Capital District Pipe Club at the Chicago Pipe Show 2009

Our Albany, NY based pipe club is a home for all Capital Region residents who love the art of pipe smoking. Founded in 1999 by Scott Bendett, Jules Coleman, Bill Hyde and Larry Loerzel the club now boasts nearly thirty members from the Capital Region, and features world class, Master Blender Russ Ouellette.

Meetings are held on the first Wednesday of each month at 6:00pm at Habana’s Albany location at 1537 Central Ave right off Interstate 87 (the Northway).

Capital District Pipe Club

The best part about the pipe club is it is FREE!! The meetings start at 6:00pm and there is always room for a newbie. The club welcomes all “Brothers (and Sisters) of the Briar”… yes, we are proud to say that we have pipe smoking female members too!

Experienced piper? No problem! Come and meet a great group of devoted pipe smokers who love to exchange recipes, stories and pipe experiences. Newbie? No problem! Learn from the best! Our members are more than willing to share their experience and help make your pipe smoking fun!

Events

We celebrate our love of briar with Holiday Dinners, slow smoke contests, and the ever popular “blend off”, where our members try their hand at mixing their own blend of pipe tobacco. With Master Blender Russ Oullette sharing his expertise and knowledge at every meeting and event, we enjoy many premier activities including sponsoring the Northeast Pipe Show and more.

Future web site plans

The Capital District Pipe Club is sponsored by Habana Premium Cigar Shoppe. Habana was started as a cigar store in 1996. After assessing the market, owner/proprietor Scott Bendett moved swiftly into pipes. Even though Habana started as cigar store, it has quickly turned in to one of the leading dealers of pipes and pipe tobaccos in the entire United States.

As such, we’ve decided it’s time to bring further networking and camaraderie into our club by offering our members and friends a pipe smoker’s community forum. Along with social aspects, this site will include information, news and discussion of pipes, pipe tobaccos and other related topics. Bookmark this page, and keep an eye out for the grand opening of the Capital District Pipe Club’s community forum!
