Have You Ever Had One Of Those Pipe Smoking Days Where... you just can't catch the flavor from your tobacco?

I used to attribute this to sinuses; and often on those days, after a hot, steamy shower - and clearing my sinuses - the effect would be alleviated. However, today isn't that day, as nothing seems to be working.

Has this ever happened to you? What's your go-to remedy; if any? - Sherm Natman

clean your pipes more. Seriously. I tend to be some what lax about cleaning my pipes and one of them didn't sour it kind of went flat. Cleaned out the whole thing and gosh darn it the flavor popped so much. And I know you said they call you dirty pipes or something like that. So get some swabs and get to work I bet you'll notice a much sharper and well defined flavor.

Drink a gallon of absinthe, smoke PCP, and start yodeling naked outside during an electrical storm. I know it sounds peculiar, but it works every time...I've heard.
Why must you keep trying to get everyone in on the Tuesday ritual? They don't need it. I told you what's the point of a club if you try to get everyone to join!

I usually wait a few days before smoking another bowl especially if my allergies are acting up.

Buzzing brass increases the smell and sense of taste. A mouthpiece would suffice but that is perhaps more boring. Both may however also help keeping social distance.
