Minor case of PAD & TAD: Comoy Pipe & Pease Tobaccos

[admin]

It's funny that during my interview with Olie Sylvester, I told him that I have 3 Comoy Pipes. Make that six as of yesterday.
I had a minor case of PAD & TAD. I ordered from SmokingPipes.com: Comoy's Spectrum Smooth Billiard (186), G.L. Pease Tobaccos ... Union Square, Westminster, Ashbury, Cairo, Samarra, Maltese Falcon, Quiet Nights and Key Largo.

If you look real close - on the left is part of a pink box - Victoria's Secret gift for my girlfriend (if I get stuff, she has to get stuff), and my jeans that I have to iron laying over the chair... kind of YouTube-Video-ish.

OK,

Now I can put you in the same category as I am. A tobacco slut!!!! :rofl:

Nice Comoy, and I notice they are commanding more $$ these days. Someone is catching on.

 

[dervis]

Been eyeing that Key Largo myself. Great buy

Kevin when you iron the jeans do you press the pockets? The old cajun

Way before Victoria's Secret I used to order gifts from Fredrick's of Hollywood. Seams everything

she got though had holes in it....

I can't speak for Comoy pipes, though that certainly looks like a beaut. I can, however, understand your Pease TAD as I suffer from the same problem. Though a different genre -- I can't get enough of his VaPers and VaPer hybrids: Haddo's, Cairo, Fillmore, Barbary Coast being among my favorites.
We are truly living in the Golden Age of pipe tobacco.

Congrats Kevin. Can't go wrong with a classic Comoy.

Nice haul. You just need a c clamp and a blow torch now.

Yes. I do.

Damn! I forgot to order that stuff.
Off to Home Depot I go.

Hi,

I never heard of GL Pease Tobacco (new smoker here). Will definitely have to try them, all of them! Anyone know where I can get them in Canada?
Excuse me being nosy, but that is a fine looking home, I really like that open view/window.
Happy smoking :puffpipe:

Greg, what is up with making Kevin buy retail? I would have thought you would hook your brother up with some wholesale deals. I guess you just don't rate high enough Kevin. LOL

 

[admin]

Greg hooks me up in a lot of ways, and it's fun to order stuff online.

Kevin, I just popped a tin of Samarra that has two years age on it, and it is one of the most sublime smokes I have ever had. Silky, smoky, a little spicy, good latakia hit with no rough edges thanks to the aging. Give it some time in the closet and save it for a special occasion, I guarantee you wont regret it.

Congratulations on your new pipe and tobacco variety. I hope you enjoy the pipe for many years. If you have an opportunity I am sure lots of members would appreciate your opinions of the different tobaccos

Nice looking Comoy, Kevin.

Happy smoking!

Welcome aboard Sands. Check the sponsors on the left. Specifically Smoking Pipes, 4Noggins, Pipes and Cigars, Cup O Joes.
I've only tried two GL Pease tobacco's myself, Haddo's Delight and Chelsea Morning, but they both we're excellent. I don't even care for English's all that much but Chelsea Morning is very nice and peaceful with a cup of coffee.
Haddo's is just an excellent multifaceted tobacco. Sweat yeasty bread, damp soft wood, stewed plums and peppers. Tasty stuff.

That is a great looking haul Kevin. I hope you get many miles out of that Comoy.
As I see snow coming down here in NJ at a whopping 31 degrees, I am not sure what I am more jealous of....your haul or that view out of the window
Happy Smoking ::

Welcome to the forum!
I'm a huge Pease fan -- especially of his English and Balkan blends. If you find that you like latakia, I can't recommend Westminster (English) and Caravan (Balkan) highly enough. I also enjoy Abingdon, Ashbury, Charing Cross, Kensington, and Odyssey.

Nice pick up Kevin. That looks like a great pipe. Nice haul on the baccy as well. I've yet to try any G.L. Pease, but I've heard many great reviews on their blends. Enjoy!
