    Different Blends?

    Hey all, Could someone give a brief overview of the different types of tobacco blends? I understand the lines aren’t exactly set in stone but I’d like to know more. Latakia, Virginia, English, aromatic?

    New Meer Coming: Any Big Differences?

    Hey all! I've got a meerschaum pipe coming in from Star Meerschaum Pipes, a pocket pipe with whale or perhaps nautilus detailing. I've never smoked meerschaum before--I hear that it: -doesn't need to be broken in but should be cleaned often (reaming?) -can color many different ways and can be...

    Petersons!

    Hey all! How about a thread about Petersons in general--everything we like, dislike, favorite pipes, favorite finishes, shapes, how they've changed over the years.

    Hello from Kansas City!

    Hello all! I've been smoking pipes off and on for the past few years but have quit cigarettes and vapes in order to smoke my pipes "full-time" so to speak. How is everyone?

    NEW to tasting; SICK of inhaling!

    Hello all! I’ve smoked cigarettes and vaped for a while, but inhaling smoke all the way into my lungs is just too much now! I like the taste and smell of tobacco still and so got a Peterson system pipe recently, really like it and this community seems nice as well!
