That POY is very nice also:-) How much is it going for??
I have a couple of straight pipes by Peterson, and I love to smoke Dunhill tobaccos. They're back in the UK which is brilliant news - just bought some new Early Morning Pipe and London Mixture. Also becoming a massive fan of Rattray's Red Raparee.
I'm certainly better with pipes than I am with a straight razor!
Here you can find Dunhill tobacco on ebay but it's going for $80 a tin!!!!
I got mine from a tobacconist in Bath for £10.50 a tin. I think they might even be doing Nightcap again. Anyway - the quality of the new stuff is just as good as they were doing before it went away - I hope for your sake that they distribute to the US soon.
So do I I love 965 and Elizabethan----
I'm not sure they are doing the Elizabethan again - although agreed it's a stunner. I think I saw Flake, 965, Nightcap, EMP, Deluxe navy rolls and London Mixture - London and Nightcap disappeared here long before the rest went away so I suppose there's hope for the Elizabethan Mixture too.
If you like some of the more oriental/latakia blends - I seriously suggest having a go with the Rattray's Red Raparee - it's the most rounded and smooth of this breed of tobacco and very high quality - as good if not better than the Dunhills I reckon.
So location of thread aside.I started back up with occasional pipe smoking.I have three bargain mini briars that are alright.But thanks to Nosewarmer,I'm becoming a convert to corn cobs.I got two cobs on order from Missouri Meerchaum,The Great Dane flat spool egg and a Pony Express.Much cooler smoke=PAD ! Thanks Nosewarmer.Tobacco fave:Nothing in particular yet.Got a mix of Blackwatch and Bowl O Cherries from Edwards tobacco in Denver.Gonna try some heftier english stuff soon and see how it goes?:):)
But don't worry Nosewarmer...A homemade pipe from a new friend will never play second fiddle.Just so ya know.:)It was after all,tradition amongst Native americans to do a pipe ceremony and the pipe was revered.
