    Cleaning and resting

    I smoke a pipe then I clean the piss out of it after one bowl, then I let it rest a couple of days. I expect my tobacco to taste as great as it can and a clean pipe helps in my goal.

    Esotericapers

    Since I don't care about Esoterica, this has nothing to do with me. I can tell you of a certain circumstance. Back in the 80's my General sales manager would make me(sales manager) order all the cars and trucks. He knew I did it better than him. We always ran with at least 500 cars and trucks...

    World Cup 2022 ⚽🏆

    Until they figure out how to throw a 60 yard touchdown they will always be named soccer. Football is for men, soccer is for floppers, they make me want to puke.

    Big Dollar Pipes vs Lower Priced Pipes

    No worries, I didn't think you were considering Bones pipes as artisan. They definitely serve a purpose , you can beat the hell out of them and still get a decent smoke.

    Do you prefer the 1st or 2nd half of bowl better?

    I enjoy them equally. I smoke the first half which tastes great, Then around the half way point I will gently stir the ash, dump it, scrape the sides of the walls and re tamp and then finish the last half of the bowl. The lower I go the more intense the flavors get and I enjoy those just as well.
