:tu Some good stuff in there.

How do you like the Three Nuns? :sh I have yet to try that one.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Nice pickups Brandon! DMK sent me a sample of that Frog Morton Cellar, smells amazing. You get all that from P&C?

Stopped by Pipes by George again and picked up a few tins: Solani Virginia Flake with Perique, McClelland Aurora, McClelland Stave Aged 35, McClelland Tudor Castle

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

PH Dark Strong Flake tin
GLP Gaslight tins x2
GLP Quiet Nights tin

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

How is that Stave aged? Is it similar to frog Morton cellar?

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

...just purchased a Peterson Dracula 999. Now I need to get it "fixed"....they didn't make this model blasted...and I only like the blasted look for the Dracula pipes.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Did a little bit of early birthday shopping at Pipes by George today:

I originally had no plan of buying a pipe today, just was gonna stop in and look at some and pick up a new tin or two. As I'm looking George pulls this Nording down from the wall and hands it to me, and while I'm not normally a fan of a partially plateaux'd rim, I fell in love as the little bit of plateaux works perfectly as an index finger rest for my right hand. You know you have a (very good) problem when your local pipe shop owner can find the perfect pipe for you in just a couple tries. :r

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Its good but very mild, little to no bite which is nice. Smells amazing in the tin thanks to the nice cubic inch of bourbon barrel they throw in there. I've only had a couple bowls of it so far, guess I'll have to light up another soon. And I haven't yet had the Frog Morton Cellar, I tend to stay away from anything with an added flavor, but I'm a sucker for bourbon and caved on the Stave Aged.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

I got the Frog from 4noggins.
They treat their Canadian customers well ;)

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Not a purchase, but my birthday present from my dad, a Mark Tinsky Dress Rusticated Billiard:

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Nice pipe. Tinskys smoke very well.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

No complaints thus far in the smoking department. I normally have a strong dislike of rusticated pipes, but this one was one of the few exceptions. I fell in love on first sight. The little bit of white acrylic or whatever it was he used takes the pipe from a good looking pipe to one of my favorites. Its funny how just the tiniest little things completely alter how we view things. Plus the bowl is nice and big which is perfect when you've got massive hands like me.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Funny how tastes are different too. I am not a big fan of accents on pipes - acrylic, bone, horn, silver, gold, anything. And while I like smooth pipes, I like rusticated better, and a crisp blast is my favorite.

The only one who needs to like your pipe, is you.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

My "Dracula" arrived. Finally found one with a stem swirl I liked in the shape I wanted. NOW, I just need to fix the pipe. Gotta make a slight modification to it. ;)

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

OK, what is the modification you are going to make to it?

I must say, it is a unique pipe and catches the eye.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

I am going to have it blasted. Peterson never offered the 999 blasted, and I like the looks of the blasted Dracula pipes better than the smooth. :D

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

I'll agree with you there. I feel a blast could make that bad boy really shine. Nice pick up!

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

This order just came in today. Little samples of Mclelland VBC, Georgian Cream, and Three Cherries. Those were to try, the 3 ounces of anni kake are what I'm most excited about.

The pipe will be my second cob, first unfinished, and I must say I like it better than my other MM. The stem insert sits right at the bottom of the bowl instead of leaving a large gap like on my other cob.

This Pete 107 came in yesterday.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

How is your "107" drilled? Will it pass a cleaner? I was thinking of getting one of those next, exact same as yours, but my Drac. won't pass a cleaner another feller who just got a "107" says his is drilled off center and won't pass a cleaner.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Mine is all good. No issues passing a cleaner.....and I just ordered a Drac the other day. 606 blasted style. Took a while to find a stem I liked. Did you say your new Drac is drilled off center?

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Who is doing the blast for you?

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Gorgeous pipe! It's been too long since I smoked a pipe, I will have to rectify that after work today :)

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Picked up a couple of things on opposite sides of the spectrum to see which end I may like better than the other. Here we go......:adam

How much are the Petey 107's, nice looking pipe

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

96 bucks online.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Took me this long to find a nice stem too...at least Peterson will make sure "MY" stem will fit the replacement pipe.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

A gent from another pipe forum said he will be willing to do the blast for me. I have never had any emails or discussions with him prior to asking for him to do the blast. I have seen his work and feel confident he will do a good job.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

can you post a link

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

New pipe come into today. I've been eyeing the Dracula pipes for a while and searched for a stem that I liked. This will probably be my last Pete for a while....at least until the '14 Christmas pipes come out.

Awesome looking pipe!!

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Picked up a tin of 2004 James J. Fox Dorisco Mixture & 2002 Dunhill Baby's Bottom from Pipestud's consignment site.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Baby's Bottom? I assume not an aro of powder and poo? heading to tobacco reviews to see about this one.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Not just because I purchased the tobacco from him, PipeStud has good reviews at TobaccoReviews.com. He does not put the drama into a review, just his honest straight forward opinion. I read his review after I made the purchase...had I seen it sooner, I would have made the purchase sooner. ;)
