You could order a Blakemar Briar online straight from the manufacturer in England. Best pipe for the money. www.blakemar.co.uk
I'm completely the opposite. I can have a pipe or two a week or a month and enjoy them immensely without ever "needing" it.
In spite of the learned opinions above I quite enjoy a cherry cavendish.
I envy folks that can do this. I have admitted long ago that nicotine was my drug of choice, and I have tried to use a pipe occasionally, only to end up smoking a pack of day of Marlboro Lights, within a short while.
Buy a Missouri Meerschaum corncob pipe with a hardwood plug in the bottom of the bowl. You can learn the techniques of packing, lighting & cadence with it. Don’t know about in Germany but they are inexpensive & you can even buy a mixed bag of factory seconds from Missouri Meerschaum. Don’t buy a new drugstore briar pipe. If you take to it then you can learn to clean, sanitize & smoke “Pa’s“ pipes without harming them.I don't want to become a real pipe guy, you know. Just a bit "sniffing" into the topic.
