Loved the shots and clip of Dublin's Peterson store. I had the pleasure of visiting Dublin in 1966. I was walking down the road with my suitcase and a street cleaner stopped his work and leaned on his broom when he saw me approaching. As I neared him he looked at my suitcase and said, "Taking your case to a higher court?" It just cracked me up. The highlight of my visit.

I took up smoking pipes about two years ago. I was new to it and had to experiment along the way with different pipes and tobacco. I have wasted my money on many pipes not really satisfied with any of them. About a week ago, I decided to try a Peterson pipe - Peterson Aran X220 Rustic Bent Fishtail Pipe (PE2371). For the first time, after two years. I felt this Peterson pipe was perfect for me. It was oozing with quality, felt comfortable and hung nicely. I was so glad to finally find the right pipe I ordered two more Peterson pipes. One was the same as the one mentioned previously and the other was a Peterson Aran XL90 Rustic Fishtail Pipe (PE2447). I am extremely happy with these three Peterson pipes. I have had two Savinelli pipes and later tried cheaper pipes from different makers but... Peterson pipes were the one I was most satisfied with. Thank you for sharing your video experience in Ireland.

Hello from Dublin Ireland. I'm very fortunate to live in the home of Petersons and I've bought most of my pipes from the Dublin store. It's a beautiful shop and the selection of pipes is mindblowing. I'm glad you had the experience of buying a pipe from the fantastic staff there. One thing I noticed you didn't mention was the price and very small range of the tobaccos available in Ireland. Unfortunately in Ireland and The UK the price of tobacco is extremely high and the range is extremely low. A 50g tin would cost almost €40. I buy my tobacco from a UK shop in Northern Ireland which is almost €10 cheaper per tin. When I'm in Mainland Europe, Spain for example I can get 5x50g tins for €50. That's almost 5 times cheaper. Smoking a pipe in Ireland is a very expensive habit and only for people who really get the joy of a good pipe at the end of the day. You guys have no idea how lucky you are with the vast range of tobaccos and pipes you have for a reasonable price in the US. Enjoy your Petersons and hopefully you'll get another chance to visit Ireland again sometime soon.

@hobbitonpiper 5 месяцев назад

I hope so too, I love your country. Be sure to see my review of Peterson University Flake for more scenes of Ireland! Yes, I was disappointed in the tobacco selections and prices, that is very unfortunate. The pipes were very fairly priced tho and a great selection!

Question was there any, for lack of a better term, “Dublin or Ireland exclusive” pipes? Like anything you wouldn’t be able to get in the states? Thanks!

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

That’s a great question, and one that I didn’t ask. You should ask them that when you are there. To me, each pipe is unique. But I hear you…maybe there’s a specific model or store-only series, I don’t know. There were some Peterson “seconds” there at discounted prices

I just went on their website and checked one of the ones that I own and it says sterling silver. I think that I got the idea that they were pure silver from the video on how Peterson pipes are made. Because I know I didn’t just dream that up. So maybe they switch to sterling silver a while ago. Anyway, in any case, they are both beautiful pieces. Sterling is harder so it’s less likely to scratch. That’s a bonus.

Great story Kevin, and what a cool memory of purchasing your Peterson in the actual store in Dublin. I've never been in Ireland but boy that would be cool, my son has and he visited Jameson's distillery and brought back two bottles of Distillery Reserve. He gave me one but on the condition that he and I only partake of it together and with one other very old friend who loves to sample a wee dram as they say. Enjoy your new pipe, it looks great! I now have two Petersons in my collection. Great pipes both of them. BTW the shop brings back memories of when as an undergrad I worked at the Pipe Pub Stores in Houston, TX.

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

Very cool! And a great story about Jameson, love it :)

I have never seen a pipe shop in real life, only pictures and then you have to do your best to pick out a pipe you like and try to imagine the dimensions based on measurements, it was incredible to see the pipes on the wall to just look at, it's so much better than online shopping.

