    Welcome from Chicago! Seems like you have a good handle on where to begin, it will take a little bit to settle in to a routine and to know what you like. Pipers are playing the long game...

    Mac Baren Navy flake in a Chris Askwith. I can't figure out why sometimes this flake tastes delicious and other times it's just meh.

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2022?***

    Test driving an old longchamp prince gifted to me by a friend with some SWR. It needs a little clean up but it actually smokes much better than I thought it would. I appreciate the history of these pipes and the feel of the leather.

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2022?***

    Hearth & Home Black House in a Tekin Meer. After smoking almost all burleys this past month this blend was not only a nice change but the flavor meter was off the charts.

    I was just gifted a tin of the slices, being a burley lover I'm really excited. Any tips with this blend? Thanks

    Halfway through a bowl of Mac Baren Navy Flake in this Radice Hawkbill rind. Overcast day but nice to be by the water.

    The Root Cause of Tongue Bite

    I'm no expert, but in my experience I can load and smoke two different tobaccos the exact same way and one will bite me and one will not. So it's either certain tobacco's or my personal chemistry, or both. I never get bit from Burleys, and luckily those are my favorite so I'm okay.

    First Crumble Cake

    For me, Bengal slices always requires some more relights than others. I've had luck with using some larger pieces for the bottom half of the bowl lightly packed and then smaller pieces on top using a type of Frank method. I'm not an expert, but it's worked for me.
