We are from Eastern Ontario and been into tobacco pipes almost a year now. I started with aromatics but I am definitely finding English blends much more to my liking lately and I use them almost exclusively now while my spouse is sticking with her aromatics. The tobacco taxation situation had us try our hand at growing burley and virginia here on our property for the first time; hopefully next year I have better luck after learning from this years tobacco crop mistakes. We have a small collection of under a dozen pipes but most of them are hand made in either Denmark, England, Turkey or the US. The collection includes a Meerschaum gourd Calabash, Dunhill, Vesterholmn, Ser Jacopo, BBB, Peterson and a Brandon Brooks custom built Rhodesian.
