I am relatively new to pipe smoking (or any form of smoking for that matter)..off and on for a few years. The past few months have been so stressful in many ways and the Zen momments that I have w my pipe is much needed. Smoking my pipe marks the ending of WFH and the start of being a family man.
When I was a young boy growing up in Vietnam, I remember enjoying being around my grandfather when he smoked his pipe. I enjoyed the rituals of smoking and the care that he gave his pipe. The pipe had a white dot on the stem. Because of these vivid memories of my grandfather, it always feel special for me to smoke a Dunhill pipe.
As a new smoker, I have only smoked aromatics (fav Blue Note). I tried my father's latakia and it was way to "strong" for me. My goal is to work my way towards the English blends eventually.
That's it about me for now. I appreciate this community and look forward to learning from and connecting with you all.
