    No Taste

    Have you possibly been smoking too much? I find that if I over-do my smoking, I stop tasting the tobacco as well. If I leave it and don't smoke anything for a few days, the first bowl is delicious. Also ... are your pipes well-rested and well-cleaned? That really does make a difference.

    I Just had a Pipe-smoking Revelation ...

    Title edited. Capitals! I was browsing through this page as it's Saturday morning and just sipping some coffee.. https://www.alpascia.com/moments/en/detail/23/tips-for-new-pipe-smokers ... it's actually a site sponsor and I would highly recommend checking out their site if you have not...

    Tongue Bite Progress Update

    I will add to this thread - as a follow tongue-bite sufferer - that using a Peterson P-Lip pipe has made a huge difference. It hasn't fixed everything ... the top of my mouth gets irritated now ... but I don't get tongue bite at least when smoking through that pipe.

    Hello from Sweden, via Australia

    No ... I don't think I've ever tried pairing warm water with anything at all. Strange kiwis. ;) I'll give it a shot, thanks for the tip.

    Hello from Sweden, via Australia

    Funny and confusing and irrelevant fact … in Sweden they call anchovies (those salty, oily fish you put in pizza) “Sardeller” (like my profile pic) which translates to “sardines” and they call what-we-call “sardines” (the tinned fish you put on toast with vinegar) “anchovies”. has caused me to...

    Hello from Sweden, via Australia

    I thought I did put my location? Stockholm, Sweden in case there’s a misunderstanding.

    Hello from Sweden, via Australia

    Well it’s hardly a “visit” … or a least it’s a very long one. I live and work and pay taxes here now with a Swedish girl.

    Thanks for all the replies guys. I read each one word for word and have no real comment to make but I appreciate your time in replying. Lots of good knowledge.

    Hello from Sweden, via Australia

    Hahaha. Very funny. I love Australia (and the mighty Wallabies), but I love Sweden too. It's nice to travel.

    Cellaring tobacco - questions

    Hey guys, A few noob questions on storing tobacco: 1 - I've seen multiple times guys suggest to cellar your tobacco in a mason jar or whatever for a few weeks before smoking it. What's going on here? Hasn't the tobacco been "cellared" on the shelf in the tobacconist for probably a lot longer...

    Denicotea (denicool) - 9mm Filters - For Pipes?

    Done!
  13. Anchovies

    Hello from Sweden, via Australia

    Hello folks, I'm originally from The Hunter Valley, NSW, Australia but currently living and working in Stockholm, Sweden. I've tried smoking pipes on-and-off for the past ten-or-so years. Previously I was looking for a replacement for cigars (too expensive & too smelly) and now I'm looking for...

    Suggestions for English Blends

    I can't quite say for sure. I just find that I keep reaching for that for whatever reason. The first few bowls I smoked of it were transformative. I thought it was, by some way, the most delicious pipe tobacco I'd ever smoked. I thought I'd found something truly amazing. Unfortunately, for...

    Suggestions for English Blends

    I think that's about right in my opinion as well.

    Suggestions for English Blends

    Squadron Leader is worth a crack imo. I have a few English blends now I'm rotating, including Early Morning Pipe and Nightcap. But I keep going back to the Squadron Leader.

    Denicotea (denicool) - 9mm Filters - For Pipes?

    I bought them online, but I can't read the instructions (I bought them from Germany but don't speak German) ... and I'm a bit worried they maybe filters for something else (a vaporizer, cigarette holder or something, I dunno) and that if put one of these plastic-looking things in my pipe it will...

    Getting back into Pipes - my "Newbie Trial Selection"

    That’s pretty much the conclusion I came to in my other thread about Alcohol & tongue bite. I really hope I can find “a way” because I’ve invested a lot in this over the years. if it’s just my personal body chemistry then shit. What can I do? At least if it was heat bite I could learn to...

    Getting back into Pipes - my "Newbie Trial Selection"

    I wish I knew that before I bought a selection heavy on "Mac Bite". Haha. :) I just figured they were reputable so, meh. Can't be horrible.
