    General Help With a Specific Pipe

    That's really unfortunate, it might just not be for me, I thought it might be a bit more mellow, but I can't get over the smell of smoke and ash, burning tobacco.. if I force myself to like it I might end up hating it. Or maybe try a very basic tobacco

    I guess I'll just have to head to the tobacco shop and get a basic tobacco then, maybe it doesn't taste as bad as I think it will! Thanks for the insight

    Isn't latakia extremely smoky and harsh?

    I guess I will have to try just plain tobacco in that case, I appreciate your reply!

    I live in Germany, and the tobaccos were like a moist brick when I opened the pouch, quite a bit of moisture in them, hence why I'm drying them now. For me, abysmal taste, but other people loved the smell, at least something positive.

    Also a very important thing I forgot to mention, this pipe does NOT have cake, almost none, a very thin black coating, on some spots you can see through and look at the briar. This also might be my problem. I also went ahead and cleaned it with salt and spirit, got some gunk out as well.

    It's a briar pipe from "Silver Match" made in the UK, made to smoke without a filter, but a 4mm one fits inside, and so I'm using those. I have both of those Tobaccos spread out on baking sheets drying in the kitchen, they're losing moisture quite quickly now. I'll still look into a cob...

    Well thank you very much for the advice, would you say that non aromatic tobacco has a harsh taste? That's what I'm afraid of, I quite like the idea of smoking a sweet tobacco.. but I think unless I dry the entire package overnight I won't get an ember going any time soon.

    Well, you're right. I'm really not a fan of normal tobacco taste, since I am guessing that it's similar to cigarettes, and if they taste how they smell, I definitely want to stay away from that. My grandfather used to smoke aromatic tobacco and it always smelled amazing, so I thought it would...

    Hello, I recently bought a used Chimney pipe, I have never smoked anything before. I bought all the needed utensils, and I bought 2 Aromatic tobaccos. White Roses from Danske Club. I watched tons of tutorials on how to light and tamp, and draw, everything there is to be watched. I know...
