Thank you for the kind words. Jonathan is terrific and I love his content! I hope I'm able to tolerate the DLNR a bit better going forward because the aromas are amazing! Cheers, Andy.
Thanks mate, a very informative narrative. I'm just back into pipes and the wonders of great tobacco after a break of 30 years so your experience and insights certainly gel with me!
30 years!?! Wow, that is a long break. Welcome back to the leaf. I'm glad you're able to gain something from my content. My intent was to start a channel so that newer smokers like myself have a frame of reference for what they are experiencing. Obviously, every journey is different, but I think it is helpful to have someone that is more or less around the same experience level to bounce ideas off of and compare notes with. Thanks for stopping by and saying hello. I hope to see you around. Cheers, Andy.
Good Afternoon 😊 Awesome shout out to Jonathan 📣 We need Smell o Vision 😂 Appreciate the review and sharing your thoughts on the blend 👍🏼 Have a wonderfu l🇺🇸 Memorial day ❤ Greetings From South Africa 🇿🇦
Thank you my friend, as always, for your comment. DLNR is a terrific tobacco! I hope I'm able to tolerate it better in the future. Jonathan is terrific and I love his content. I hope you have a wonderful week. Cheers, Andy.
Some of the lapel mics off of Amazon are quite affordable and work pretty well. I really appreciate the depth of the review man. Once again just fantastic
I've been looking at those. I might get a cheap one to start with and see if that helps. Thanks for the suggestion and your kind words. It is much appreciated as always. Cheers, Andy.
Nice - Kilkerran 8 and Caldonia. I'm 1 month into pipes, after a couple of years with cigars. Roma 673KS arriving in the mail today. Great review! Favs so far... Mac Baren Scottish Blend (2022), Capstan Gold (2024) and Latakia Flake (2022).
Always nice to meet someone that knows their scotch! I'm about 3 weeks into smoking a pipe after 15 years with cigars. It's such a great hobby. You are going to love that 673KS. It's my best smoking pipe so far, very dependable, and forgiving for a noob like me, haha. Haven't yet tried any of those blends, but I do have the Capstan Gold and will be reviewing it very soon. It's great to virtually meet you. Thanks for stopping by and saying hello. Cheers, Andy.
Been looking into getting some of those Navy rolls! Sealed the deal for me. PiperX1X is a top gent and one of my favourite YTPC members! Thanks for another great video Andy! Have a great week and stay smokey mate 😎🤙
Thanks for the kind words mate. Mr. Jonathan is terrific! I get excited every time I see that he has a new video posted. You will not regret getting this tin. I'm hoping after some time in the jar I'll be able to tolerate it better. Also, I didn't realize I wasn't subscribed to your channel. That has been corrected! I'm looking forward to watching all of your videos. Take care. Andy.
@@Piper_Andy Knott’s and pipes is one I look forward to seeing new videos pop up as well. Great to find ones we can enjoy, relate to and learn from! And if it is something in addition to pipes, like encouraging kindness, wonderful! (Both PiperX1X and Knott’sandPipes)
It really is amazing! I loved them if you couldn't tell from the video. I think I'm just prone to tongue bite because I get it a lot. Even from blends without a lot of Virginia. My mouth chemistry just doesn't take the pipe tobacco smoke well. I'm hoping that will change as I get more experience because I really love it. Thank you for your comment. I hope to see you around. Cheers, Andy.
@@Piper_Andy Andy, try a tobacco with a heavy burley base and no flavour. Maybe English or oriental blends. Keep your cadence slow. Use a 9 mm filter pipe. Make certain your tobacco is not moist. No aromatics. All that 16:42 should reduce tongue bite. Also keep a glass of water handy to swig if you get any hint of bite. Use a long stem filter pipe with a thin bowl, and pay care that the bowl doesn’t get super hot. Best of luck.
Hey fella thanks for such an amazing shoutout, very much appreciated fella. I have a tin of this but I’m still yet to crack the tin. Great review, I’ll compare your thoughts when I eventually open it. Have a great Memorial Day and have a great week.
I appreciate the kind words Jonathan. De Luxe Navy Rolls is a high quality tobacco no doubt, but I'm afraid it just doesn't agree with my mouth chemistry right now. I hope that changes in the future because this could end up being a favorite of mine. I'll be very interested to hear your thoughts on it. Have a great week! Andy
I really love this one. Top three so far for sure. I just hope that I can figure out how to smoke it without the bite. You are the first to recommend dark chocolate, but someone did mention a hard toffee candy. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll make sure to have some on hand next time I try this. Cheers, Andy.
I love them things. Deluxe navy rolls are the bomb. I like to take them and put them in a jar and come back to them about a month later, for some reason it seems to improve them. I always smoke 9mm filter pipes,but even if I didn't, those rolls wouldn't bother me
I'm doing exactly that. Letting them chill in a jar for a month or so and then see how they do. I've had many people recommend a filter for my pipe. Definitely going to be giving that a try. Thanks for the comment and recommendation. Hope to see you around. Cheers, Andy
Hiyas Andy, A thoughtful and thorough review of Peterson's De Luxe Navy Rolls. As an interesting comparison of styles/components, Escudo would a blend to consider trying as well. Subtle differences, both are tasty VaPers. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on R. McConnel Scottish Flake. KPO, Gary
Thank you Gary. That is high praise coming from you. I do have a tin of Escudo and perhaps I will review that one after Scottish Cake. Thanks for the suggestion. I hope you have a terrific Memorial Day holiday and a great week. Cheers, Andy.
Yeah boy the tongue bite is no fun. Might try it in a different pipe. I am going through the different Peterson blends. Haven't done the Navy roll yet. I have smoked it a few times just haven't done a video on it. Good a good day
