Two of our favourite pipes and a new sampler!

We don’t usually like to pick favourites here at Turmeaus but these two pipes are beautys. Both offer the coolest of smokes and allow for you to really taste all of the flavours.

Rattrays Turmeaus GR5 pipe. This pipe was made exclusively for Turmeaus shops and has the quality of a Rattrays pipe.  A really smooth and cool smoke. These were a limited edition of only 10 pipes made to promote our Turmeaus shops and so a rare pipe, ideal for the collector. Rattrays never fail to impress when it comes to quality and its no different with this pipe, perfection down to the last detail.

We wouldn’t usually rate a pipe just on it’s stem but how could we not with this one. Savinelli Oceano 606 pipe. The stem is a mix of glorious blue and white really living up to its name and tribute to the foaming ocean.The bowl is also a beautiful shade of brown, definitely reason enough to be one of our favourites.

We also have a treat for you, I have put together a sampler full of great flavours and aromas especially for you guys. Every week I will be putting together a new sampler. Each one will consist of 5 different blends with an arry of aromas and flavours.  Check it out here.

Available in this sampler:

Dunhill Navy Rolls – 10g

Peterson De Luxe Mixture – 10g

Mac Baren Black Ambrosia – 10g

Germains Gold Leaf – 10g

Samuel Gawith Spring Time Flake – 10g

Hopefully you can enjoy this one before we move onto the new sampler next week. Have a good weekend.

A year of great pipes, so far!

As we get through 2018 our stock of pipes is always increasing, pipes from Peterson, Rattrays, Savinelli, Chacom and many more are all becoming available in all Turmeaus shops. We always look forward to the pipes of the year and a long awaited one for us is the Peterson 2018. Once again they have impressed with a masterpiece, and only 500 have been made so be sure to get in quick if you want one of these magnificent pipes.

The 2018 Pipe of the Year is another unique addition to the annual release for which Peterson is famed. This year’s edition possesses an elegant oval shank and a generously sized chamber that is neatly tapered at the base. Each pipe is finished in a rich chestnut hue and is fitted with an acrylic fishtail mouthpiece and a hall marked sterling silver band.  The 2018 Pipe of the Year is available in Smooth, Sandblast and Rustic finish.

Next up we have a new edition to our Rattrays range. Rattrays have always been quite imaginative when it comes to pipes but this next pipe not only has a creative bowl but is available with three different stems. The Rattrays Beltane Fire.  You will be supplied with a red, black and yellow stem, really making this pipe live up to its name of fire. You can’t let that name fool you as the smoke you get from these beauties is incredibly smooth and cool. A pipe you won’t want to miss for your collection.

The next one is somehow even more special than the other two. Davidoff are known for their excellence when it comes to crafting cigars but the same can be said when it comes to their pipes. Not only do they look spectacular but they are constructed so perfectly you are going to have this pipe for life.

The one I’ve picked out as one of my favourites is the Davidoff Discovery Brasil. For the Discovery pipes Davidoff have used briar wood from Calabria, with age, the briar root becomes tight and dense enough to resist both the heat of lighted tobacco and the juices produced during the smoke. The briar is dried for 10 years and the pipes are made in Germany.

As you know we don’t only sell pipes, we also have some new tobacco treats for you. Like the long awaited pipe to come Peterson have also released  their yearly summertime tobacco. A wonderful blend of Peterson’s tobacco to create a perfect blend for this Summer.

I hope this can give you some ideas if you’re looking to add the perfect pipe to your collection or if you’re looking for that perfect summer tobacco.

Have a great weekend,

Liam

 

Some of our Favourites!

We have a wonderful range of pipes. From straight to bent we’ve got what you are looking for, take a look at some of our favourite pipes below.

Dr Plumb Original Briar Pipe

This pipe has a beautiful smooth finish and a bent stem. Featuring a metal filter system, reducing the tar and nicotine intake giving you a smoother and more satisfying smoke.

For the quality you are getting this pipe is reasonably priced at £59.99. It’s definitely a good start up pipe perfect for any novice or and everyday pipe for the more experienced pipe smoker.

 

Peterson Aran Smooth Pipe – 150

The Peterson Aran pipe range is one of its classic ranges, providing a quality pipe at a reasonable price. Named after the Aran Islands in Galway Bay, they offer outstanding value of money whilst still filled with all the craftsmanship that one has come to expect from a Peterson pipe. A smooth matt masculine briar complete with fishtail mouthpiece.

Chacom Wedze Smooth Semi Bent 863 Pipe

Chacom originates from the amalgamation of Chapuis & Comoy. Chacom remains today the largest French brand capable of combining tradition, Creation & Innovation.

The stem on this pipe is beautiful, white with hints of gold really making this an extremly attrctive pipe.

Peterson Atlantic Briar Pipe – 068

The Peterson Atlantic Series range of pipes were introduced to the pipe market in early 2015. Another bold and exciting range from Peterson, as they try to shake up the world of pipe smoking. Beautiful deep and rich blue stain on the bowl shapes with a gorgeous olive green marbled mouthpiece. The polished Nickel band is inscribed ‘Atlantic’ and gives the pipe a nice finish. The fishtail mouthpiece has the exit hole in the end of the mouthpiece for a comfortable smoking experience.

Just a few of our favourites but there are many more.
