What's in your bowl today

Speaking of burley..... CH in my new Phil Rivara and now Tilbury in an old Jake Hackert

Let's see 10 Russians in a cob

I haven't smoked hardley anything in a week, all my Latakia blends are tasting a little off right now

Straight burley doesn't ghost. It will even remove a ghost. If it's a topped burley then yes it will ghost. A lot of B&M will top the burley and make it like a sweet or vanilla. I break my pipes in with CH. CH has a little topping in my opinion but it builds great cake and will not ghost. Just my experience. But I'm also a burley nut.

Burley nut - check

Someone light up a bowl for me. I need to live vicariously through someone else tonight. I only ask that you let me know what you chose and how it is/was.

Had some dark star from 2011 on the way home from work tonight. Liked it so much I had to have another bowl when I got home.

Had a cob or two of my favorite, Ennerdale Flake, this morning while running errands.

Intriguing pipe, cgraunke!

Smoking one of the samples Javelin377 sent me a while back in a meer. Very smooth tasty English. Not a lat bomb like most of the Englishes on my shelf.

What does "ghost a pipe" mean?

What does "ghost a pipe" mean?

It's when you smoke a certain type of tobacco that has very strong flavors in it and it leaves behind a certain note of character when you smoke it again. Like if you smoked a strong cherry aro and many times after you smoke an English but you can still taste the cherry.

Just lit a bowl of PA in a cob to smoke while I go out to the garage to polish some estates.

Thanks hoshy!
So is it mostly just aro's that do that? If so i have no worries then.

Nope, anything that has a very pronounced character to it. That is why some guys have pipes for different blends. I like to mix it up a bit though, it doesn't bother me to much.

I have yet to have any tobacco seriously ghost a pipe. Maybe just remnants of flavor (Latakia) for a bowl or two. The only exception just to be safe is I have a cob dedicated to aromatics. I rarely smoke aros so would not be pleased if one of my briars developed a nontobacco flavor.
