A Look Back at 2014

A Look Back at 2014

January 2, 2015 by Sykes Wilford

It has become something of a tradition that I write the newsletter introduction for the update that falls closest to January 1st. In the past couple of years, I've written about the emergence of a new enthusiasm for pipes, especially among men in their twenties and thirties. In looking over those, they feel dated now.

Friday was an eventful day for us here at SPC. During work hours we hurried and frantically released Tsuge's new Four Seasons line of tobaccos, which unsurprisingly did very well over the weekend. The real fun happened after work though, as we all came together for our annual Christmas party. There was food, drink, and all manner of aged tobaccos. ... Read More

Last week, Calvin and I attended a week-long Workshop in Rome, Ga. that started on Sunday evening. The first few days were really long and the amount of information coming our way was almost overwhelming. On Wednesday, we were dismissed after a paltry 10 1/2 hours for our first night of freedom. ... Read More

"I pity snails and all that carry their homes on their backs." In recent days, this quip from Tolkien's Frodo Baggins has brought a smile to my face more than once. We here at Smokingpipes.com, along with our sister company Laudisi Distribution Group, have been engaged in the challenging task of moving to a new home, a 30,000 square-foot office space and warehouse to be precise. ...

A Week with Tommi Ascorti

July 18, 2014 by Kathryn Mann

Much to my husband’s lament, I’ve been charmed by an Italian man. This week Smokingpipes.com was host to Tommaso “Tommi” Ascorti of Caminetto Pipes and his renowned mustache. He brought with him a great number of pipes, some pretty bad weather, an insatiable hunger for hamburgers, and a big smile. ... Read More

It's been a few weeks since Sykes and Dennis went to the Inter-tabac International Trade Fair for Tobacco Products in Dortmund, but it sometimes takes a while for the results of such trips to reach the website; whether it be pipes for you to purchase, or photos for you to view in a blog post. ...

I would love to say that I was prepared to take on whatever could be thrown my way, but that would be a drastic overstatement. You see, I’m a bit new to the business of tobacco pipes. I’ve enjoyed a pipe for over 3 years, but that only amounts to about half of a percent of the pipe retail world. ... Read More
