The Best 'No-Bite' Pipe Tobacco?

[dispatch]

From experience, what would you consider to be the best no-bite pipe tobacco there is?

 

[The Libertine]

Any burley

 

[prairiedruid]

Best of the Rest English......load, smoke, repeat

 

[Briarcutter]

Tooooooo subjective.....You may hate my choice. Depends how long someone has been smoking a pipe. Many people really enjoy half and half, I like the taste but that one seems to always bite and I've been smoking a pipe for decades.

 

[cachimbosergipano]

Virginias for me.

Lane Burley Light Without Bite is pretty innocuous if you can tolerate it's very mildly aromatics nature.

 

[Philosophical Smoke]

I think after years of smoking you have very few that bite you anymore...just comes with experience. I smoke Presbyterian a lot and it's never bit me.

Now if you're talking a tobacco that doesn't seem to bite you no matter if you smoke it like a freight train, Carter Hall comes to mind. YMMV

Lane has a tobacco I had for the first time last night literally called burley without a bite. It has a surprisingly low score on TR for how inoffensive it is. Its the definition of an all day smoke: light, pleasant, slightly sweet. Also drier tobacco bites me a lot less.

I’ve been smoking a lot of C&D Winchester recently. I tend to pull pretty hard, but I don’t get any bite whatsoever out of it. It’s good stuff!

Macbaren Navy Flake

There’s no one answer to this question. A blend will bite one person and not another.
I enjoy matured red Virginias and others experience a lot of pain with them. Same goes for burley blends.

Right now I’m enjoying some SWRA, mellow nutty and flavorful.
And I enjoy McClelland 40th.

It just depends on how a blend hits you.

 

[Richmond B. Funkenhouser]

Dry pipe tobacco.

No bite at all?
Straight black cavendish
You might die of boredom, but it won’t bite.
Otherwise you are bound to your mouth chemistry. I burn with Virginias. I’ve learned to smoke slowly enough that I can enjoy them, but it takes work. I can smoke the harshest Burley with much less care. Other folks are exactly the opposite.

Most good English blends are bite free.

 

[smudgersmissingleg]

I've always found Gawith blends never bite me.

What is it that they do or don't do to the tobacco that keeps out the bite?

It's more about your body chemistry and/or smoking technique. Some have issues with certain tobacco while some can smoke whatever they want.

Try ennerdale flake. A no bite marvel
