Good early morning to everyone still awake. I am just closing up my night with a quick note in my journal and a quick note you all. I am not new to fine tobacco. I am an avid cigar smoker. However, I am finding the pipe much more intriguing as of late. I am a practicing Catholic and in the Church there is some elegance behind the pipe. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone here and hear what everyone has to say and learn so much from you.
Tonight, I lit my first pipe while reading my book. I have a Missouri Meerschaum corn cob pipe and the first tobacco I have tried so far was Peterson's Nightcap. That is a very tasty smoke, I must say. However, it wasn't quite what I was thinking. When I think of cigars, I think of the kind of sweet smell that just lingers in the air. Nightcap, though delicious does not have the sweet notes in the air. If anyone knows what I am talking about, I believe it to be the smell everyone talks about when they think of a pipe smoker-- the smell is an instantaneous memory line to the good days of being a child on the porch and that one uncle is over puffing on his pipe. You don't remember much about anything of that day-- except that smell of the pipe. That's the smell I remember, and I don't know how much differently I can describe it.
If anyone knows what I am talking about, please point me in the direction of the right tobacco. I would love to fill the air with that smell as I read my book and recollect of easier days.
Thanks,
AG.
