    Stare At My Woog

    I don't often post pictures of my Woog on the Internet, but I have made a rare exception for you fine pipesmoking forumnistas. I have hunted this pipe for years, and now it's MINE!

    Help With P&C

    Hey guys. I haven't panic-bought any tobacco in two or three weeks, and I was feeling anxious about the depth of my WhiteKnight stash. I ordered eight tins from P&C using their free shipping, and a box arrived reasonably quickly after I placed my order. The tins were well-protected in bubble...

    I Made It To L.J. Peretti

    I was in Boston for a conference, and I stole a minute to run down to the Boston Commons to visit the legend! I got there just minutes before they closed. That is not a big store. There were three or four people in there grabbing essentials, and it was full. But the store was cool! I've never...

    Jacono Pipe Contact Request

    Do any of y'all have contact information for pipe maker Tonino Jacono? The last I had was toninojacono@fastwebnet.it, but my recent email bounced back.

    Puff n' Stuff Broke My Heart

    Atlanta, like everywhere else, is a pipe tobacco desert. We have two cigar shops on every corner, but the only pipe tobaccoasis in this city was Puff n' Stuff in Tucker. For years, I drove by it every time I went to see my dad, and I fed the TAD monster whether I needed anything or not. It was...

    Your Opinions on Morta

    I have been curious about morta since I first heard about it. I still kinda want one. But my conclusion, from this forum and other articles, is that morta is an itch to scratch but it's not replacing any favorite briars. I haven't seen anyone whose favorite pipe was made from old bogwood. So...

    Bob's Chocolate

    Maaaaan. I just re-upped my Bob's Chocolate which I haven't had in about a year. I really missed the chocolate. I couldn't find it. I smoked slow, I sped it up, I got in the usual pocket. Nothing. I spent about an hour hunting around the burley and virginias (and they say latakia is in the...

    Essential or Not: What's Missing In Your Pipe Gear?

    What's a common item that just never made it to your pipe shelf? I've had a pipe for 20 years, but I have never owned an ashtray, pipe knocker, pipe rack, or pipe stand. Just curious who else has gone years or decades without a part of some "standard" kit.

    I Dropped My Lunting Pipe

    It was bound to happen. I hope it never happens to you. I was out walking the hound and finished my bowl well before the walk ended. And then I did what comes naturally--I just popped my pipe in my back pocket. I thought I might have a little ash or dottle or something left in the pipe, so I...

    My New (To Me) Ser Jacopo Hawkbill

    After looking at this pipe for about a week, I took advantage of smokingpipes estate pipe sale and snatched up this Ser Jacopo! It's a smooth Hawkbill (L2). Despite the shiny pictures online, it came a bit flat and a bit dirty. That's not unexpected, but I spent some time working on it last...

    Show Off Your Fiammata!

    Did you grab one of the Savinelli Luisa Fiammata pipes? Do you have a Castello Fiammata? Ser Jacopo Fiammata? Did you name your cat Fiammata? If so, let's see it!

    Stokkebye's Nougat

    I've been smoking Stokkebye's Nougat for a few weeks now, and uuuuugh it's frustrating. When I get a perfect puff, it's delicious. It's like a good quality tobacco cased in a 3 Musketeers bar. There's a creamy, velvety, nougat taste that just makes the entire session memorable. However, it's...

    My New Savinelli Roma

    I've been looking for a Prince or a Billiard to catch my eye, and I just pulled the trigger on this Savinelli Roma 315! This is my first Prince and my second Savinelli. It fits perfectly in my hand. I love the look of the polished rim on the rusticated surface. I haven't decided on its maiden...

    I'm Getting Addicted To Forever Stems

    I just completed my second Forever Stem. That's a new Country Gentleman sporting a new Dark Orange Ripple long-ass stem, set off by a real silver band 'cause we fancy now. This is fresh off the heels of me doing a side-by-side comparison of 1-Q and CBR. I know this has been debated to death...

    My First Forever Stem!

    I've got the Forever Stem bug. I just popped a nickel band on a new cob and dropped in a new blue swirl stem, and now I'm looking to outfit a new Country Gentleman. As a bonus, I actually like the cheap plastic stem on my featherweight lunting cob, so now I have a spare in case I chew it up.

    The Labeled Cellar

    I pulled out all of my jars from the cellar and it made me happy.

    The Country Squire Fans - Let's Talk

    I've been super excited to try TCS for a little more than a year now. I recently purchased 10 blends from them, and so far, I've been able to try 3. Old Toby, Bag End, and Black Arrow. I still have plenty to go, but I gotta say that I didn't find any of these blends to have anywhere near the...

    The Country Squire Cellar Labels

    I just received my first order from The Country Squire and ordered 2 ounces of their Middle Earth series. I designed cellar labels with a nod to their ink stamp labels, and I am really happy with how they turned out. I thought y'all would enjoy it.

    Smokey Joe's in Fife

    Hello Washingtonians, I'm heading to Seattle later this month. I'll be in the Seattle/Bellevue area. I plan a stop in F.K. Kirsten since I'll be local, but I wanted to know from the locals if Smokey Joe's is worth the pilgrimage. If I was there on the Second Wednesday, it would be a no-brainer...
