[QUOTE="sstodvictory, post: 85808, member: 948"] . I had never tried an Oom Paul before yesterday. I always figured they would gurgle and be difficult to clean. Because I'm a sucker for a Giubileo D'Oro if the price is right, I bought this yesterday along with the pictured Bird's Eye Flake. These and a book came together for my first smoke of the day. BTY, [u]babysinister[/u] and [u]PipedJimmy[/u], here's a salute to you. I have enjoyed St. Bruno Flake over the years. This is one of three dried up cans I must rehydrate to continue enjoying. Impressions of my first Oom Paul: 1) Had a great view of the char, light and tamping - cool! 2) Very comfortable no-hands smoking - cool! 3) Gurgled with the Bird's Eye Flake, but the water collects in the mortise and is reachable with a pipe cleaner - not a big problem. 4) It was gunkier than most pipes after one smoke - could have been the tobacco. 5) Smoke in the eyes - not cool! 6) Wearing a puffy down jacket (reading in my car)......can't turn head very much. Overall - might be a good TV pipe, could make you look cool in a photo, does not get the highest scores from me. Oom Paul fans - what setting and tobacco brings forth your enjoyment of this shape?
