Stonehenge Flake: My Favorite Dissapointment

[Waning Embers]

in my experience ghosting is a myth

Smoke Crooner or another deertongue blend in a pipe. It never comes out.

 

[pipeman7]

Yea agreed but that's a different ingredient all together

 

[Waning Embers]

You just said ghosting is a myth.

You just said ghosting is a myth.

Have you ever seen a ghost?

 

[pipeman7]

Yea but deer tongue isn't tobacco

 

[Waning Embers]

Neither are the flavoring agents used in Lakelands or the smoke used to flavor Latakia.

 

[Waning Embers]

Have you ever seen a ghost?

Yep, grew some this year.

 

[pipeman7]

Neither are the flavoring agents used in Lakelands or the smoke used to flavor Latakia.

true yes but those are oils the deertongue in crooner is actually plant matter, and a significant percentage of the blend

 

[Waning Embers]

Very little deetongue is used in blends, or it would overpower everything else.

 

[pipeman7]

You used crooner as an example

 

[Waning Embers]

Yep, and not a high percentage in it. Looking at a jar of it right now.

 

[Waning Embers]

Opened the jar, and only two flecks of deetongue on top. It's used sparingly so as to not sublimate the flavor of the tobacco.

 

[pipeman7]

hey what'd you do take out all the deer tongue and eat it there, bambi?

 

[Waning Embers]

Nope, just hasn't been much in it since I've been buying it, Thumper.

 

[pipeman7]

I hate that stuff. smokes like grape nuts. my friend said it smelled amazing

 

[Waning Embers]

Have to smoke it really slow. It always gave me an apple/cinnamon sort of thing.

 

[woodsroad]

So tell me about the myth of estate pipes being intractably infused with 1Q and Lakeland.

 

[cosmicfolklore]

Woods, those pipes look more like something else when horribly wrong, than just a ghost. Ha ha. But yes, ghosting is real. But, mostly it takes more than just a few bowls of something to really set a ghost in. And, if you really hated the scent of something, you probably don't want to taste even a hint of it in the next few pipefulls of a blend you do like. So, some pipes just get crushed under a boot heal. ::
