pipe smoking

[Guest tripp]

anybody here smoke a pipe

[Ebow1]

I do, why?

[Guest tripp]

just wondering how many people do whats your favorite tobacco

[Ebow1]

I haven't had the opportunity to try very many different pipe tobaccos, but my favorite so far is probably the Blue Ridge blend out of Upton Smoke shop over in Green Hills.

I was on a cigar kick for a while but it can get expensive. Pipe smoking is cheaper and way more relaxing for me. Burns here in Chattanooga has a whiskey blend that I really like.

[Ebow1]

Reason I switched.

[Guest tripp]

I do every once in awhile. Get a special blend from a local shop.

I do. Been smoking and collectingfor years. Smoke different blends from tobacco shops, but favorite ready made is Palladins Black Cherry, for the taste as welll as the availability.

On a trip to PA a few years ago, I was lucky enough to meet J.M. Boswell and am now the proud owner of one of his masterpieces.

If you ever find yourself in Chambersburg, PA, you should stop in. His pipes are legendary.

I smoke a pipe once in a blue moon. I'm mainly a cigar guy though. Leaf and Ale in Knoxville has several nice custom house blends.

I think I have one of his pipes in my collection. I've been smoking and collecting pipes since the early nineties and have built up a collection that includes cheaper pipes like a Dr Grabo, wall the way to very expensive ones like Dunhill and Julio Vesz handcut pipes. Unlike some pipe smokers who seem to concentrate on one brand, I tend to only buy one pipe from each maker so I can have more variety in my collection.

I love them all, lol, but oddly enough, one of my better smoking pipes is a cheap little Lorenzo I picked out of a bargain bin at theTobacco Road Pipe shop when it was still at Harding Mall. Its an Italian made bent billiard style, that I paid something like 29 bucks for. its a nice looking pipe and like I said, it smokes wonderfully! Only problem is that since I smoke it so much, the tenon has become loose fitting into the shank. I put beeswax on it to tighten it up, but that only lasts a little while.
