    Post Pipe Rituals - Stretching Out the Bliss

    Just curious if anyone has any post smoke rituals beyond basic pipe maintenance (or the lack there of)? Myself, I like to try to enjoy the lingering flavors left on the palate afterwards, reminiscing on the ghost of the pipe just past. One way I do this is chewing a piece of cinnamon gum (which...
