It's that time of year again. When you start wearing sweaters and jackets again, maybe make some homemade soup and best of all dust off the pipes! Just light up a bowl of Proper English (tinder box blend) in the Nording freehand and settled in for a good book. Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

    Try it!! My wife lets me smoke pipe in the house so it's what I smoke a lot during the cold winter months. What pipes are you looking at?

    Beautiful pipe! I smoked some C&D Autumn Evening just yesterday followed by some McClelland Holiday Spirit 2010. I love holiday aromatics and found the C&D didn't age well. The McClelland is spot on. I guess aromatics don't age like others so I am trying to smoke up what I have opened before I get into my other stuff. Smoked some Holiday Spirit this afternoon watching football. If you guys like aromatics it is amazing. Rum, pecans, and cocoa flavors. You almost want to eat it.

    I say just try it. What have you got to loose? It's quite different from cigar smoking in terms of style, mood, your senses, and even non-smokers perception of it. I think it's worth while to find a good estate pipe and see if you like it. Getting started is pretty easy.

    No doubt..I can't even tell what a cigars size is just by looking at it. I don't know 3/4s of the makers..too much to learn. Throw pipes in there right now and my head might explode.

    I may get a cob, cuz they are super cheap, but what kind of tobbaco would be recommended? I know nothing about them.
  • jsnakejsnake Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 5,037
    Just depends what you like. I love aromatics and have never tried anything else though I have tins and mason jars full of other types. Smoking up my open aromatics since they do not tend to age well. I would start with aromatics though. Most tobacconist that deal in pipes will let you smoke a bowl if you take your pipe in. That way you don't have to commit to a tin if you don't like it. If you are still overseas maybe we can throw together some baggie samplers for you.

    I have 4 B&M's here that you can go in and sample pipe tobacco. Didn't realize how lucky I was. KC is home to XIKAR and McClelland.

    I just wanted to start with a cob because if it is something I do not like, I ma not out much. Versus buying a 50+ pipe.

    You will not only "like" it you will fall on your knees and announce to the world you LOVE it! LOL! Spring for a decent one, quality pipes smoke much better. They are easier to keep lit, stay cooler etc... You can also buy an estate pipe as an alternative to buying new.
