Hello everyone, just wanted to say hi, I'm new to the forum and new to pipe smoking. As many here, I went to pipe smoking from been a cigarette smoker for many years, I was diagnosed with plurisy and cigarettes were causing me severe chest pains, therefore I tried the pipe smoking. I have come to really enjoy pipe smoking even after bad tongue bite and some tongue burns that occured by smoking a to wet of tobacco. As a later learned I wasn't smoking the tobacco I was inhaling vapor. Painful, yet I have not stopped with my pipes. I began on the 11 of this month after several trials and errors I think I have gotten the hank of it. Though I read that some pipe smoking vets still have a bad pipe here and there.
Now, I am learning about tobaccos and so far its a bit difficult as where I live there are limited of places to buy the tobacco. I usually go to one smoke shop that does sell pipe tobacco but nothing like big brand names. They sell everything by bulk. So, wanted to get everyone's opinion on what are good tobaccos, from the english blends, Va blends, aromatics, etc. Any help would be very helpful, thank you all ahead of time.
