Owner, your question is actually very simple, but the satisfactory answer is really misleading. In my play pipe half a year, but also just started, for the special features of the pipe also have a deep understanding of the knowledge of the pipe is far more than I expected at first.

First of all, on the difference between pipes and cigarettes, their tobacco is different, cigarette tobacco - in China, most of the tobacco is mainly roasted, and the characteristics of roasted cigarettes is dry, have you ever seen what kind of cigarettes half of the cigarette will go out? The reason for this is that their tobacco is very finely cut and roughly made (not with a lot of chemical additives as someone replied). There's an apt analogy that cigarettes are crushed tea and pipes are kung fu tea. Compared with cigarettes, pipes have too many special features. From the point of view of tobacco, first of all, pipe tobacco is not strictly speaking tobacco, it exists in a variety of ways, such as slicing, loose grass, briquettes, rolled strips and so on. From the production process up points also divided into the grass and pure grass, pure grass is also mainly divided into V and L (Chinese pipe users are so divided, there are many kinds of specific will not go into details). So from the point of view of the grass, not like that aunt said the pipe tobacco is more natural.

Secondly, from the pipe itself, the production of the pipe is different from the dry pouch, mostly wood, so this feature determines the specificity of the pipe, as we all know that this wood is going to be, so we need to practice breathing when smoking a pipe, but also to practice filling the grass. So pipe smoking is not a simple thing. Specifically there are a lot of tips, experience as well as methods, I hope you more to the Internet to check the information, rather than to know to be a reacher, pipe smoking is not a small field. If you like, you are welcome to come to the pipe bar to discuss together.

Finally, the maintenance of the pipe, the pipe is not only a smoking tool, but also a handicraft, the pipe customers are often compared to the pipe as a small honey, you need to cherish it, it will be more you talk. Specific pipe maintenance methods are not to repeat, online information, if you need to continue to ask.
