Yep. It's tapsclub.org (Tampa Area Pipe Smokers)...I also smoke/collect pipes. I'm just recently returning to cigars a little more. I was basically a cigar kinda guy until a few years ago, when I switched to pipes. I have still had the occasional cigar because several of the guys I hang out with are predominantly cigar smokers. In any event, I still love my pipes, but wanted to focus on cigars for a while...the pipe and pipe tobacco stashes are in good shape. I'll put up a pic of my tobacco cellar some time. If you're not familiar with pipes at all, don't think fruity, sweet aromatics. The natural (non-flavored) english/virginia blends are more akin (albeit different) to cigar smoking, and age beautifully in the tin. So, I've accumulated a few decades worth. Since this has pretty much turned into an intro, just a couple more details. I'm originally from East TN, but now live in Central FL (about 40 miles N of Tampa/St. Pete). I travel the state for work, from Florida City to well out into the panhandle. As I mentioned above, I've been mostly out of the cigar world for several years, so I'm at ground zero newbie-hood. That'll hopefully change by gleaning the info around here.Originally Posted by guado
