Pipes and Tobaccos Print Magazine

For a hobby and activity that is as far out of the mainstream as it is, one could reasonably expect a few come-and-go, short lived publications to represent pipe smoking. Pipes and Tobaccos (P&T) is definitely not that. The quality of the magazine -- the writing, the advertisements, the art, the balance -- are far above what one might expect.At first glance, P&T appears to be a large, glossy, coffee table publication that could be mistaken for a high fashion magazine. And, in its visual presentation, it takes that approach. However, its content is focused, thoughtful, and eclectic. I don't save my magazines. But I'm saving this one.It is a fine companion to an easy chair, a familiar tobacco, background music, and an hour of smoking and reading.

I like this magazine, the editorials are fun, the articles are interesting, I like cruising the ads, pictures of beautiful pipes. The thing is there is no competition and I like a magazine that caters to my hobby, so it's this or nothing. I still like it and would still be a subscriber if there were competition, I'm just saying my choice is this or nothing. I'd be nicer, because I really do like this magazine and have maintained a subscription of a few years now, but they rejected a story of mine, which I thought, though heavily biased, was a pretty good story, especially given that the previous issue had this Arthur Conan Doyle fan fiction piece, the sort of thing that makes you embarrassed to be a pipe smoker. Holmes fan fiction with an O'Henry ending. I still read and reread that issue, excepting the story, several times.

I've been picking up this magazine from the online retailers for years. Great articles and fun to read. The pictures of the pipes are fantastic. Wish I had the $$$ to buy the expensive freehands, but I'll have to settle for the big brands quality pipes. I'm not saying I'm disapointed in my collection. I've got some very pretty Peterson's and Savinelli's I truely enjoy smoking. But you can always dream of the ones you wish you could afford. After years of just picking the magazine up when I order tobacco, I decided to subscribe to the magazine. Looking forward to receiving my first issue.

I purchased this magazine subscription as a gift from Amazon for a pipe smoking friend. I did not know what to get his person who has everything and while looking for books for pipe smokers, I came across this item. So, I ended up purchasing a book, the magazine subscription, and the Zippo Pipe Black Matte Lighter from Amazon. As always, I found everything I needed on Amazon.

If your a pipe smoker it has the most honest info available, with articles and reviews that give pipe smokers what they want, I wonder after 42 of smoking pipes why I waited so long, enjoyable reading

For anyone with an interest in "the gentle art" of pipesmoking, it's customs, history, techniques or technology, "P & T" as it is known to its readers, is the finest magazine available on the subject. Each issue of this glossy quarterly is jam-packed with information on pipes and tobaccoiana, most of which is unavailable elsewhere.Universally well-written articles mix with an editorial atmosphere redolent of the comforting sensibilities of old friends visiting together to make each issue a minor gem. The reviews of the hundreds of available pipe blends are particularly helpful for the pipe enthusiast (by the bye, the Latin term is Kapisiology---a tip of the hat here to P & T).

Great Magazine for the pipe smoking crowd, has stories about famous pipe brands and the people who make them. The magazine contains a monthly review of new and well established pipe tobacco blends.Is a MUST for the pipe collector.

Of the few choices in pipes/tobacco magazines, this is the best. Well written, lots of good information for beginners, advanced smokers, and hobbyist alike. A great magazine.
