Irish Flake is the perfect autumn to winter smoke. I love it in October, on the cold dark nights. I sit outside listen to with the leaves rustling, and smoke a bowl, the nicotine warms me up too

I've not had this one yet. I tend to go for medium nic hits but I have been known to hit a bowl of glorious 1792 flake with a good dose of espresso. Maybe I should check this one out. Also I completely get the idea of how you do these "revisited" episodes. Makes perfect sense to me.

Glad you revisted Peterson Irish Flake. To me this is Peterson's best tobacco (not counting the Dunhill foster children). I'm glad you seemed to think they had not messed with the recipe. That anise does go into the background, perhaps numbing the mouth a tad like mentholatum. Yummy so good perhaps too good.

I love cigars, and lat bomb pipe toby, but with dark fired pipe toby I usually cut it with something else. Also I love Stumptown coffee! Cheers from Tampa.

So, I smoke it very rarely and after a very good meal! :D Thank you for your videos and I wish you the best! Kind regards from Montevideo, UY!

Sorry for the ignorance but can someone please explain what retrohaling is. Context: I've never really got the hand of pipesmoking despite doing it and enjoying it for 22 years. Thanks

@dannyhanke4338 4 жыл бұрын

Retrohailing is blowing the smoke out through your nose. You will taste different flavors. You retrohail naturally when you eat. Don’t believe me? That’s why you can’t taste food when you have a cold. Another way to think of it is to try “chewing” the smoke.

I can't stand the stuff either, i think it's the aniseed flavouring now blake is saying it, even though i love aniseed candy.

Daniel Starbuck give it a year in a mason jar, it still gives a big nic hit if you puff too fast but it does develop a creamy smooth taste.
