    I’m Latakia’d out!

    I'm yet another one whose Latakia journey ended fatally as well... I remember the first time i got the taste of it, I was so hooked up on it, that I ended smoking bowl after bowl of it. After a while, I got to a point where even the slightest taste of it is an instant turn off... And I've never...

    Half a Bowl Left when Out and About...

    Hey Halfdan! Yeah, Allan Lee did a terrific job with the LOTR Illustrations, and this one is the one I'm really fond of! After all, Tolkien's literature is the reason for me picking the pipe up in the first place! I'm aware of the tobacco, and I did watch a couple of reviews, and videos about...

    Half a Bowl Left when Out and About...

    Wait a few minutes for it to stop burning, take a pipe tool, scrape and dump the ash, do a little tamping on the tobacco so that it doesn't get loose too much, put the pipe in my pipe pouch, and proceed with the day. I take the pipe later, relight it and continue on smoking. Never had any problem.

    Pipes You Don't Smoke?

    To be honest, from all the pipes i have bought over the years, I've never encountered a 'bad smoker' pipe. I'm just not familiar with that term, at least for now. 😄 I do have a couple that I find more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing than the others, but I still take a different pipe for...

    How/What Beverages do You Pair with Your Pipe?

    Only Coffee. I think they compliment each other for the best. Both require sipping and slowing down to be enjoyed fully.

    Where Do You Usually Smoke?

    When the weather is nice, most of the times I'll be smoking on my porch. Recently I moved to apartment, so the porch got replaced by the terrace. During the winter, since my spouse doesn't like smoking indoors I tend to go to the nearby woods with the dog and there I have a perfect spot.

    Howdy fellow Pipers! (All the way from Serbia)

    I still haven't found a tobacco that i don't enjoy, truly. Its not much, but I like the selection. Want to mention also that since 'Clan' is a part of it. Been watching a bunch of reviews on it here and there. Its heavy on the negative side... But I like it, been smoking it for a while now...

    Nice to hear that Karam! Hope you were enjoying your time in these parts! I was in Switzerland once, stayed there for a month or so, a truly beautiful country! I think the place was called Volketswil, close to Zurich.

    Howdy fellow Pipers! (All the way from Serbia)

    Yeah, of course. Primarily cigarettes. In fact, now when i think of it, i don't really know to many people that are non-smokers. 😄 But only once have i saw a Pipe smoker out in the open.

    Thank you Prozart! Yeah, i do bring back with me as much as i can! 😄 Its a shame that it never lasts as long as i expect it to last haha. There is a fine line between me and a chimney 😄

    Howdy fellow Pipers! (All the way from Serbia)

    Greetings all, I finally decided to join the fun after a long phase of lurking here and there, learning as much as I can about the hobby and the beauty of pipe smoking. I've been a smoking for 8 years now. Primarily Aromatics, since only a few of them are all that is available in the country...
