    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2025?***

    Thanks man. It took awhile to figure out what kind of tobacco smokes best in it but vas and va/pers seem to really shine. I bought it new this December as a birthday gift to myself. Haha.

    More Exclusive in a Savinelli 626 Punto Oro sitting outside watching the horses play (not pictured) on the 160 acre homestead act parcel across the street from my place. Listening to some Robert Lester Folsom too. Life is good.

    Voices From The Past

    What a wonderful piece of oral family history and patch in the mosaic of the human experience. One of my favorite things to listen to on YouTube is interviews of older people recounting memories from different points in their lives. You be sure to treasure those recordings, Jesse.

    Is that pipesdepot/meerschaum gallery? I’ve bought my two Tekins from his eBay shop if it is. When I buy another meer it’ll most likely be from him.

    IPSD PAD: Peterson Newgrange Spigot

    Beautiful choice my friend 👍

    Is a Peterson System Standard Better Than Other Pipes in its Price Range?

    I would go with Savinelli. French pipes are great too but they often use cheap vulcanite in their stems.

    Filtered Pipes, Love Them? Hate Them?

    I’ve never tried them and have never felt the need. Ultimately, it’s a decision you have to make yourself based on your own experiences and mouth chemistry. Don’t let this forum sway you one way or another.

    Daughters and Ryan

    I’ve not noticed changes in the Three Sails that I’ve smoked spanning the years from when Mark owned the company until now. Could it change in the future? Sure. I can’t speak for other blends from D&R but Three Sails is still fantastic. The only other blend I’ve regularly smoked from D&R is Two...

    Daughters and Ryan

    I’m aware it’s no longer owned by Mark Ryan but aren’t they still around? I’m able to buy their tobaccos whenever I want. Am I just buying up the last of old stock or something?

    Daughters and Ryan

    D&R is definitely still alive and well. Three Sails is a blend of theirs (meant to be a clone of the old cigarettes Three Castles) and it’s my favorite tobacco to roll into a cigarette.

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2025?***

    Unfortunately, I’m done with the sample oz of G&H Kendal Mixed that I ordered with this smoke in an AGovem meer. The good news is that I like it so much that I ordered a 500g bag and an additional 4oz. Seriously, this stuff is fantastic.

    A few bowls of Kendal Mixed in the AGovem meer.

    My New Novel Has Pipe Smoking In It Again

    I finished my copy that I got from Amazon a couple of weeks ago. Great book man! I thoroughly enjoyed it and thought it was a real page turner. I’ll send my copy up to my grandma in Portland so she can check it out as well. Now, I’m off to write fan fiction where Sven makes his way over to...

    PipesMagazine Forum IPSD Zoom Chat!

    Zoom can only handle a certain amount of rugged manliness and the conversation today crashed the entire program for users around the world. If Funkenhouser decides to join a Zoom he might permanently destroy the entire internet.

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2025?***

    Right? Yeah it’s great stuff. I was always put off my the prospect of 50% perique so I just never tried it. For my palate it’s quite an easy going blend.

    Desert Island Blend List

    Pegasus. Pre-STG Sir Walter Raleigh would have worked too but now the stuff is drenched in a disgusting, bitey, vinegar topping.
