    Question for UK pipe smokers

    Hello friends across the pond, I'm headed to Liverpool next week for a family vacation, and I am hoping to explore some local tobacconists while there. Question for UK smokers: what does a tin of pipe tobacco cost there these days? If the price is right, hoping to pick up some tobacco as...

    Converting a non-filter pipe to filter?

    Hello all, I recently acquired some beautiful Peterson pipes and both do not accommodate filters. I was wondering if anyone here knew if it was possible to convert these to accept filters, or if there are any filters out there that are small enough to fit into the teeny tiny draft hole of the...

    ISO: Scotty's Butternut Burley

    Hello All, I recently tried Scotty's Butternut Burley I acquired in a trade, and what can I say? I was blown away. It's got to be one of the best aromatics out there. Alas, I live in Canada and cannot get it here. I was wondering if anyone here has some that they would be willing to sell and...

    Cigars in Cancun

    Hello all, I'm headed to Cancun in a few weeks and am wondering if anyone here has had any good experiences with local cigar retailers. I know that cigar counterfeiting can be quite widespread in Mexico, so if anyone has any tips on legitimate retailers, I would be grateful. Thank you!

    St. Patrick's Day Sales

    Anyone know of any St. Patrick's Day sales taking place at online tobacco and pipe vendors? In previous years this seemed to be a thing but I can't find any at either SmokingPipes.com or 4noggins. Any heads ups would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello all, I'm interested in purchasing a Peterson System Standard but as a relatively new pipe smoker, I'm overwhelmed by the choice available for these pipes. I'm trying to figure out which model is the largest...I can see that the 307 is listed as a large one, but not sure if it's the...

    Ready for Christmas!

    Got my Christmas tobacco out and ready to smoke this holiday season. What are you all smoking as the weather turns cooler (in Canada and the northern US at least!)?

    WTB Mild Cigars for a Beginner

    Hello all, Looking to purchase mild cigars as I begin on my cigar-smoking journey. Not looking for any brand in particular - just good, solid cigars with mild to medium flavour profiles. Seller needs to be willing to ship to Canada, where I live. If you're looking to get rid of some, let me...

    Good US Cigar Retailer for Canadians?

    Hi folks, In addition to my newly acquired pipe-smoking habit, I'm also interested in getting into cigar smoking. I'm in Canada and tobacco products are ridiculously priced here, so I'm wondering if anyone knows a reliable cigar retailer in the US who can ship discreetly to Canada, if you know...

    Lighter Full-sized Pipes

    As a new pipe smoker (6 months now), I'm still trying a bunch of different blends and pipe brands. I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice as to good full-sized pipes that don't weigh very much. I find that I enjoy clenching but if I've got a heavier, full-sized pipe in my mouth, it...

    Virginia and cigarette taste?

    As a new pipe smoker (five months), I've been trying a bunch of different types of tobacco to get a sense of the different flavours of different tobacco types. Is it me, or does Virginia tobacco remind anyone else strongly of cigarettes? Is it my imagination? Both the taste and aroma remind me...

    Regular Tobacco Sales?

    As a new pipe smoker, I see that some online tobacco retailers, such as SmokingPipes and Cup 'o Joes seem to have very regular sales. I'm wondering if there are recurring annual sales that people here wait for to stock up. 4noggins, which is my preferred retailer, doesn't seem to have sales very...

    Why are Dunhills so Expensive?

    As a relatively new pipe smoker, I've been on the hunt for new pipes to fill out my collection. One of the things I just can't seem to get my head around is the prices of some pipes, particularly Dunhills. They don't seem to be much different from other, cheaper brands, such as Savinelli...

    Virginia taste

    As a very new pipe smoker (about two months now), I'm still developing my palate and sampling a bunch of tobaccos to figure out what I like. So far, I've only smoked aromatics and have found a few nice ones that agree with me. What I haven't been able to figure out is what Virginia tobacco...

    That Old School Aroma

    When I was a kid, a few relatives smoked pipes and I always knew when they were visiting by the smell of the house whenever I came home. I can't really describe the aroma in terms of what was in the tobacco, but it was that typical old school aroma that a lot of people I know associate with pipe...

    English blends for beginners

    Hi all, As a beginner pipe smoker, I have been focusing on aromatics and have not yet made the foray into English blends. I'm a bit nervous to be honest because I'm afraid of starting with something that's going to blow my head off. I know there are some threads about blends for beginners here...
