mj_b90 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I'm trying to smoke some Tangiers Spearmint for the first time right now. I don't have a phunnel yet so I used my mod bowl...filled it to the top then pushed it down a very little bit. Several large-ish toothpick sized holes down through the tobacco and one large chunk of natural charcoal. Its not quite harsh, I can take a full hit without coughing or anything. But its giving a heavy tickle on the exhale and weak smoke. I've tried moving the coal around a lot but its not getting any better. Did I under pack it?

Scoop Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 thin and harsh is almost always a sign of underpacking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mj_b90 Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 I moved the coal a bit more onto the bowl and got some average smoke...but its still giving the throat tickle and very little flavor. I'll probably order a phunnel before trying it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santino Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 The throat tickle you describe is probably attributed to a need for acclimation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
