How to get started smoking pipes

So far I like it. Used the 3 step load process and (excuse the cigar think) the draw felt a little/lot too open. I went ahead and lighted it, but I have tamped it down twice with my finger and it's much better. I have never been very good at describing flavors, but it's very mild with a slight cherry taste. I guess I should have more pressure when I loaded it and do you pretty much have to relight it after tamping it down?
