I smoke a pipe. I'm a 25 year old student at uni, and I smoke it maybe once or twice a week. Had it for over a year now.

I find it to be much, much more potent than your normal cigarette delivery method of nicotine and it really mellows me right out. There are a vast amount of different types of pipe tobacco out there, but at the moment I'm smoking 'Erinmore Flake' which is a flake cut tobacco. It has been cased with an apricot flavour. Casing loosely is where they blend in a particular flavour (fruit/floral) onto the tobacco at the end of the refinement process. It's not deep enough to affect the taste much but it does give it a smell in the tin. The actual tobacco is a mostly Burley/Virginian blend.

You can see a review of Erinmore Flake here: http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend_detail.cfm?ALPHA=E&TID=1126

One bowl lasts around an hour and you can let it go out and relight it as you like. The more the tobacco sits around the drier it gets, which usually tastes better but will burn hotter and can give a worse smoke. It's about finding a balance. When you first light fresh pipe tobacco up it's usually a bit damp, takes awhile for it to get going.

There's a whole art-form in packing the tobacco into the pipe properly as well. I have a pipe tool which is a 3 pronged tool which has a tamper, reamer and spoon attached.

I have brought out the pipe at a few house parties and it always gets comments. It's really quite awesome. After smoking pipe tobacco normal cigarette tobacco tastes really artificial.

Hey this reminds me I need to buy a tobacco pouch to carry it around properly in. :D

Edit: Oh I should totally add that you do not inhale pipe tobacco into your lungs (same with cigars). You take a long, slow draw; hold the smoke in your mouth region for a few seconds then exhale it. The nicotine is absorbed through the mucous membranes in your mouth.

I don't know whether to laugh at you, or feel sorry for you.

Are you really saying you took nicotine gum to get a slightly better performance in some ladder matches? You do realise this is a game right?



Which some people take serious enough to travel across the world and compete for thousands of dollars for, and this person might want to be one of them.

Perhaps you're forgetting what website you're on?


I'm not at all, but it's laughable that you think it's okay to compete on the battle.net ladder, and take nicotine gum as a stimulant. Whatever you say, this guy is willing to take a highly addictive substance on the off chance that it might improve his ladder results, but hey, it's Starcraft, who cares!!

Fair enough if he was playing for thousands of dollars, and took some sort of energy stimulant, I can see the idea behind that.

my GF smokes. She shows no signs of slowing down on her smoking, but whatever it seems like it's common in Korea. Everywhere I go I see Korean women/men smoking so I guess it was just natural for her to eventually pick it up.

Because of her I occasionally smoke. When I do smoke I smoke like menthols, mainly Newport cigarettes. That's only when I'm drunk in a club or something other than that I don't smoke. So I'm not addicted. Woot!!!

I've been a pack a day smoker for the last year. I went from Marlboro Menthol Smoothes to Marlboro Menthol Lights to Parliament Lights back to Marlboro Menthol Lights. My dad has been smoking for 30+ years and has been trying to quit off and on for the last 10. He bought both of us E-cigarettes and I can tell you they are amazing. I haven't smoked a real cigarette in a week and I don't think I'll ever go back.

Bali Shag was my go-to for a bit, though generally for spliffing. I found that I liked Norwegian Shag a bit better though. You might want to check it out.

I've been smoking the Peter Stokkebye stuff for a while now, tried all 6-7 of them, thinking I enjoy Amsterdam Shag the best because I like a moister rolling tobacco. Great choice, though .

so true. and the situation is even more ridiculous in Cali where I live. Here there's places where if a police officer saw me smoking a cigarette, I'd put it out and say "i swear it was just a joint officer."

I used to smoke cigarillos, especially those vanilla cigarillo because chick love the smell :
[image loading]
I killed some kids with my smoke it seems. I lost the habit, still buying some from time to time.

I also smoked pipe during a period of time, but I stopped because my wife disliked the smell / taste in my mouth.

So I finally started to smoke cigarets, lucky strike to be precise, but I'm a casual (I'm actually smoking those cigaret because my wife told me I was sexy with it).

Usually I'm smoking Lucky Strikes, just because it's easier to grab a quick cloud on the way.

But when I'm at home or discussing some problems with people at the univ, have time to chill out etc. I reach for my sturdy pipe and the tobacco I'm currently testing out (it's expensive as hell but also very good, with a delicate plum taste/aroma).

Anyway, pipe is king if you want to smoke casually or would like to enjoy a leisurely slow evening.
Time is precious. Waste it wisely.
