[QUOTE="huffelpuff, post: 539332, member: 2140"] Any of the 3 Nuns blends are going to be superior tobaccos. Perhaps as suggested a cheaper blend would be in order while you learn how to smoke a pipe. It does seem a shame to waste expensive tobacco until you've gotten the hang of smoking. However if you enjoyed the flavor and don't mind paying for better tobacco then go for it. Flavors will come to you but when you start out don't expect to be able to pick out much more than "I liked that" or "I didn't like that" it takes a long time to figure out what you're tasting. Even experienced smokes can tell you they have to smoke at least a full tin to be able to pick up the flavors that are there and its not unusual to need to smoke 3-4 or more tins to get everything the blend has to offer. Things like temperature, humidity, even what you've eaten or had to drink can change what you taste or think you taste. Keep at it and you will be rewarded. Jim [/QUOTE]
