Hey guys!
This time, I wanted to talk about the very last draws of a pipe bowl/session...
For some reason, my last draws are the worst by far -the tobacco gets bitter, somehow spoiled, and I can barely smoke to the bottom, which, I've been told is crucial for a good cake build-up!
I smoke briar pipes, with 9mm Danish filters, and mostly aromatic tobaccos.
Could it be that I'm doing something wrong? In the end (1/4 of a bowl still on), excess moisture makes its way to the top of the stem, and the taste gets all the bitter!
I saw on a Youtube video another pipe smoker who said that briars actually tend to give bitter last draws,or, to paraphrase it closer to what he said, they are similar to cigarette taste in the end of the bowl.
So, he switched to cobs...
While I'm still waiting my Missouri Meerschaum order, I just wanted to see if it's me, my pipes, or a fact!
I'm now smoking Captain Black Gold...
Cheers ::
