Thank you, brothers; your prayers to the Almighty on my behalf are very much appreciated. If you do not believe in the Lord God, then your hopes that things go well for me are appreciated greatly as well.
Question for you folks: Is ThePipery(dot)Com legit? I ordered the Mobile Pipe Rest for $35 and shipping, but I’ve still not gotten a single email stating that they’ve shipped it out to me. I sent them an email over a week ago (or roughly a week ago) and no one has bothered to reply.
I don't know if anyone is interested, but I just spoke with SP and they are not releasing a batch of plain CRF this year! This is one of my two most smoked blends. Instead, they are only doing the CRF with Perique crap...I hate Perique!
@jfreedy Excellent! It looked fantastic and I have three other MM pipes that are all great smokers. I have high hopes for this one too. So have you tried oak alley?
@Londy3 Oak Alley is quite tasty, just smoked a bowlful awhile back. The Charles Town Cobbler is on my list for when I have to fill out an order to get free shipping😉
@vtgrad2003 I’m not a big tobacco hoarder. I did get the two tins I wanted though. Perique 😋. We’ll see, it sounds like it might be a bit stout for me even. I love McClelland’s “Beacon” (I wish I had bought more. Who would have thought they were going to close shop?), the McClelland’s “Beacon Extra” was a bit too much Perique. I’m thinking this CRF/Perique 2021 might be similar, but I grabbed some anyway.
@RockyMountainBriar Finding a good blend is hard enough, finding a great one is next to impossible. I think in most cases we simply "tolerate" what we have. That's why I'm so pissed about CRF this time...that's one of the few blends I really enjoyed.
Well, my mailbox had a couple of tins of the C&D ‘Carolina Red Flake with Perique” in it today👍🏻
I am drying out a bowlful as I type, it is a bit moist. I will say, the Perique in this batch is definitely a “nosegay”….a real funky kinda mustiness. I am not catching the sweet silage smell of the Perique that is present in Sam Gawith’s “Cabbie’s Mixture” (one of my favorites), more of a “swampiness”, I’d say.
@Londy3 Maybe "mushroomy"? It is actually quite tasty. I smoked it in a big Peterson 307 this evening. It was not as spicy or as strong as I had thought it might be.
Brothers (and sisters, if there’s any on here) - just wanted to update you guys about The Pipery (dot com). They got back to me the next day; both of the guys that run the site had gotten sick with that dumb ol’ Covid. They were very nice and very apologetic, and even refunded my shipping charge, which I told him that I didn’t need done as I understand that people get sick. I’ve asked him to add that shipping charge back on to my next order from them. And there will be a next order for sure.
I picked up their mobile pipe rest and guys - it is awesome. Fits right in my cup holder and it definitely does snuggly hold my pipe while I’m driving around. This thing gets the Rondy Seal of Approval for sure and I absolutely recommend it to you folks here.

They appear legit, with a lot of hits on Google, and a Youtube and Faceplant <snark> presence.

Give ‘em a call before despairing. Gremlins happen.
I contacted them with a question about the pocket jars a month or so ago, they replied promptly, but I have not made an order
The pipe is Missouri Meerschaum: Cornell & Diehl Charles Towne Cobbler

Awesome, more CRF w/Perique for me 😂😂

Swampiness just doesn't sound pleasant. Seems kinda stinky 🤢

I looked around thepipery.com but I couldn’t locate the mobile pipe rest you mentioned. Can you point me in the right direction/URL ?
