Hello lovely people of the pipe world. I've been smoking pipes for around 3 years now and I would consider myself somewhat of a beginner when it comes to knowledge. In my personal experience what I've found consistently is that flakes almost always tend last better than other tobacco types. My latest example would be I got one tin of Ilsted's Golden Flake and one tin of Dunhill Nightcap two weeks ago. While the Flake is almost the same as the first day, Nightcap while still retaining that beautiful aroma and lovely flavour has now come to burn faster and hotter and therefore my enjoyment has deteriorated quite considerably. Is this a statement that you would agree or is there a mistake of my own? That's what I'd like to know.
