FMC is my go to blend. Could smoke it exclusively and be a happy camper. :pi

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Apparently my regular mail carrier is on vacation because my neighbor walked over last night with a few boxes I've been waiting for.

Picked up a Brian Doran pipe

Another Jake Hackert cob. Love these pipes. For 25 bucks they can't be beat.

I'll second that! Like the Moonshine seconds pipe too!!

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

These arrived the other day. 2 tins from Oct 2011 and 1 from Mar 2008. I was lucky to swoop on in to Pipestuds as the email arrived...

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Nice pickups! :tu
I bet Pipestud has one heck of a cellar. I imagine he gets first crack at anything and everything.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Thanks Steve. I'm sure he has one heck of a cellar in his hallway closet:D A majority of his offerings come from others that for some reason or another, want to move their own cellars. What I enjoy about his site is, the tins and bags are priced somewhat reasonably (except for the Estoterica, which I refuse to even look at)...

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Well done guys...

I grabbed 5 tins of the new Carolina Red Flake from C&D.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Don't know if anyone is interested by a guy has a couple pipes for sale on OLH that seem too cheap haha ... the guy selling them is from what i've seen and heard a stand up guy.

Nice looking pipe Doug. Enjoy. :pi

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Yes. I trade done away, and I opened another that had no signs of any growth. I'm still deciding weather to keep them or not.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Thanks! Iv'e been after a Peterson pipe for sometime. Snagged this one for $58 bucks :tu

Picked up a couple more cobs modified by Jake Hackert. :pi

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Chris (Sancho) was offering-up some aged tobacco tin's here on the forum, and I purchased a couple of '07 McClelland Grand Orientals Drama Reserve...

http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/g...pslfg1obfw.jpg

Chris included a couple of body guards, samples of '99 Samuel Gawith 1792 Flake and '09 Davidoff Flake Medallion...

Thank you Chris...:tu

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Did he have those on eBay ?

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Yeah, Jake puts up at least a couple cobs per week when he lists his briar pipes.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Good deal, thanks

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread

Got some great service from Peretti. Very helpful to a Canuck. Recommended.
I'm yet to try the Thanksgiving, but waiting.....

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Mark - are those paint tin style jobbies form Peretti airtight?

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Hello Neil, I would think so, but do not know the long term at this time. I just sent an email to Peretti' inquiring about "just how airtight are the 8oz tin's in regards to cellaring over a period of time."

I'll let you know once I have received a response back from them.

I don't know how long the tin's are sealed prior to a customer receiving one from Peretti' (i.e., are the tin's on the shelf for a period of time, or does Peretti' fill em' up per order?).

BTW, I just received two 4oz bricks of the Thanksgiving Day blend, and an 8oz tin of #8 Slice Flake from Peretti' last week:tu

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

I've kept tobacco in Peretti's paint tins for a year or more. No worries unless you plan for long term cellaring.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

:hn. With the tobacco apocalypse looming, might need 20 years ability on some blends...

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

That's good to know Warren. I would think a little "sealing wax" around the plug on top would help longevity too.

Still awaiting feedback from Peretti'...

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

1st TAD order in awhile as I've been focusing on cigars. Bought the CB Grape because of the influence of a another forums thread. Has a strong grape jelly smell.

Edited to say it's more of a childrens grape cough medicine smell.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Nice haul Rich:tu But, the Captain Black Grape?:confused:;)

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Yeah I had to do it. Curiosity got to me.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

But then I came back with this.
http://i1377.photobucket.com/albums/...ps6ehkp1cv.jpg

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Hot ziggity! Nice little lot Rich. I'm getting into their tobacco now - esp like the Royal and Tashkent. Haven't broken open the Thanksgiving Day, but it smells pretty good!

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Did Peretti ever reply regarding the paint tin air permeability?

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

They did not Neil, which is a little frustrating. It was a very simple email request too.

For myself, I'm not really worried about it. On the two paint tins I have, I know once I open one of them, I'll work from the tin for a bit, and then transfer over Kerr or Mason jars until conclusion.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Was running low on some stuff:

Only had 1000grams of this cellared, and about 250g left of the open one, so I picked up another 500gram box.
http://s3.amazonaws.com/tobrev/t/958...7739589075.jpg

Opened up the first pint of my last pound and half of Peter Stokkebye Luxury Twist Flake, so ordered another 1/5 pound package.
http://s3.amazonaws.com/tobrev/t/pet...wist-flake.jpg

In looking around, I realized I only had 1 quart jar with this in it, so I ordered another 8oz of Gawith & Hoggarth Bright CR Flake. (Yes, I do not smoke as much of this as the 2 previous.
http://s3.amazonaws.com/tobrev/t/005-001-0023.jpg

Getting other images was easier than taking pics.

Also got 4 oz of Gawith & Hoggarth's new Cherry Cream flake to test drive. First bowl was favorable, nice Virginias and the cherry/cream was nothing like the cloying stuff normally associated with cherry blends.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread
 

Interesting pulls on the Peretti tobaccos. Interesting because I do not know that I have ever tried any of their blends in the last 30+ years.

(time lapse to do some investigating...)

Ahh, I see now why. MacBaren blends bite me like a rabid dog, not sure why, but there is not a blend of their I tried that did not. And as I looked at Tobacco Reviews, I saw a few there that would be up my alley, but there were a couple that said they have to be treated with kid gloves of they'll bite. I now remember visiting the shop in Boston while I lived in Connecticut. I think I was warned, so I just avoided - or I may have sampled one while there, and decided to avoid further attempts.
