Howdy all. I'm Geoffry. I started my tobacco journey when I was a little fella who would sneak Mom's Lark cigarettes. 🤢
After graduating to cigars and then finally pipes, I've been smoking the briar for well over 20 years.
I'm super sensitive to nicotine so I use small bowled Stanwell pipes and low nic blends most of the time. I've tried filtered pipes, but the filters impart a very odd flavor that I don't like, so that's that.
I really enjoy medium strength English mixtures and Sir Walter Raleigh Regular is my standby. I might not chime in often since I'm a shy guy, but I'll really enjoy reading the posts.
Be well everyone and see you in the forums. 🙃
-Geoff

Welcome oldblue, don't be shy, we need some new faces around here. I know what you mean about filters; I have an almost new Barling here that takes a filter, and after a few smokes I stuck it back in it's box,

I can appreciate being shy and primarily reading what has been posted.
As most here can attest, I have never stirred up any controversy, promoted humorous takes or been of strong opinion.🤓
Welcome to the Patch!!
