Let’s start from square one: how does a gentleman correctly smoke a pipe? It’s simple and straightforward, right? There’s not much to it, right? Well, not necessarily.
In reality, there are some best practices that every gentleman should know when it comes to the packing of tobacco, lighting the pipe, and tending to the ember as one enjoys a relaxing smoke.
The Fine Gentlemen at my favorite pipe shop, McCranie’s in Charlotte, NC, have provided a fairly comprehensive guide to the art of smoking a pipe. Read, implement, and relax.
