However, if it becomes too thick, it may expand faster than the bowl of the pipe itself when heated, cracking the bowl. Before reaching this point, it needs to be scraped down with a reamer. It is merely brought into the mouth, pumped around oral and nasal cavities to permit absorption of nicotine toward the brain through the mucous membranes, and released. If it is smoked too quickly, it can produce excess moisture causing a gurgling sound in the pipe and an uncomfortable sensation on the tongue (referred to as “pipe tongue”, or more commonly, “tongue bite”).

Escudo Navy Deluxe is the gold standard of Virginia/Perique blends and has been for more than 140 years. Choice US grown Virginias and slowly fermented Louisiana Perique are combined, then pressed and spun, finally being sliced into coins. The flavor is lightly sweet but has nice depth and a pleasant amount of spice. A unique mixture of selected tobaccos including Virginia Burley, Maryland blended with some Black Cavendish and topped with a cream caramel flavour. This excellent mixture is a blend of first choice Virginia, Burley and Black Cavendish. A unique smoking experience which is crowned by a wonderful Ameretto aroma that also gives enjoyment to the smokers surroundings.

This can be done with a finger or thumb, but if the tobacco needs to be repacked later, while it is burning, the tamper on a pipe tool is sometimes used. If it needs to be loosened, the reamer, or any similar long pin can be used. A traditional way of packing the pipe is to fill the bowl and then pack gently to about 1⁄3 full, fill again and pack slightly more firmly to about 2⁄3 full, and then pack more firmly still to the top.
