Thread: Pipe of the Day

Good morning, Gentleman.
First pipe today:

Les Wood with Capstan.

Love that photo Tom!

Thanks and stay tuned,
today I got some new tobaccos.

The Malthouse I know already.
All this tobaccos I got from:
DanPipe
I looked for a present to a forum-member I'll meet in May in Israel.
He'll get only one of this packages!

Well.
In the meanwhile I'm still smoking/testing the Independence:

"Diese gold- bis mittelbraune „Ready Rubbed"-Mischung von ausgesucht zuckerreichen und aromatischen Virginia Grades mit einer hauchfein spürbaren Prise Latakia erhielt als krönenden Abschluß ein eher dezentes und doch markantes Flavour mit einer fruchtgetönten Komponente, die auch den angenehmen Raumduft bestimmt.
Ein charaktervoller Tabak von vollendeter Harmonie, kühl im Rauch und sanft-würzig im Geschmack."

Gold-to middlebrown "ready rubbed" mixture by sugar-rich and aromatic Virginia grades with a little bit Latakia.

Very good tobacco, I think I'll order a 250g package.

BTW: I ordered the brand-stickers too and they don't have the fu... warnings at the print.

Thomas,

Have you already tried Malthouse and Presbyterian mixture?
There's some good stuff available in Dan Pipe. Recently i ordered some English blends and wanted to try some of their aromatics too. I was positively surprised by the Blue Note, which seems to be a jewel amongst the aromatics, at least for me. Probably not my everyday smoke but something to try every now and then.
To get my hands on some of the tobacco blend they sell in USA i need to find some EU site that sells US tobaccos. Any hints?

Besides: Goodbye cold winter outdoor Latakia smokes. I just got one of our empty rooms finished after putting new hardwood floor and wallpaper. Still have to find some decent air cleaner and then my winter time pipe lounge will be ready to use.

Malthouse I already tried years ago. It is also a very good tobacco.
Presbyterian I'll try the next days.
Be patient, the American series has different percentages of Latakia, as you can read at DanPipes websites. Some of the tobaccos could be "hard stuff".
I'll report about all the tobaccos I got today.
BTW: DanPipe created the American series for the US-market.

I could guess by the names they have.
Thanks in advance. Presbyterian mix is another i've been watching for. Next time i'll order some tobacco from Dan Pipes i have to consider that.
Another EU sites that sells pipe tobaccos (and cigars etc for those who are interested) are cigarworld.de and e-tobaccos.com. I've been ordering some from those sites for few times, but usually i try to support our local shop, and specially now as they got some SG's and Erinmores on stock

Tomi it is a pleasure to me.

Very nice Tom. I have never had a bad tobacco from Dan, the Treasures of Ireland Limerick is one that I enjoy a lot. Da Vinci is a great aromatic, although I do not smoke them that often this one is the best "traditional" aromatic I've had. I don't smoke latakia often so I will skip most of the "American Revolution" series, but I am interested in the Patriot Flake.
