Proceed with caution: I've read that customers are still having issues with receiving their orders . If that's no longer the case, I'd love to hear otherwise. Ive got that $50 coupon sitting in my email inbox waiting to be used.
I have ordered several times in the past two months with no problems at all. As a matter of fact I just took advantage of the Father's Day Pipe Special.
Is it just me, or does the "Big Ben Tattoo" pipe, pictured in the latest mailing from Pipes & Cigars, look like what we used to call paraphernalia? It's being offered as part of a bundle with a tin of my beloved Barbados Plantation, a Czech tool, and pipe cleaners. At $19.95, the bundle is a bargain, as the pipe sells for $47.99 at P&C.

While we're on/off the subject: has anyone smoked Sutliff Private Stock Alexander Bridge (it's described as Virginia/Burley Ribbon Cut with Rum and Vanilla flavoring.
Sounds like Barbados Plantation plus vanilla.... I might like it. Anyone have a review?
Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that it’s ug-lee.
I ordered nine assorted tins of English blends last Wednesday and received it on Tuesday this week with free 2-6 day shipping. Was very happy with the turn around on my order.
I have been purchasing tobacco and accessories from P&C since 2016. I regularly receive their paper catalog (I think of it as "pipe porn" ) and their emails. Yesterday, I received an email announcing......
@vtgrad2003; $115.00 a stick is a little out of me price range. Since it's your money, go ahead and indulge. If your wife has a problem with it, Tell her I said you deserve it and it is OK.
My brother and some of the guys we ride with were going to do that with some Sam Adams “Utopias” beer/barley wine. Then raffle the bottle off between us. Sadly, it cannot be sold in Montana, and it’s just tough to find anyway, so it has yet to come to fruition🙁 Those Davidoff cigars sound like something that would be right up my brothers, and our group of friends’ alley. I know they all like their Davidoff’s, but they usually opt for Ashtons because of the price. I might be inclined to buy in as well…one cigar, or another pipe, cigar/pipe/cigar/pipe🤔🙂
@opipeman It's a Davidoff...the best cigar maker in the world (in my opinion). Because I'm poor, I have to settle for Griffins which are made by Davidoff but use the crap swept up off the floor at the Davidoff factory
@opipeman Oh, to answer your question, I’m pretty sure it’s mostly the little paper label wrapped around the cigar. 😬 Sometimes you just gotta splurge to find out, if you can afford it. You never know what you might be missing out on. You only live once….well…..unless you believe in reincarnation🤔. Of course, I haven’t seen too many monkeys/dogs/whales (not human whales) smoking cigars😬
@RockyMountainBriar Do you anticipate being reincarnated as a monkey, dog or whale? In modern times, we'll all be reincarnated either as some sort of gender-fluid non-binary or as Greta Thunberg (cue @Zouave with the Greta car picture!)
Being cool is a state of mind, but you also need to know what you're doing so you don't end up looking like a total dork. Take smoking a cigar for example. If done correctly, you're the coolest guy in the room, but if you don't pull it off, everyone will think you're a loser.
Thankfully, The Babylon Bee is here to explain how to smoke your cigar in a way that will keep anyone who sees you from rolling their eyes or laughing at you. Just follow these helpful tips:
Bite off the tip, then swallow it: This is what real men do.
Consider lighting your cigar with a flaming $20 bill: Expensive? Yes, but think of how cool you'll look.
Only put the non-burning end in your mouth: Trust us, this is a big one.
After accidentally putting the burning end in your mouth, just be nonchalant about it: You can go get treatment for your burns later. Just be cool.
Inhale as deeply as you can: Stop coughing, you lightweight.
Blow smoke rings, then blow a smoke ship that sails through the rings: This works best while wearing a big, pointy hat and having a beard that reaches your stomach.
Say "Wow, this is the best cigar I've ever had!": Especially if it's the first cigar you've ever had.
Don't tell anyone you thought your buddy was referring to people when he said "Let's go smoke some Cubans.": You'll sound really dumb and give people the wrong impression.
Refrain from talking like a gangster from a Bugs Bunny cartoon: We know it'll be difficult, see?
Hollow out a cigar and put a strawberry shortcake vape cartridge in there: Add some extra flavor without anyone knowing.
Start every sentence with "You know, I'm reminded of something G.K. Chesterton said…": This is what all the other cigar guys do. You should do it, too.
Bonus tip: After lighting your cigar, it's best to toss the match behind you, triggering a massive explosion as you walk away in slow motion.
By following this handy list, you'll avoid looking like an absolute goof while trying to smoke your cigar and make everyone think you're way cooler than you really are.

However, I would not smoke this pipe in public, for fear of it's being perceived as a marijuana pipe.

If only I could find someone with a box that would sell just one....
Sounds like you need to find nine other friendly cigar aficionados to split a box.

I appreciate your passion, but I just can't get past the question, what makes a cigar worth $115.00?

My last experience was just ok. The experience before that awful. Overall, meh for me.