Hey! Thanks for stopping by and saying hello. I think I may need to take some time off of smoking to give my palate a break. My tongue is in rough shape at the moment. The Navy Rolls are awesome! I highly recommend them. Well worth the bite it gave me. I look forward to your video when you make it. Have a great rest of the week. Cheers, Andy.
Thank you for stopping by and saying hello. It really is a wonderful tobacco. I hope that I'm able to smoke it in the future without getting bite because it's delightful. Cheers, Andy.
Another great video Andy, really enjoying your channel! Yea the bite is a bugger😩 I absolutely hate the recovery period. It mostly sneaks up on me when trying new blends. During the smoke I'm thinking its going nicely, then afterwards I'm like, shit it got me! 😂 See ya on the next one 😊
Yes! That's exactly how it goes. I don't realize until after that I've been bit. I try to take it easy for a day or two, but it's hard because there are so many tobaccos still to try. Thanks for the kind words. Cheers, Andy.
I am new to pipe smoking (3 months). And am watching you for the first time today. I am taking pipper XlX's recommendation. Have you tried the Peter Stokkebye Luxery Bullseye? I got no tongue bite. If you have not it is a great tobacco. Just an FYI. Have a great day and God Bless.
Not yet, but I have some ordered! It should be here sometime this week. I'm excited to give it a try and review it. I also grabbed a few other goodies that I will no doubt share in a YABO video. Jonathan at Piperx1x is such a great guy. Thanks for saying hello and for the recommendation. Cheers, Andy.
I wonder if pH was a factor in the tongue bite you experienced. In smokeless tobacco, it is normal for recipes to include an alkalizer (something that raises pH) to free up the nicotine and make it more readily absorbed by the body. If you overdo it though, you can quite easily end up with caustic levels of alkalinity.
I've been starting to think that myself. I'm experimenting with some different kind of pipes, prep styles, and packing density. I'm hoping it's just my inexperience and not a broader issue with my mouth chemistry. After my week off from smoking, I'm going to try to get it dialed in a little better. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I hope to see you around. Cheers, Andy.
👍Great review Andy and Johnathon is fantastic! Have you tried using a filter? Maybe it would temp help while tongue healing. Ive used them a few occasions but other wise I usually don’t. Have a great week and Happy Memorial Day!😊
Yes, Jonathan is amazing, and I really like his videos. I've not yet tried a filter. Perhaps I should give it a try just to mix things up. In fact, I will do that today. Thanks for the idea! Happy Memorial Day to you also. Hope you have a great week. Cheers, Andy.
I like to dry this out much more than other smokes. 10 seconds in the microwave is perfect. I've never had tongue bite from this blend. You might have under packed the bottom of the bowl. I only get bit when I do that.
That's a very good possibility. I've got a few things I'm going to try for next time to try to alleviate the bite. Thanks for stopping by and for your comment. Cheers, Andy.
Multiple people have recommend that I use a filter to help with the bite, so I'm definitely going to give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion and kind words. Cheers, Andy.
@@Piper_Andy A rug won't be enough Andy. You need some the material used in recording studios that is applied to the walls. Your room is very live and you have a major echo.
@@Piper_Andy hopefully it will change so that you can enjoy it. I’m still having a lot of frustration with being able to enjoy blends. When I smell the tobacco, it is so inviting and wonderful. Then when I smoke it, I’m disappointed. I’m trying to do all the right things to detect flavors, but maybe it’s just going to take some time. I hope you have a great day as well!
You will get there, it just takes time, practice, and patience. Not that I'm in any position to give advice, but I would just focus on trying to get a good smoking experience first, then start flavor chasing/hunting second. The smell in the tin is usually going to be different than the smell of the smoke. Also, the quality of the tobacco matters a lot. You're not going to get too much other than the artificial topping flavors from aromatics for the most part. Hang in there and you will start picking it up. One thing this hobby has taught me is that there is no substitute for or shortcut to experience. Cheers, Andy.
@@Piper_Andy thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement! I’m kind of beating myself up over not being able to ‘do it right’. I’m impatient! I will continue…
It is a hobby that rewards patience. Just this morning I had two bad experiences. I smoked two different blends in two different pipes and all I was getting was hot air. I think I packed them incorrectly and it lead to burn issues. Now my tongue is a bit scorched and I'll have to wait until tomorrow to try again. Practice makes perfect though. Take care.
Thanks for the video. Nice shoutout to Jonathan. Very good presentation. I can smell the raisin brand.
Thinking of you Gary, thoughts and prayers from here my friend.

My experience is that any tobacco smoked for 2,5 hrs or let’s say 2-3 bowl smoked in chain would give a sour throat and tongue bite.
Yes! I've learned that just because you can fit that much tobacco in the bowl, doesn't mean you should. Thanks for your comment. Cheers, Andy.

Aged Peterson Navy Rolls are amazing. I've never had tongue bite. Crazy. If you're ever worried about tongue bite use a 9mm filter

I had a friend in Scotland that I sent some navy rolls, plus some Peterson Irish Slice. He loved it
I can see why! These Navy Rolls are terrific. Really enjoying the quality of tobacco. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Cheers.
Here at 180 subs you going places! You are the true Yeast Lord!
Thank you for the kind words. I have been blown away by all the support. Hope you have a great day. Cheers, Andy.
Good to see you enjoying some classic blends. Has anyone recommended a bit of dark chocolate for tongue bite? Soothes the tongue and mouth lining.

P Stokkebye just as good and you save a few bucks
Also. A fresh tin of Peterson NFs are like 1-2 year aged escudo. Even in color relation.

It was Tupperware!

But smell can be used as a noun or a verb. ❤