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

Yes there is something really special about looking at pipes in person, holding them, and listening for one that “speaks to you”

@pickingandpiping Год назад

Love it! I visited Ireland in 2006 I think and made a point to visit that same shop, even though I was just an occasional pipe smoker at the time. I bought my one and only Peterson from the shop too. Looking forward to the rest of your video footage.

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

Cool, it’s a great shop!! :)

@nchips9012 Год назад

Hi Kevin, I'm making the very same journey in a few months time and it's reassuring to hear how friendly they are....I can't wait to find a pipe that speaks to me too! Many thanks

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

Let me know what you choose! :)

I almost got the Irish Harp in the 127 cut but landed on the Aran (same cut) with the nickel band instead.

@hobbitonpiper 4 месяца назад

A great choice!!

@G.G.T. Год назад

wow I imagined that would be a bigger store....looks like a tiny but charming little retail shop. I always thought the retail store was in the factory where the pipes were made but it does not appear so unless there is a massive back area or upstairs....do you know if the public can visit the actual Peterson manufacturing factory in Ireland?

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

Different locations. Yes I do believe you can visit the factory, but I’m not sure if appointments are needed.

@brianquilty687 Год назад

A paid trip to Dublin !! You lucky guy !! Ya, Ya, I know you were working but ...... DUBLIN !! I didn't notice any pipe tobacco in your footage ... do they sell tobacco in that store ? You can smoke is a pub there ??

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

They sell tobacco, but each package is completely wrapped in grotesque images of people’s throats/lungs that have been torn up from inhaling cigarette smoke. It’s quite awful and ridiculous for pipe tobacco to be grouped in with the effects of cigarette inhalation. And yes, there are outdoor courtyard areas where you can smoke at many pubs and restaurants there. Quite nice!

@natepetersen499 Год назад

What do you do to get to travel to Ireland for business? Bucket list trip for me as others have said. Nice pipe!

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

I’m an information systems auditor for a global manufacturing company. We acquired a new Branch there

@natepetersen499 Год назад

Very nice! Im sure you don’t really get a say but you should try and encourage your company to see the advantage of acquiring new opportunities near Matamata, New Zealand, (I think that’s the right place) and do. Hobbiton Piper video from The Shire

@@natepetersen499 that would be awesome! Highly unlikely but you never know :)

@themichiganpiper6987 8 месяцев назад

Hey Kevin. I know this is an older video, but we are currently planning a trip to Ireland, and I had question. Towards the end of the video, there's a picture of you smoking your pipe in what looks like a pub. Do they allow that, if so where? I was under the assumption you couldn't smoke in the pubs, and nothing would make me happier than to have a pipe and a pint in an authentic Irish pub.

@hobbitonpiper 8 месяцев назад

They do in pubs that have attached outdoor courtyards, yes. Pretty sure I give the name of that pub as a text overlay in the video

@hobbitonpiper 8 месяцев назад

And just to clarify, they allow you to smoke in those outdoor courtyard areas only. Still super fun and yes you can drink your pint out there :)

@themichiganpiper6987 8 месяцев назад

@hobbitonpiper I'll take it! Thanks man.

@ohiopipper3956 Год назад

What was the prices like compared to here in the states? And did they have any different tobacco’s that we can’t get here? Thanks for the video

@hobbitonpiper Год назад

Availability of product was very much the same. Prices to buy in store appeared to be roughly 15% higher than what you might pay online after shipping for most items, but man that is WELL worth it for the experience you get, and lifelong memories you take with you, supporting the retail store, not to mention the awesomeness of shopping and selecting off the showroom floor in Dublin.

@jydymyyyr9630 Месяц назад

At 10:15 you mentioned you'll be smoking this pipe in an upcoming video. Unfortunately, I can't find that video. Have you posted that video, and if so, can you point me to where I can access it? Thanks!

@@hobbitonpiper Perfect. Started watching the video earlier, but when I saw the travel pipe I thought you were going to smoke from it. Thanks for the clarification. Enjoying your videos!
