Default Re: First pipe

I tried again tonight with more of the 5 star blend. This time I packed the bowl more tightly and to just below the rim and had much better luck. I like the flavor of the blend and think I might lean towards a more natural or slight aromatic. I think I may try and blend some of the Virginia and cavendish and see what that produces.

I seem to have to really puff on it several times to get any decent volume of smoke. I also noticed its still making that hissing noise when I take draws, but maybe that's just how it's supposed to sound. Also, it started gurgling. I wonder if maybe the tobacco is too moist. Either way, it's been enjoyable! I'm already eyeballing my next pipe!

Thanks again for your replies.
