>>2382391I'm this retard.
Pipe arrived (pic related), nice and small. As anons predicted, it was difficult for me to light properly and keep going but once I got the hang of it, I enjoyed a nice 5-10 minutes of puffing. I was smoking some Ashton "Guilty Pleasure" and other than a bit of bite when I forgot it was a tiny pipe and not a cigar, it was pretty nice. Also, Smoke-king, where I got this and the tobacco from, gave me a cheeky little mint chocolate. Very nice.
Anyway anons, any other advice to give? Anything I should keep in mind? I was going to get a nice entry briar, but was wondering if the stem shape matters? I know a shorter stem gives a hotter smoke, but is the actual shape just aesthetic? How about bowl shapes? Cheers.
