I think we should just admit it out loud, we’re all low-key obsessed with the Lord of The Rings, even after two decades since its first part was released. The Lord of The Rings and its prequel The Hobbit have always had a stoner undertone, according to many film critics and analysts. The protagonist Gandalf, who was a friendly, “smiley”, middle earth wizard is often seen smoking a “sweet flower/plant” in his “Gandalf” pipe during the films, which people believe is a weed analog. Furthermore, this article will be covering the 12 best Gandalf pipes on Amazon.
So, although the origin of the herb that the main characters traded and smoked is not very clear, the stoner community gladly believes the weed analog story and loves to associate themselves with the “Great White” (Gandalf).
In honor of the 20th year of release of the first part of the Lord of the Rings, we bring you a collection of the 12 best Gandalf pipes available on Amazon. These pipes are crafted in a Churchwarden style with deep bowls and long stems. Their unique style allows you to draw cool, smooth draws and keep the smoke from burning your lips. Not only will their impeccable style give a touch of sophistication to your smoking sessions but the pipes will also serve as irreplaceable collectibles to your Lord of the Rings memorabilia.
Each item has a link that takes you directly to its Amazon page. Read on, choose your favorite item, and await your new Gandalf pipe!
