That was a very nice welcome. Thank you Gents.

I just had my first bowl of LJ Peretti 111 in a Dunhill 4612 churchwarden and it was a the most pleasant smoke I have experienced to date.

Warmest Regards,
Richard

Thats awesome. Big LJ Peretti fan myself but I haven’t tried the 111 yet. Are you near Boston?

Hi Abe,

I live in Dallas, but I grew up in Amherst and have been to Boston many times. I now have an excellent excuse to visit again!

I learned about Peretti's from a Virtual Pipe Club YouTube video and order 1/2 lb of 52, 111 and 333 to try a range of Burley blends. I will likely expand my exploration of their offerings in the future and hope to visit in person.

Best Regards,
Richard

Thats a great video. Steve seems like an awesome guy. I just started ordering from them online last year and have been slowly making my way through their blends. They really know what they’re doing!

Welcome to PSF :thumbs:

Maybe try a mild flavored black cavendish . They are pretty much easy going and most enjoy the aroma as well

Everything about this photo is beautiful.

Welcome from New Orleans.

Take a deep dive into the archives. You can learn a lot there as well as waste a lot of time reading about us horsing around.

Welcome to PSF Richard.
Pack it springy and puff it slowly.
It will come in time. :)
