So I have been a cigar smoker for many years (1995), but recently jumped over to the pipe, and love it.
So recently I found 2 tobaccos that I really enjoy (Macanudo - Lane Limited) & (Frog Morton cellar). I have 4 pipes at this time. (1)Luca Vanetti Rhodesian (5.5"), (2) Corleon (Rosewood pipe), (3) Baraccini Pocket Pipe (4.4"), and a (4) Mini Missouri Meerschaum cob (3.5").
Here is what I have noticed and also my question: I smoked both of these tobaccos in my full size pipes (Luca Vanetti and Corleon) and they are absolutely awesome, I taste and smell every flavor and enjoy them. But when I pack them in to the smaller pipes and smoke them, all I taste is plain smoke. The flavor and aroma disappears. Is that common because of the shorter pipes? I did not just notice this one time, I actually tested it a few times with the same results. Switch back to my full size pipe and presto, I enjoy these tobaccos immediately, switch back to the mini-pipes and tastes like I am battling to get out of a burning house. I know that some of you seasoned smokers will be able to explain this phenomenon to me. Thanks,
