Was tempted to try some Kendall Kentucky Vintage Cut since @Fr_Tom likes it. Maybe next time. Prices are higher than online sources but I never order enough for free shipping and the added Maryland excise tax on tobacco makes it a wash, and I get to sniff the jars and look at pipes in the flesh, not to mention smoke. He carries over 300 different blends, tinned and bulk. Sadly no Five Brothers.

Sounds much better than my local store who only has a dozen pipes and selection of smokables smaller than my bottom drawer. I’d like to support a brick and mortar store but a 3 hour drive + gas is more expensive than the free shipping threshold.

That's a great looking spot with quite a selection!

It is a nice shop. Off the beaten path so say to find parking too. Hard not to get carried away so I only bring a set amount of cash.

Next time I will get some. They don’t carry Orion’s Arrow or Virginia Gentleman, two C&D blends that I like. However I will try Kendall Kentucky because @Fr_Tom has not led me astray (yet).

Got a cute little ashtray along with a 5 pack of St. Bruno from Estervals in Germany.
Also got a couple of spare parts for my old boy lighter. A leaf spring & a spring for the flint. Don’t see spare parts here & I noticed these on Estervals site. Only 7 or 8 euros for both parts, which I thought was quite cheap.
