Hi everyone,
I’m from Beaverton, OR, just outside Portland. Getting back into pipes via my good friend, Adam.
Been a Cuban cigar smoker since the 70s and an off and on again pipe smoker since about 1997. Told Adam that I was thinking of getting back into pipes this winter, so of course he sent me about 40 tobaccos and a corn cob to flesh out my collection (lol, never had a cob before).
I’m partial to English but am loving a Balkan right now, along with the required Peterson’s Early Morning Pipe. Just picked up a Petersons 304 as well, which is really trick.
I’ll probably join the PDX pipe group at the Thorn and Rose next month as I will be hiding out at the coast during the August meet up.
Thanks for letting me into the club. I have lots to learn and this seems a good place to learn it.
