Pipe aficionado, carpenter/woodworker here. I simply LOVE the plank walls behind you. Could you tell me if that was a kit install for you, with pre-surfaced boards, or did you do that beauty yourself.
@cioccciocc I have no idea to be honest. It was like that when I bought the place. But they look like they came pre-made and then were finished once installed.
@libeldo Yep you heard some German. I really should try to speak more German in my videos as I have a number of views that speak it. But I have to admit my German is pretty rough.
Well it definitely looks like you get your moneys worth with the sampler kit! The coolerdor is definitely the way to go, I had two of them going before I finally moved up to a cabinet. Cheap and easy to maintain good humidity!
good kit, 3 baccys could be 30 usd alone. i just bought 3 baccys in germany a flake ( 50gr) loosse cut ( 100 gr) and a tin of dunhill nightcap ( 50 gr) cost me 29 euros all together.
Great way to get started in the hobby there Jay! Thats really a hell of a deal! its like getting a decent basket pipe with all the shit you'd pay another 30 bucks on. Some one should be a happy camper!
I bought a starter kit similar to that from tobacco-barn. Only difference was it was a corncob pipe instead of a briar and no pouch. Starter kits are a great idea for just about anything.
My poor man's humidor is that bag I showed once before. It's about $5, holds 5 cigars, and has that humidipack from the dog treats in it. Lasts about 6 months, then just the humidipack gets replaced. I have one at work, and one at home.
@drumspipes Do you get any dog treat taste in the cigars? I've gotten a few of those packs in dog treats but was worried they would impart some extra flavor.
@dighsx You haven't had a Pupperoni Avo? The local tobacco shop actually sells them quite cheap to refill the Arturo Fuente humidor bag. They're ones specifically designed for 68 or 69% humidity. Another bonus is the bag is easily hidden from the lady I live with.
I am told that American aromatics are a lot stronger flavoured then the ones over here, I would love to try one some day. Planning on visiting the Us next year, so fingers crossed.
Quite reasonable starter kit, the price is almost unbelievable especially with so many different accessories in there. I believe that the Peter Stokkebye blend is either the US version of W.O. Larsen Sweet Aromatic or Mellow & Tasty. They're quite good for starters, I smoked many packets of Larsen years ago and they're serious aromatics.
Thanks for showing it to us, if I lived in the US I'd be considering that kit as an easter egg for a few friends.
@DailyPuffer I think this is what they call a loss leader item. The store might loss some money on this kit but if they can get ya started you'll come back and buy more stuff. All that said, it is a great deal for us.
nice prize. i am sticking with.GIVE MY PIPES AND BACCY TO DIGHSX. trust me no one in my family will know who you are and you would never recieve the stuff. lol
guess i will have to put you in my will so they know how you are.

Good luck getting over here to visit.
