So I know not a cigar forum but Chit Chat so thought I would see if there are others that maybe smoke cigars as well? I smoke Pipe and Cigars with over a 200 pipe collection lol. No not 200 costly ones just normal and vintage Pipes.

Today Smoked a 6x60 Gurkha Prize Fighter XO.. Not the best cigar I smoke of theirs but is a good go to cigar that I don't mind sharing with family and friends. Didn't take a picture of yesterdays but my son and I smoked a Gurkha Grand Reserve Maduro Torpedo.

One of only 2 of my sons that smokes cigars with their pops.. The other shared one with use on a Video call from Cali..

One day my son and I will make a glass table with our Cigar bands. It is on my to do list of things that I want to do anyway, Maybe after I smoke a Gurkha Black Dragon LOL.. as if I would ever be able to afford them...

I smoke faster then they do...

I smoked a pipe many years ago and enjoyed it. I had 5 or 6 pipes including a meerschaum. I used to get my tobacco from a pipe shop in Dallas, of course it is long gone. I imagine a pipe shop would be hard to find now days.
 
Wow really? I mean there are a good few places around where that still sell pipes.. I have a few Meerschaum pipes my self. Some that come with the nice little case.. Having a darned hard time getting it colored lol.. I mean the more you smoke though it it should color.. It is just taking it sweet time.. One of my Favorite Briar pipes is my Savinelli Roma 620 that is their interpretation of an Oom Paul.. I have a few in that shape from other brands.. I do get most of my Tobacco from Pipes and Cigars dot com. One of my Favorite Pipe Tobaccos was Mac Baren Silver Cube.. I can't find it anymore.. For a while no longer sold in the Cube and had to buy bulk only and that was fine but can't even seem to find that anymore lol.. I have many different ones I smoke. BlackHouse, White Knight, from Hearth & Home is my go to tins today.. I have many different ones I like. Orlik Golden Slices.. There are just so many..

I smoke cigarettes, Once in a blue moon my Dutch relatives or friends of friends will bring over a pouch of that Van Nelle Zware Shag Tobacco and we roll one up. Oh so good.. Would love to get my hands on some of that here in Canada.

I do not smoke cigarettes, I can count on both of my hands how many I have had in my life. But I do love cigars. My company has colleagues from the Netherlands and one guy who I have gotten to be good friends with rolls his own.

Whenever he goes out for a smoke I generally go out with him and have him roll one up for me. Very tasty, I do not know what brand of tobacco he uses, but what I do know is that if I ever moved to Holland I would probably be a smoker.

I didn't think about looking online, guess I was thinking of the brick and mortar stores.
