    Ruined a Perfectly Good Bowl of Tobacco in This Failed Design

    Absolutely NOT! Kirstens smoke like a champ. my all time favorite pipes to smoke. This post is about the Bartlett upside down pipe.

    Ruined a Perfectly Good Bowl of Tobacco in This Failed Design

    It was in a lot I bought a while back. Back when I had 3 pipes, and I wanted to add to my collection, just to have some pipes on hand that I could give away to friends who came over, and wanted to try Pipe smoking.

    That one may smoke like a regular pipe. But I think I’m done with novelties.

    Ruined a Perfectly Good Bowl of Tobacco in This Failed Design

    At first glance I thought. Brilliant design. but after one smoke I see so many flaws. I have been smoking some English Oriental all week. In various pipes. And it has been bliss. so today I thought, let’s try that Bartlett that has been sitting there for months. I read a bunched. Then I...

    Rotation Routine

    I have a very methodical way I go about this. Early in the morning, I start brewing the coffee and I go to my tobacco bar. I carefully select my morning blend. Select a pipe and fill up the bowl. I then pour the coffee and enjoy my morning pipe. I usually don’t smoke during the day unless I’m...

    Evil Lakeland Essence

    So I ordered some GH & Co. Balkan Mixture - Thinking, its balkan. should be pretty good. I looked at the tobaccoreviews site and it said no flavors added. So today, I tried my first bowl of it. why in God's name would someone add soap/perfume flavor to amazing Latakia/Oriental/Virginia...

    Is There A Baseline?

    This is an interesting topic. I appreciate the scientific method. Understand all the components and then you can derive conclusions on a blend based on your affinity, or lack there of, for its components. But do we really do that for food, and does it work? here is a perfect example. Do you...

    "It smells like cow, sheep and horse piss combined. And I'm going to put it in my pipe and smoke it." this is outstanding!

    Burns At The Center Only

    I paid attention and you guys are absolutely spot on. A lot of folks said a venter burn draws the flavor from the surrounding tobacco by heating it, and it makes sense. Especially with aromatics, a center burn is very flavorful. When I push the unburied side tobacco to the middle, and relight...

    Burns At The Center Only

    Sorry. I meant charred

    Burns At The Center Only

    I do this too. But I do end up with Jared tobacco in the draw hope, so it either blocks the draw or I end up with some charred tobacco bits in my filter or mouth (if it isn’t a filtered pipe)

    thank you for all the responses.. much appreciated.

    Burns At The Center Only

    Greetings, so I have found that on most my pipes, the burn goes down the center and leaves about 60-70% of the tobacco around the perimeter of the bowl I burned. what is the secret to getting a uniform burn that is bowl wide?

    Yup. I got the same. Tried calling. Went to voicemail. looks like there is no one manning the store.

    Does Anyone Shred Their Tobacco?

    Thank you for the answers. I recently tried Tabac Manil Robin and was amazed at how well it burned and required no relights. I started thinking why not do this to all tobacco. It is cut very finely and almost fees like cotton.
