What's new

Tobacquisitions August 2016

Just purchased my first pipe, tobacco, and some supplies a few days ago. I've smoked four bowls of Frog Morton's Cellar, and each has been amazing. I love the smoky spiciness of the latakia, with the bright finish of the virginias. Looks like I've found another hobby! I also just started college, so I will have to limit what I purchase.


Very nice, welcome to the Brown Leaf mate.
 
Who doesn't love a nice short story!

Amen, brother. I saw them and I couldn't say no.

I must see if the local has them. I love AF cigars, but haven't tried those, yet.

Do tell when you check it out!
All this short story talk is making me want to make an order!

I never seem to have much luck finding the maduros. Cameroons seem to always be sitting on the shelves. The maduros...not so much. :bored:
 
Just received this one-off solid copper Radiator base for the commissioned Brandon Brooks bowl. Can't wait for the copper to oxidize a bit!

I tried a few blends at my local tobacconist today, and ended up leaving with two of the three that I tried. I like Frog Morton's Cellar, so I decided to try Dunhill Standard Mixture. I believe this is an English blend, and I really enjoy it. The other blend that I tried and bought is blended locally under the name "Golden Barley". It is a straight burley non-aromatic tobacco that was very pleasant to smoke. The third blend, which I did not enjoy was a cherry aromatic. I actually ended up getting a some bite from it as I smoked through the bowl.

I will post pictures of my acquisitions tomorrow!
 
Picked up a nice Straight Kirsten to match my bent. The pics make it a little hard to tell, but they're both a nice goldtone w copper lucite stems.

I just ordered one of these today after seeing them in the P&C email. A Kirsten Jewel with the bulldog bowl. I never heard of them before. Cool looking pipes. Are there any other places that sell them? P&C doesn't stock all their shapes.

Used to have fun with Commander Yellow Pantyhose

Sweet! They smoke great. Best place is direct from Kirsten. Otherwise, it's the estate market (and as of this week, P&C).
