Bruc means briar. This brand has been doing very interesting and improved pipes lately , specially on the Rioja line. However , i do not know if they are available in USA. To see some nice examples you can check Cartagopipes on the internet.Glad you‘re enjoying it! But if it’s Bruken, you should get it fixed.
not a baseball cap guy. Even when I should wear one. But that bear is awesome!!
It's actually a SasquatchBesides of the bears cap the cherry blossoms are quite impressive.
It's been averaging 50F here during the day. I actually took up pipes this winter because it was too cold for cigars, discomfort aside I struggled to keep one lit and ended up losing all flavor to the point I couldn't tell a Padron from an Ashton. Now it's warm enough for cigars again but I'm really digging pipes. My Tupperdor has about 15 cigars I bought over the course of the winter and I have no idea when I'll get to smoking them because I'm still focusing on pipes, I only smoke a couple times a week due to time constraints and wanting to minimize health risks. So much tobacco, so little timeLooks like nice weather! In Wisconsin, we went from winter, right to summer. Too cold, to too hot. Terrible.
