    What Was Your First "I Gotta Buy 5 Pounds of This Stuff!" Tobacco?

    White Knight was the first blend that I stocked up on after trying my first bowl. Ten to Midnight was the first blend that I bought by the pound. I'm a big fan of Russ's work.

    What's The Cure for Briar -and does it Make A Difference?

    If the big secret is concocting herb, liquor, and wine and then swabbing the wood 2 or 3 times a week, I'm a pipe-making legend.

    Inform Me On Watch City Cigar, Ravenwood, And KBV.

    Watch City is legit. I have a jar of None of Your Business that I'm thinking of offloading. It's well-made, but the fruit topping is not my thing. Glass Slipper and Rougaroux have me excited to check out more of the catalog. I've got a stash of KBV to try. I've only popped Noble Aztec so far...

    Just circling back to this thread to note that I've been on SP's website only twice since the redesign. It used to be compulsive for me. Now, it's just not as fun. SP, if you're reading, take note.

    In closing my Saint Greenbeer's Day Peterson dump on my fine Pipesmoking Peterson Petronas, I offer the last addition to my Peterson family. This one has no story other than I've wanted a Deluxe, and damn if Chuck Pete himself didn't christen a new stash of Barleys just a few moments ago. It was...

    When Peterson came out with their 2024 Christmas pipes, I bought 3. This is the one I kept--2024 Christmas Copper Spigot 05. I gave the other two as gifts. My brother's is unchristened, which is a problem he has guaranteed he will remedy soon. He has a newborn and is on a newborn's schedule, so...

    This is one of my favorites. It's unsmoked and will probably stay that way. This is a Peterson Natural Amber Silver Spigot D6. As the story goes, Peterson had a very small run of new old-stock amber stems that somebody discovered in a box in the Dublin factory. The stem is made of (very soft)...

    I learned from my Mycroft that buying a consolation pipe doesn't scratch the itch. SP had a gorgeous Sherlock Holmes with a gold band, and they were really proud of it. $600 for a pipe?! Not a chance. The gold-band one sold and left the store, but not my mind. When this one popped up, it found...

    My second pipe was also a Peterson. At the time, I thought the idea of having a second pipe was excessive. However, I decided to branch out from my comfort zone of BCA and 1-Q. I trusted the collective palate of my fellow pipe-tobacco-buying brethren, and I picked up a tin of Satan's Hangover...

    Happy St. Patty's Day! I feel silly that I've never posted in this thread, but that's a problem I can solve. <-- I'll start with my namesake. My Peterson 314 was the first pipe I bought, but not the first that I smoked. My college roommate introduced me to the pipe. He had two--a Peterson...

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

    First light of Fusilier's Ration which I just opened. I crumbled a bit, put it in my Savinelli 673 Luisa Fiammata, and set it on fire.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    First time with Fusilier's Ration. It is fantastic, as expected.

    I feel attacked.

    Oof! Not fun. Take care, my forum friend!
