Vitamin N Uptake and Cold Weather

[gamzultovah]

Something I’ve always noticed in my 20+ years of pipe smoking is how much more quickly my body uptakes nicotine in colder weather. I’m sitting on the front porch in Decatur, Georgia (42 degrees) smoking some HH Pure Virginia and within the first few puffs I’m feeling that swoony, meditative vitamin N feeling. Being from Florida, we get these cooler days very rarely. What about you? Do you notice any change in weather and nicotine uptake?

I don't personally experience any perceived changes based on temperature. However, my brain requires frequent doses of nicotine throughout the day so nicotine uptake is a welcome thing.

Same boat as blackpowder. I've taken in nicotine 24 hours a day for nearly 35 years so if there's a difference in intake of nicotine due to temperature, I've never noticed it.

Ditto here, though 24 hour smoking has thus far eluded me ( much as I've tried). What's your intake method, @Chasing Embers ?

Typically smoke during my awake time and Kodiak in my jaw while I sleep, usually only 3-4 hours.

I've tried that, but too messy for me. I generally concede to nicotine gum. I admire your skill!
