I’m not as verbose as others, and possibly not as descriptive, but I do give my individual take on each blend I review. I often speak in generalities and leave the details and nuances to others.

I’ve been smoking a pipe since 2002, but have really been consistently doing so since 2015.

I like Balkans, Orientals, and VaPers the most, but if it’s not aromatic, I probably don’t hate it.
