluegrassbrian's. Pros/Cons, YMMV. Pros--easy-access 3-drawer set-up, easy to throw a lot of jars in each drawer (roughly separated by tob type). Inexpensive, light and small--can always be re-purposed for other storage uses. A big PRO for me? It...

    Troubled by the tomato: to keep or not to keep?

    Thank you for the kind welcome, and thanks all for the comments. I've had this pipe out all day, mulling it over. I agree with everyone about having a different selection of styles/sizes as mood or tobacco type strikes you. Here's another picture of the GBD next to a KK Castello.

    Troubled by the tomato: to keep or not to keep?

    The tom in question. When I hold it, I randomly hear "my precious" in the back of my head...

    Your Corn Cob Pipe in action

    Done chopping more wood to lay up for winter. Time to relax.

    Troubled by the tomato: to keep or not to keep?

    So I have this GBD tomato. It's a bigger pipe than I usually smoke. I typically prefer smaller pipes/shorter smokes. It's a different shape from what I usually gravitate towards. It's the largest pipe I own. I can't picture myself smoking from it. And yet, every time I get ready to let it go...

    Hello community, Long-time recipient of great information from this forum, finally decided to register. Both my dad and grandfather smoked pipes and I'm a happy inheritor of some of theirs. While carefully cleaning these pipes (built-up gunk & green stems), I've added a few new pipes along the...
