I smoke very fast and always the blends with the highest nicotine content. At the rate I puff I'm able to smoke about 12 bowlfuls a day. I've not noticed any adverse effects. Nope.

Depends on what I'm smoking but normally I don't smoke that much in a day

sheeesh....I'm being extra lazy today, as I'm only on my third bowl. Definitely not going to make that 10 bowl goal, today! Oh well..no biggy.

Sounds like Prince Albert is the ultimate all day smoke. I smoked a couple ounces of the stuff, some time back. I don't remember liking it too much. I have some Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic that should be arriving in the mail shortly along with the "all day smoke" 7 Reserve and some Red Rapparee.

I heard SWRA is quite similar to PA, but with a light casing, but, maybe it won't bite too much. I still need to try CH and H&H. It would be awesome to find a cheap all day smoke that I'm satisfied with. I recall reading reviews where some pipers say SWRA is their all day smoke.

I don't get flavors ravishing through with Prince Albert like I do with my favorite english blends. For me, it's a mildly satisfying tobacco with body and a little sweetness. It ain't like sucking air. PA is great for inatentive smoking and it's hard to smoke it wrong. Taste bud chemistries differ of course so PA is not for everyone.

Red Rapparee is something I've been wanting to try but haven't gotten to it yet. Same goes for Black Mallory.

I be willing to bet that I'd be able, too. I enjoy both 5bros and XX (need to try XXX) and at one point, I even mixed them together for a very enjoyable smoke.

lol, when I had 5 bros on hand, I used to smoke a few bowls in a row, and was fine. Love the flavor, but didn't get this nic kick everyone mention.

then again I am a very, very big boy, so it would prob take a hard dose of nicotine to really mess with me.

PM me and I'll send you some Red Rap. I've got a bunch of it aging but I also have a few oz in the humidor. No Black Mal, though. Yuk!

Samual Gawith's Brown #4..... I couldn't even get past the first few min of it in my pipe..
I only bought it because it was a rope

Yep, you are the reason they came up with handgun ammo bigger than .44 mag. I have known, and worked with, some extremely large guys (6'8" 325 lbs) that got laid low by a bowl of Captain Black. I guess it really is very individual!!!

Did you know it takes 10 bowls of tobacco to equal 1 bowl of Total?...sorry I read the entire thread and thats all I was thinking.

I really liked the butternut burley and think that would be a great all day smoke. From 4noggins under hearth and home.

Also if your in it to smoke all day is one thing but if you are just determined to hit the 10 Bowl mark just to say you can smoke 10bowls...use smaller bowls :P

[SailorJack]

Ten bowls, NO SWEAT!! I do that on a regular basis with no ill effects.
COUGH, COUGH

In other words, smoke your pipe as you do cigarettes, minus the inhaling.

I agree. Smoke for 5 or 10 min then set it down. This gives you the same "smoke" you're used to with cigs and not requiring 10 bowls a day that equate to probably 5 hours of smoking in a day! A pipe can easily be tamped and re-lite multiple times on a bowl in 5-10 minute increments...

Try this and let us know if it works. But most of all ENJOY the pipe, don't make it a CHORE or you'll soon tire of it.
