I’m just some guy.

My name is Michael, and Timber & Smoke is something I’ve been building with my own two hands—sometimes literally. It started with a camera and a pipe, posting videos on YouTube about joys of pipe & cigar smoking. I didn’t set out to build a brand—I just wanted to share what I loved: the craftsmanship, the quiet moments, the stories, and the deeper meaning wrapped up in a bowl of tobacco and a good conversation.

But over time, Timber & Smoke began to grow.

Today, it’s still just me behind the scenes—but now it includes more: I’m beginning to handcraft tobacco pipes, one at a time, designed to be smoked, used, and passed down. I publish a small, independent print magazine that explores pipe culture, old-world craftsmanship, and the pursuit of a thoughtful life. And soon, I’ll be launching a mobile cigar cart available for weddings, events, and gatherings.

Timber & Smoke is about more than smoking. It’s about building something lasting—something slower, deeper, and more intentional.

So whether you found me through the YouTube channel, Instagram, or a conversation by the fire, welcome. I’m glad you’re here.
