How often do you have a bowl which could be defined a good smoke?
If you're one of those who smoke more than 5 bowls a day, is it just a habit?

Why can habitual smokes not be good? I smoke the likes of Penzace and McClelland when working, doing yard work, or reading all of the time and enjoy every one. Even when I smoke cigarettes I fully enjoy that too.If you're one of those who smoke more than 5 bowls a day, is it just a habit?
+1...Why can habitual smokes not be good? I smoke the likes of Penzace and McClelland when working, doing yard work, or reading all of the time and enjoy every one. Even when I smoke cigarettes I fully enjoy that too.
Absolutly. I go back and forth between the types of smoking. I've been on a big deertongue kick lately and have been exclusively smoking blends that contain it for the past few weeks and only changed up today with Rich Dark Honeydew. Maybe some Black Frigate in the morning with coffee, maybe some Brown Sugar Flake.Nothing against the guy who only smokes periodically and may take months to finish a single blend.
What do you mean "Just a habit"? I try hard to make all my daily habits (eating, smoking, morning coffee, other things I won't get into) as pleasurable and interesting as possible. Quotidian pleasures are where it's at in life, as far as I'm concerned. If I'm working at home near my stash, I can put away a dozen bowls in a day, each of them a different outstanding tobacco, and enjoy every last one. Unless I burn my tongue early on, in which case I switch to cigars.is it just a habit?
I smoke the likes of Penzace
The effects of alcohol.? I've got a few pounds of Penzance from 2007 that are actually smokable.I was momentarily shocked that you were smoking Penzance before I realized it was Penzace. I'm guessing that's a pirated blend of some kind.........
That's exactly what has been on my mind but I really couldn't come to an end so I decided to create this thread.Why can habitual smokes not be good?

By just I mean those smokes which are caused by the need to have a pipe in the hand and puf on it, regardless the blend or the intentional enjoying a specific flavour.What do you mean "Just a habit"?

Nice one. :D That kind of answer would probably tell that a "sweet spot" has been hit and somebody would feel unpleasant about smoking that much.Question #2: I'm not one of those, but I imagine that those who are would say... that it's none of your business?
My amateur understanding of a "good smoke" would be every smoke that is really pleasant for at least half of the time when I'm smoking. I knew somebody would ask why "5 bowls". ? Roughly 5 bowls is a limit that I rarely exceed during the day. I wish my body would allow me to clench and enjoy more different tobaccos but assuming that one pipeful lasts approximately 45min and if one smokes 5 bowls a day that would be almost 4 hours of holding a pipe. And that's quite a lot for having one hand occupied for let's say 25% of the time when being awake. :Dluigi: What's your definition of a "good smoke?" "5 bowls" is pretty arbitrary. How did you arrive a "5"?
It's been many years since I've experienced a bow less than "good" by my definition. I smoke more than "5" bowls a day because I enjoy my pipe. If I didn't enjoy my pipes I'd not smoke pipes and stick with cigars and cigarettes.
Yeah, I honestly don't have smokes like that in a pipe. When I smoked cigarettes, sure - I didn't give a damn what they tasted like, for the most part. I've finished tens of thousands (literally) of cigarettes I didn't actually want or enjoy, but I'll dump a pipe or at least put it down the instant I stop enjoying it. It's a much different habit.By just I mean those smokes which are caused by the need to have a pipe in the hand and puf on it, regardless the blend or the intentional enjoying a specific flavour.
Well I cought myself a few times smoking on even when there wasn't any joy any more. ? I'm glad it was in time before I continue that bad habit from cigarettes.Yeah, I honestly don't have smokes like that in a pipe.

This guy gets it.Quotidian pleasures are where it's at in life

The longer I go between smokes, the better the smoke is.
