long time lurking, first time posting, just thought i would say hello.
I've been smoking pipes for a few months now, it was rough starting out, lots of tongue bite, wasted money and frustration but, after sticking to it and finding some great resources on this site and youtube( thanks muttonchop piper) i can now say i finally know how to smoke a pipe and actually enjoy it.
so far the rewards have far outweighed the frustrations and I've reached a new level of enjoyment, relaxation and contemplation in my life.
as recommended i started out with aromatics but was left unfulfilled, sure they smell nice but i don't enjoy them. once i ventured into english and va/pers my world opened up and i look forward to many years of smoking enjoyment.
favorite blends include Stokkebyes' luxury bullseye, arango bulkan supreme, and frog morton cellar.
