The Complete Pipe Smoker Gift Guide

Posted by Jack Rather on 7th Jan 2021

Did you know that the vintage art of pipe smoking has been gaining more and more popularity each year?

While cigarettes and cigars can offer a great smoking experience, nothing is as refined and personal as smoking loose-leaf tobacco out of one of your favorite pipes. Even the pipes themselves can be intricate works of art worthy of a family heirloom. This is why they make such great gifts.

Are you wondering what products will bring a smile to that special smoker in your life? Keep reading to learn all about what pipe smoker gift you can give to your friends and family members on special occasions.

Dr. Grabow Grand Duke Tobacco Pipe

Dr. Grabow Grand Duke Smooth Tobacco Pipe

When it comes to gifts for a pipe smoker, this is one that's great for shoppers on a budget. It also is the perfect gift for someone who loves smoking but hasn't used a pipe before.

Dr. Grabow's Grand Duke Smooth tobacco pipe is notable for its modern classic billiard shape. Just holding it can make you feel like a million bucks, let alone lighting it up and enjoying a smooth smoke. Despite its inexpensive price tag, the pipe can last a lifetime as long as you learn how to take care of it.

Many users love how easy it is to break the pipe in. It's also a wonderful choice of pipe to take with you on trips. After all, you wouldn't want to bring your most expensive pipe with you and risk losing or breaking it.

Samuel Gawith Squadron Leader Pipe Tobacco

We recommend pairing this pipe with Samuel Gawith's Squadron Leader pipe tobacco. This wonderful English blend is easy on the tongue.

The blend includes Turkish tobacco, Latakia, and also a generous dose of Virginia. The fact that it comes in a ribbon cut makes it hassle-free. All you have to do is load it up and light it up.

Dagner Poker Corn Cob Tobacco Pipe

Dagner Poker Corn Cob Tobacco Pipe

A collaboration between Dagner pipes and Missouri Meerschaum, the Dagner Poker is one of our favorite cobs to date. You can always count on Missouri Meerschaum to find new ways of taking the classic cob and expand its range to even wider tastes and preferences, and getting Jayson Dagner in on the design side really makes this one special. I love all my corn cob pipes, but when I saw they dropped a cob that was a short, clenchably light poker—it's like it was made just to my taste, but I know many others could say the same. 

I love a compact pipe for their comfort while I'm working with my hands or for leaving the house with, but one draw back can be the often small bowls that come with smaller pipes. Another thing to love about the Dagner is that the bowl is big enough to pack plenty of your favorite tobacco. 

Peterson Navy Rolls Pipe Tobacco Tin

As for a tobacco recommendation to go with this pipe, how about De Luxe Navy Rolls by Peterson? This favorite Vaper has long been enjoyed by pipe smokers, and the Dagner chamber really seems to get on with a good curly cut. 

Medium Clay Smooth Tobacco Pipe

Medium Clay Smooth Tobacco Pipe

Are you still wondering what gifts to give a smoker? If so, then consider buying them several clay pipes for a great price. Most clay pipe smokers love such products because they're very lightweight and may for excellent taste testers to really get a pure impression of the tobacco. 

Of course, clay pipes aren't the strongest, but pipe smokers who enjoy them usually keep a stock of a few at a time. Since they're great for taste testing, it's nice to have something so cheap you can dedicate to one type of blend. And much like the corn cob pipe, they're good for those situations where you'd be more concerned about damaging your nice briar or meerschaum. 

You can also choose from a natural, red, or black finish at the end of the stem to bring a little personality to the simple smoking apparatus. 

When it comes to the tobacco itself, why not pair a bright white pipe with a dark black tobacco blend?

Captain Black Dark Pipe Tobacco

Captain Black Dark is made from Black Cavendish and cut into easy-to-pack ribbons. The twist is that this blend is flavored with a vanilla liquor taste that can brighten just about any room with its pleasant aroma. As you smoke it, you're sure to pick up on subtle yet welcome notes of dark chocolate too. There's a reason Captain Black has long been a favorite for Aromatic lovers. This one we especially recommend if the person you're buying for is new to pipe smoking, though it is certainly enjoyed by beginners and veterans alike. 

Savinelli Churchwarden Tobacco Pipe

Savinelli Churchwarden Black Rustic 404 Tobacco Pipe

Tobacco pipe gifting has never been easier with this black rusticated churchwarden brought to you by Savinelli. No, these long smokers aren't just great props, they're favorites among pipe smokers everywhere. 

While the long pipe looks wonderful and evokes something you might see in a fantasy movie like The Lord of the Rings, it can actually help to cool down the smoke given the distance the smoke travels from bowl to mouth. Once you get a taste of that cooler smoke, you'll know that you've given a special gift to your loved one.

Bengal Slices Pipe Tobacco Tin

We recommend trying flavor-bursting Bengal Slices. The complex profile of his blend makes it perfect for those smokes when you aren't on the move or otherwise occupied, but sitting back and indulging in the experience, picking through the profile of the blend. Of course, this is what a Churchwarden is great for. 

The blend in question is a genius combination of Oriental, Latakia, Virginia, and Black Cavendish. While the room note isn't the most aromatic, it's also far from something that you and others won't be able to tolerate. In terms of English blends, this is one of the best out there.

Country Gentleman Tobacco Pipe Set

Missouri Meerschaum Country Gentleman Corncob Gift Set

Nothing beats the country gentleman tobacco pipe gift set. This pair of corn cob pipes from Missouri Meerschaum is especially great for a pipe smoker who is building up a rotation, needs more pipes that aren't too expensive to smoke while working in the yard or garage, or (and I love this idea) it could be a gift for both you and you loved one—each take a cob and explore it together.

The barrel shape is a different take on the ol' cob, and the bent and straight stems bring a little variety to the pack.
