    Blending With Candela

    For sure, I know they are mild but I wonder if the mildness and slight green taste could be an interesting effect.

    Blending With Candela

    Has anyone here tried to shred and blend candela leaf before? I’m curious to know how how it turned out. I know you can buy cigar leaf to blend with but I was thinking of purchasing some individual whole leaf and processing it as an experiment. Who knows, Halloween is coming up so maybe I’ll...

    Have You Found "Your Blend"?

    I don’t think I’ve found my blend yet. I’m still discovering new things and I love that about the pipe. I kind of feel like I might lose interest if I found that one blend. I need variety.

    What do You Enjoy While You Smoke?

    Nothing, it’s the one thing I can do that doesn’t take anything else. I sit with my thoughts and I’m happy with that.

    Clenching?

    I have no problem clenching and breathing. Just don’t take huge breaths. Breathing through you nose definitely helps though. I find the right spot when the stem kinda hangs on my teeth. I’ll bring the pipe to the corner of my mouth as well. I also use my lips as a cushion between my teeth and...

    Burley vs. Virginia Taste Evolution

    I enjoy Virginias more than Burley even though the later give me bite more. But I find my pace of smoke affects the bite likelihood even more than the leaf itself.

    Blending Basics

    I’ve been testing out some home blending recently. The forum has a lot of post but I couldn’t find anything on blending basics. Does anyone have suggestions for blending basics or could you recommend some resources?

    Thoughts From Millennials or Younger

    Millennial here, I think a lot of millennials and GenZ value authenticity. Of the “smoker groups” it seems that pipe smokers tend to be the most authentic and approachable people. There’s a nostalgia and casualness that comes with pipe smoking as well. Pipe smoking can be a wholistic experience...

    It’s possible. The only tins he carried were Seattle Pipe Club.

    Michigan Pipe Smokers

    Yeah it’s little ways out but I’ve tried Hill & Hill after finding it on the retail list. He definitely talks highly of his own blends lol. It’s unfortunate because if he was open to more than his own I’d order tins through him.

    Anyone use Nasal Snuff?

    Have any Canadians tried ordering snuff? What was the customs and shipping like? I found one tin of McCrystals at a local tobacconist and I think I want to try some more.

    Michigan Pipe Smokers

    I have Paul’s on my list to see but Flint is an hour drive. That’s why I was trying to find somewhere right in Detroit.

    Smoking in the morning

    I consider myself a morning person but I’ve never got into a routine of smoking in the morning. I think it’s because I always figured I’d have to wake up at least an hour earlier lol. Im curious, what’s your morning routine like? How long do you take to smoke a bowl in the morning?

    Bad Taste In The Morning

    I’ve noticed if I smoke too hard and fast then my mouth tastes worse in the morning. I think the key is getting the right pace and not going hard. It’s a more enjoyable experience overall.
