As an ex pipe smoker I had to decide whether I should watch your new channel. When you mentioned my mix 965 I had a Proustian flash trigger and my mouth watered even while vaping a delicious NET😅. Seeing the mason jars, all the delicious tobacco flakes mixed therein, wow ! I’m holding steady and will continue and enjoy your top notch reviews and explanations. Pro tip for pipe smokers on the go: use a wine cork in the bowl (can cut in half to make shorter) for putting in one’s pocket
@JDJ473. I giggled reading your 965 reaction😁 Seriously though, vaping NETs is my salvation for 99% of the time as you know watching my reviews at NET Vaper channel, so carry on vaping delicious NETs and you are welcome to watch my pipe & tobacco reviews just for content while vaping a similar blend or what ever blend that keeps you satisfied. I am perfectly ok with it if you are 😊 Oh forgot to ask what purpose does the wine cork serve when inserted in the bowl is it for absorbing moisture
@@TheVapingPiper yep, puts out the ash and keeps your pockets clean as well. Our grandfathers used their thumb or index finger. My how fancy we’ve become 😀
bravo Nathan 👏this video is what any tobacco aficionado would approve.👍 Detailed and well explained. I hope finally we can expect some pipe blends in your upcoming videos 😁 looking forward. Enjoy your weekend
Yes Gary upcoming. I wanted to cover the basics first so any new pipe smoker can educate himself on the subject first then the enjoyment of pipe smoking is on higher level. Exactly the way I followed when first picking up this enjoyable & relaxing hobby.
Your enthusiasm for this subject is infectious it’s detailed and well explained and will be helpful to a lot of new pipe smokers as well as seasoned ones keep up the good work
Good morning, great video, I can watch the explanation of leaf videos day in day out, such a learning experience helping the palette and the brain to constantly learn, as pipe smokers it’s what we’re always looking for and that amazing blend
So do I Bob😊 I love anything to do with tobacco. It is one of those relaxing & enjoyable hobbies that we never tire of and enjoy it immensely every time we light that pipe. Lucky us😀
I really like the plug and rope tobaccos, but also the flakes. I bought an old device on ebay that was specifically designed to cut these ropes and plugs. With that device it's a pure joy to cut these types of tobaccos, but you can easily do it with a sharp and thin bladed knife like an Opinel as well. There isn't a lot of options when it comes to rope tobacco anymore unfortunately, but there are quite a few plugs available from different manufacturers, at least here in Germany. And I've even heard that the biggest pipe tobacco importer here in Germany is about to import some very interesting hand crafted rope tobaccos from Brazil in the coming year or so. That will be a delight I'm sure.
Good Evening 😊 Awesome video👌🏽Thanks for sharing 👍🏼 With time and relaxing with a pipe , you will enjoy all the flavours 😋 Have a great weekend and Happy cool smokes 🌬💨💨 Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
Shag is more like roll your own tobacco used to make cigarettes. I prefer shag for smaller bowls like clay pipes and hookahs because its finer and drier. Great video Nathan.
Your comparison between sigarette smoking vs pipe smoking is very true. I gave up converting sigarette smokers to pipe smoking. They just don't seem to get it. No pipe gifts for them any more.
😀 i know what you mean Schalk, unless they try it they will find it hard to understand but once they smoked a pipe blend all falls into place. The only issue remaining is the nicotine addiction that takes time for a cigarette smoker’s mind to adjust to a much slower pace of nicotine delivery
For a time traveller, you’re travelling slow😂 yes I have hinted many times on my cravings for pipe tobacco last year and uploaded a video during October 2023 talking about my new channel. Link here th-cam.com/video/nBoI_r9XB-A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zZQ74W57t0bxBRcK Welcome to my new channel😊
😊 Say you add a Smokey sauce on your grilled steak perhaps the smokiness is quite evident but you will probably taste other flavours besides. That said some Latakia blends are more potent then others and some latakias have a musty & slightly spicy sweet note. All English / Balkan blends or Latakia blends have a Virginia that usually mellows the Latakia with a bright slightly citrus flavour so you can taste other nuances besides smokiness.
The boundaries between English, Balkan and Oriental are far from clear. My understanding is that English blends have absolutely no toppings and are comprised of Virginia, oriental, and Latikia. Orientals also have no toppings and are usually dominated by orientals. Scottish blends also have no toppings have a slight hint of Latikia. An example of a great Scottish is Pease’s Fillmore, which is predominately Virgina and Perique with a very slight hint of Latikia. But, again, the boundaries are very blurred.

Thank you for your informative feedback. That Brazilian rope tobacco does sound interesting although not really my kind of cut.
Outstanding content! Great information for the beginner and the seasoned pipe smoker. Just subscribed!

All blends with Latakia taste the same to me. Sort of like food with cilantro....all I taste is the cilantro.
