Welcome from NC. So is it true Chinese people are increasingly enjoying pipe smoking? Is there a lot of European tobacco going into China now days? How do you like Chinese made pipes?

Welcome from Taiwan! I drink Pu'er tea while smoking pipes as well. They are great match together.
I also recommend drinking chocolate milk if you're not allergic to it.

I drink green tea, sometimes coffee

Pu-er.
Tried it a few times.
Looks, smells and tastes like stagnant ditch water.
Can't see the appeal personally.

Like durian, those who like it, will like it. Those who don't like, will not like no matter what

I basically need to smoke one pipe a day. Along with Pu'er tea, I have many Pu'er tea from the 1990s. It is similar to pipe tobacco, the older , the more fragrant it is.

Welcome from the Pacific NW. Are you smoking the Pu'er tea or drinking it?
There was a guy in my pipe club who went to China and bought what he thought was tobacco, but turned out to be tea. He smoked it before he found out, said it wasn't bad!

Welcome from the USA! Your pipes are beautiful!

Is there a local tradition of pipe smoking in China, with local pipe designs and local pipe tobacco?

Hello everyone,I've been smoking a pipe for five years。
There is no physical shop for pipes in China, so most of my pipes and pipe tobacco are purchased from the United States and Europe. I basically need to smoke one pipe a day. Along with Pu'er tea, I have many Pu'er tea from the 1990s. It is similar to pipe tobacco, the older , the more fragrant it is.
I have more than 30 pipes, and I like larsen pipes. I attach a Larsen pipe I bought in a German pipe shop and a larsen SG10 I bought from an American SP, both of which are my favorite pipes. In addition, I also like American pipe maker JT Cooke, who's pipes is very good.

Pu-Erh can be so good. I've had some bad Pu-Erh and some amazing. But it's certainly the closest thing I have to the one type of tea I drink. You certainly have very different taste in pipes then I do. But that's part of what makes it so fun to be a pipe smoker.

Welcome, and lovely pipes you have!
You will likely see many questions about pipe smoking in your country!

Well, it's already happened! Good luck!

Wow, nice to see someone from China.
Wanted to ask: I see a lot of pipes being sold on AliExpress. Do you also have access to buying there? And most importantly, would you buy a pipe there?

I haven't bought pipes on this website. I don't know how to search for pipes I want. I often choose pipes on EBAY

欢迎欢迎! Which city are you joining us from?

I spent some time in Beijing/Shanghai many, many moons ago. I did a little traveling around and have very fond memories of both the country and its people.

I'm in Xiamen, Fujian. Fujian is a coastal city，Welcome to visit
