    Show us the Pipe that Started Your Smoking Adventure!

    I love all the stories about everyone's first pipe, especially the ones from heirloomed pipes. I don't come from a smoking family, I'm most certainly the only smoker in my close relative small circle, so I don't have a fancy story on it. I just wanted a change from cigar smoking which got kind...

    New Year's Pipe Resolution

    Since I commited to one pipe this year I will only buy tobacco. I'm not opening anything from my cellar this year as I have plenty of jars of test blends and gifts from the fine people on this forum open to last me 2023. If I do have to open something it will be a test blend again. What my aim...

    Kendal Cream Flake by Samuel Gawith

    Oh but it is certainly enticing! Had one sample, but for what I can remember it had nutty notes with a creamy finish and it somehow coated my mouth like a cream liquor which reminded me of Baileys. I didn't get any floral notes from it, but when there is booz as a casing or flavoring thats what...

    Kendal Cream Flake by Samuel Gawith

    I had one sample of KC Flake and I loved it instantly. I do like this tobacco and dislike Marlboro reds. For me it's very celarable.

    Your Blend Of The Year 2022

    My smoke of the year was my only bowl of mccranies red ribbon from 2012. The pop of the tin, the smell off it, the perfect moisture content, the amazing flavor, all in all a great smoke. I'm going to slowly savor the 2 ounces I have in 2023. For what is available now my smokes of the year where...

    Founders Beer!

    I enjoyed the dirty bastard and the oatmeal stout. Once in a while I like some wild flavorings added to a stout, I think I still have a banana or milkshake stout somewhere. I'm normally not razy about coconut, but added to a stout it was really nice last time.

    The (Un)Official PipesMagazine Secret Santa Thread 2022!

    And round 2 by my secret santa is also arrived. @vates outdid himself, thanks again Serge! Sad to see none of my presents will arrive before Christmas, nothing I could about it, but still I am truly sorry. Again 2 blends I didn't try yet, a box of habanos cigars and my preferred pipe cleaner!

    Golden Age of Pipe Tobacco

    My statement was more about a ten year old tin now vs putting away a tin of fresh tobacco now for 10 years. People harken back on the quality of tobaccos from yesteryear. While I didn't smoke at that time so I have no really experience to back it up, I think there are some very good blends now...
