Hey Pipe Smokers,

1st. How many of you all smoke a churchwarden? If so, what brand and length?

2nd. What brand do you smoke in your churchwarden?

3rd. Wife keeps asking what I want for Christmas...really nothing...but she won't accept that. I do have a few pipes that if I have the time I will use them. Most are a poker or barrel style, but I love the way a churchwarden looks and I did have one. Very smooth and cool smoke with the long stem.

I was feeding cattle and laid it down on the bumper of my truck, forgot it, and drove off...never did find it. It was a nice Peterson Churchwarden.

***Has anyone owned or currently own a German Vauen Churchwarden?***

Vauen Nobile Churchwarden collection:

Yes it was Vauen that was licensed to do the Lord of the Rings pipes for the movies and now They stopped because Warner Brothers/New Line Cinema had them to in 2011-2012.

Now they make "The Shire" style, a copy of TLOR and Hobbit pipes. I'm not into The Lord of The Rings or The Hobbit movies, but I do like these pipes!!

They're not an all wood stem(acrylic tip is a must) and they're made by a quality company...Vauen

anyone else like the churchwarden pipes?? Vauen pipes??

I have an old Peterson 303(I have had it for about 16 years IIRC):

Unfortunately I haven't smoked out of it in a while(at least since I moved back to OK). I need to get a new stem for it, but haven't had luck searching online. There are a couple of tobacco shops down the road, I just need to go visit them and pick up some tobacco and hopefully a new stem.

I have commissioned my local guy to build one like your Peterson, but with a bowl about half that size. Think Leonardo DiCaprio's in Django Unchained.

He is new to it, but has already built one for me and one for my brother.

How do you keep a long stem like that cleaned ?? I had enough probs with a pipe like Coded-Dude pic.

I smoked a stoker years ago. Don't really miss it.

cznick...

The stem detaches fron the bowl. With the stem removed, a person uses the longer pipe cleaners. Most to all of the Vauen made pipes you can use a filter-charcoal, balsam, and others. This will also.help capture moisture..or at least reduce it. In the bowl, with a pipe tool cleaner. I have seen filter material you can place in the bowl before you put in the tobacco...yes, they're flame resistant.

The other pipes I have are "regular" length.

Cohib.....I figured the stem detatches, but I wondered if you had extra long pipe cleaners. Didn't know they had material for the bowl. I have used filters ,but they didn't last long before they were clogged.

I have a Dunhill, and usually keep a Corncob in my bag as well. I usually buy the store brand, wherever I'm at, tending towards flavored Cavendish. Drew's has a blend they call wild cat, that is the droppings from around there scale. It's cheap, and I buy it for grilling with.

I'm a big Petersen believer. Petersen, period.

I love Peterson pipe tobacco. I just ordered a tin Peterson's Sunset Breeze from Cup O Joe's...great aromatic with a great taste.
