    Zippo Butane Pipe Lighter Insert

    Meerschaum pipes

    You could find cheap and beautiful common meers from Turkish seller on Etsy or Facebook. A custom-made meer cost more than a common meer, but you can get the meer of your dream. I bought my custom-made dragon claw from kocmeerschaum on Etsy. It's a great deal.

    Oldest Smoked Tobacco...

    Royal Jersey cavendish from 2005. I opened it in 2023. It sealed so tight that I had to break the lid. The tobacco remained moist and smelled of soy sauce. The flavor is very rich and deep. I enjoy it very much. The remaining half was given to my friend.
