Had a chance to head into downtown and spend some time at the tobacconist. In search of my first pipe, there was a fairly limited selection of Brighams, Medicos, Big Ben’s, et al.
Nothing really spoke to me, but the rep advised there’s a “large” shipment due in next week. I left my name and number and plan on re-visiting. I had a chance to sniff some of the tabacco offerings from Pimlico (Vanilla) aromatic, Very Very (think Cherry chapstick) and even some Virginia blends (Not for me.)
As I was leaving, something caught my eye. It was the Cobs. Not even the regular straight or bent Cobs... but this little bugger. I couldn’t resist. $6.00 Cdn. That’s like.. what? $0.50 USD? I brought it home with me. My first pipe. Now to get the stones to put some tobacco in it.
