Dear Arno,
My name is Ivan, I’m a pipe smoker from Moscow, Russia.
Would you be so kind to tell about pipe tobacco shops over the Netherlands which are worth visiting?
In the November 2014 I went to Netherlands on my vacation, accompanied by my friend Yuriy, who is a passionate pipe smoker as well. We really hoped to visit some tobacco shops in Amsterdam, to buy and try something new blends, which are, perhaps, not easy to find in Moscow. We visited a bunch of stores but was not really impressed. The biggest choice was available in the Amsterdam Pipe Museum, but it was still far from perfect. There was no brands like G.L.Pease, Two Fiends, McClelland and even no Samuel Gawith (which actually keeps the best quality-to-price ratio in Russia and that’s why it is widely smoked here). That was not really a problem, for we took about 8 or 10 nice blends from Russia, but still that was a disappointment.
So, in July 2015 my friend Yuriy is making another journey to Netherlands. We tried to google for some nice tobacco stores, which are really worth visiting in Amsterdam, Hague and Rotterdam, but still found nothing special.
I know that your blog is non-commercial. I’m sure you do not support any particular store. But I’m just asking for a help like, you know, from one pipe smoker to the other.
If you could tell us where it’s possible to find some interesting high-quality blends, it would be very nice.
I hope that my friend will provide something special to our small pipe club of friends, and we will share some great new smoking experience together. I’m sure you know what I mean.
Thank you in advance!
Yours sincerely,
Ivan Novak
