Been following him on Instagram for a while now and like the looks of his work. He claims to use non standard methods to create a cooler smoke and I'm curious how it winds up smoking for you
First smoke tonight with Mississippi river. Easily the most open draw of the few pipes i have and it was indeed cool smoke but i think i ran the bowl a bit hot hurrying for dinner. Still, was very forgiving and easy. Light as a feather, good size and i cant wait to get a bit of cake built up in it.
For me it was very different in my limited experience but smoked very well with one relight about midbowl 25 minutes in.

I will be keeping an eye on his page. I'm very prone to bite and I think his design may help. Thank you for the input!

I wasn't really sure at first but, this one ended up with FCV2, FCV3, Prilep, waved a little Lat97 over it, bound in Crio98S, wrapped in Corojowrpp.

Vincent Manil is this dude. (tabac-semois.com)
here's an article.

here is what I meant by the packaging, now to find some :D

Semois is very very tasty. Way more complex than your typical burley. Would definitely like to try the regular as well as what Marc has come up with. Sounds like I need to start playing with more whole pipe tobacco to make my own.
