@Stubble asked me if I'd like to try some of his g&h Caribbean coconut (I said yes) and if I'd ever tried sun bear ( I said no). He used this opportunity to send me more tobacco than the two we'd talked about. This makes twice he's overwhelmed me with his generosity. Fortunately I have a way to return the favor....
Thanks, Steve.

In my opinion, yes. Some say they smoke hotter than briar. This is my second olive wood pipe, and I do not notice it being a hotter smoke. Some also say they will not last as long...we will have to wait many years for that answer from me. I think they have a "sweetness" to them.
You're very welcome, Steve. Just trying to repay your generosity. I hope that goat pipe brings you many hours of enjoyment. You know what they say... No good deed goes unpunished.

Received a box from CI yesterday. Haven't ordered from them in a month or two. Opened it and found the pipe cleaners I ordered on Amazon. Strange. Didn't notice who the seller was.

Got this in today. Couple blems but smokable. It's a Grain de Luxe Algerian Bruyere apple. Probably a really cheap pipe. Probably paid way too much. Not much info on Grain de Luxe pipes in a quick Google search.

What kind of wood is that?
Trapped in the People's Communist Republic of Massachusetts.
Olive
Looks good. As durable as briar?

Well, @ShawnOL shoots back! An amazing selection of sticks with the Espinoza being new to me.

A huge sample of Sutliff Medium English, and a tin of Maple Street. Both new to me!

And for the coup de grâce, check out this figural meerschaum pipe by Paykoc...

Simply amazing Shawn, thank you very much!
Stubble got rammed!
Niice!

Got hit with an excellent selection of cigars and a push into pipes. Thank you @ShawnOL.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
My pleasure, Dave. Enjoy.

Someone has PAD baaaad 😂 but it’s good right🤫
A good cigar and whiskey solve most problems.
Got in a tin of spc plum pudding. Several of you guys smoke it so I figured I'd give it a go.

Bought my first pipe. Was going to wait for warmer weather but this one really spoke to me. Older Kaywoodie Octagon.
Nice panel pipe.
