Another welcome from Chicago! You are fortunate to live in one of the greatest countries in the world for pipe smokers. You have access to a great variety pipes and tobaccos with relatively low tobacco taxes, plus great shops like Peter Heinrichs, Esterval’s Pipe House, Pfeifen Huber, and more!

hello from Bavaria!

nice to meet you all! I lit my first pipe around 20 years ago in my 20s. we had always an on-off-relationship, and too often my choice fell on smoking cigars instead. well, now again, the pipe it is. and I enjoy it, very much, it is a like close friend you have not talked to for a long time, but still feel familiar when you finally see again each other.

I have a couple of pipes, not too expensive, but also not cheap ones. my tobaccos are well aged, as I still have some of the very beginning. sometimes opened - i need to check if they are still smokable - but there should also be some closed ones.

and again, for so many times, I'm an absolute beginner dealing with the basics. your support here already helped me a lot - what an epiphany the breath method was!

Best regards / servus

if there wouldn't smoking be prohibited at so many places (especially in Bavaria) to be honest, I appreciate that indoor smoking in restaurants etc is forbidden as I also like to enjoy my meals without cigarette smoke. but that also means that there are also many opportunities lost like (open) cigar/pipe meetings. you need to find lounges etc. where you can have a nice smoke together. in summer it is easier, you can smoke at any Biergarten, but I like to choose a place apart others to not disturb them with my clouds.
but I agree that I appreciate the tobacco choice we have here. If I may help you with sending tobacco to your places feel free to contact me. I just don't know yet how to ship, as DHL doesn't allow tobacco shipping (e.g. to US). but there might be other solutions.

Oh DHL does ship tobacco, the problem getting it to the States lies with Customs and U.S. Postal. I have put down my experiences here:

Terrible Experience with Shipping and Customs from Europe to the US :: General Discussion

As some of you may have read, I recently sold a couple of vintage tobaccos here in the Tobacco Sell/Swap/Search section. I imagined that COVID-related delays would be a problem, but there was worse. USPS and US customs. It seems to be unpredictable what happens there. I managed to sell tins to...
