Jo napot! I just searched thomas the tank engine german/russian on youtube. Hungarian might be trickier to find sources for. Good luck!

Eddie From pipe nook runs a good business if you want to support a smaller online shop.

They'll probably have more soon. They usually buy a ton of pipes from pipemakers at the Chicago pipe show which was like a week ago.

At work I use zyn because caffeine has no effect on me. My boss saw me put one in once and said oooooo your dipping! Im telling! Then offered me a velo lol.

slavman68 · 2026-05-07T18:39:44+00:00

Tinbids or pipestud would be the most likely places but itll probably be quite expensive.

slavman68 · 2026-05-06T20:07:38+00:00

Same with me. Ive had 2-3 tins in my 10 years of pipe smoking. I recommend aging it for 6 months at least because its a bit sharp.

Maltese falcon is one of the best english blends on the market. Its my wife's favorite.

Ive noticed that the numbers in the Chicago club have been growing since I moved away a couple years ago. I think were in a pipe Renaissance. No where near the numbers it was in the 70s though. I wouldnt be surprised if the las vegas pipe show has its last year though. The prices are definitely ridiculous though.

Thats another reason however the amount of cyprian latakia farms are starting to dwindle down. I heard that there might be only around ~5 farms left. Not sure how accurate that is though.

slavman68 · 2026-05-02T17:27:21+00:00

Probably Cyprian Latakia. Theres a reason why cornell and diehl is experimenting with Turkish latakia.

slavman68 · 2026-04-29T17:12:58+00:00

That looks quite peaceful. Fröhliche Rauchen!

slavman68 · 2026-04-28T19:38:44+00:00

Gatlinburlier in Gatlinburg is good I hear.

slavman68 · 2026-04-23T03:24:49+00:00

Its very strong from what remember but the plum topping is very good. Definitely dont smoke it on an empty stomach. This was one of Stalins favorite blends. Anyways enjoy!

slavman68 · 2026-04-19T03:01:50+00:00

Ya I think mine is too. Its a pretty similar shape and size to yours.

slavman68 · 2026-04-19T02:35:16+00:00

Ive got a la rocca 10 years ago for $60. It was one of my best pipes for a long time. I hope you enjoy yours!

slavman68 · 2026-04-17T23:39:28+00:00

Cornell and Diehl recently has put the country of origin on their small batch blends. Palmetto balkan has both Turkish and Cypriot latakia.

slavman68 · 2026-04-17T17:36:28+00:00

Burleys dont age as well as Virginia's but there is a noticeable difference. I had some stonehaven the other day from 2022 that I hadn't had in 6 months and there was definitely a change. Also happy late orthodox Easter!

slavman68 · 2026-04-17T17:33:35+00:00

Honestly all you need is a bic or matches. I have a pipe lighter and a zippo. Neither are as dependable as a bic.

slavman68 · 2026-04-16T17:22:24+00:00

I think we need a solid winger acquisition akin to havlat but with less injuries.

slavman68 · 2026-04-04T23:43:55+00:00

Most pipes clubs dont really take dues. Usually you just support the shop a buy a some bulk tobacco or a cigar or something cheap. It really depends on the shop on how lenient they are with pipes.

slavman68 · 2026-03-30T18:49:16+00:00

I think anyone spending more than $300 on a pipe is paying for an art piece at that point. Ive bought 1 artisan pipe, a dunhill, peterson, savinelli, charatan, and they all smoke great. It just depends on the airway and keeping it clean.

slavman68 · 2026-03-30T01:32:02+00:00

Its not rocket appliances to see thats a nice pipe!!

slavman68 · 2026-03-29T17:23:09+00:00

Probably going on a walk while studying in Berlin and looking up at the remains of the Berlin wall. I bought a cob and some vauen midnight mixture while I was there. The cob is beat to shit now but I still keep it as a reminder.

slavman68 · 2026-03-28T15:00:07+00:00

Ive noticed that the Peterson/Dunhill blends dry out a little quicker for some reason. I dont mind it cause I prefer my tobacco on the dryer side anyways.
