Elizabethan Mixture is a 50/50 for me. Sometimes I can manage the nicotine but sometimes it puts my stomach into loopdeloops, no matter how much I prepared for it with a nice meal and a sweet drink on hand. It just has to be a hard day but a good day, my stomach wants something light.
@chocolatemonk6 күн бұрын
what do you tend to mix with it? I did a Stokeby pure VA 50/50 mix straight to bowl. I think I need to let it marry more or add a little toasted Cavendish?

I remember that video. Certainly a cautionary tale and hilarious incident after the fact. Well told sir. I dont think ive had vitamin N poisoning to that degree but i did have a cigar sneak up on me while working in a fire tower. I had the wobbly head, shaking hands, sweating profusely and i was weak and hiccuping like a cartoon drunk. It hit me right about the end of my shift. I had to climb down a couple hundred feet of narrow steel ladder in a high wind. When i finally got to the bottom after what seemed like hours i just sat there, head lolling, too weak to unhook myself from the safety cable for 20 minutes untill the cold revived me. Took a abnormally long leak and i was fine directly afterwards. I suppose that was my bodies way of getting rid of the excess N. I didn't smoke anymore cigars in the fire tower. Thanks for the enjoyable video.

Just seen your wonderful video. We bought a tin of Elisabeth'an Mix recently and I had a similar reaction. My wife likes a smoke occasionally and she had some too but she wasn't that affected. I've had several smokes since and I'm getting used to it now. Nice flavour etc but there's definitely something in that mix that has an explosive reaction . Great video !

Not to that severity but I also did feel quite dizzy smoking Elizabethan Mixture. However, I was able to smoke the full tin in a month or so. (Never purchased a second one). Something similar happened to me with Samuel Gawith 1792 flake tobacco. Unpleasant experiences of a pipe tobacco smoker. Thank you for your video.
@sounddude17710 ай бұрын
As I commented on your original video, Elizabethan Mixture is the only tobacco that has given me the same reaction. It was first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Never again. Someday I'll try it agajn in the evening after a full meal, but I'm not there yet. 15 minutes lying on the couch and a cup of coffee fixed it for me.

Just dove head first into pipe tobacco a few months ago, and EM is on the list of backlogged of pipe tobaccos that I've purchased. Been weaving my way through aromatics first, but now you've got me intimidated about some of the other things I bought, lol. Luckily, I'm not brand new to nicotine. I come from the cigar world, where I have definitely flirted with the N sickness with some of the stronger and longer smokes. I'll trade you, story for story. The first cigar I ever had definitely made me sick, but I blame my circumstance and lack of experience on that... The time to try your first cigar is not at a New Year's Eve party, with very little food on your stomach, already a few scotch whiskies deep, and out in the freezing cold with no jacket. I chiefed that poor Romeo Y Julieta down in less than 20 minutes (easily an hour long smoke, normally.) It had this magical effect of turning my Sherry finished scotch on the rocks taste almost like a fruity cotton candy. But immediately after, oh the N sickness kicked hard. No amount of food or water was gonna save me. The rest of the group wanted to watch Bird Box, and a horror/thriller really was not easing my nervous system or making me feel less nauseous. I went to go crash on the floor somewhere to ride out this rocking, spinning ship of horrors. Woke up with the worst tasting ashy, cottonmouth I'd ever experienced, and a headache from hell. And even after all of that, I decided to try cigars again, albeit months later, and with much smaller cigar and a full stomach. I'll take the same precaution with the EM, cheers!

Advice for anyone who might read this: 1. Do NOT keep the vomit in! It's one way of your body to get rid of something that's bad for you. I'm fairly sure if Gribley had let it happen, he wouldn't have been in that agony for so many hours. 2. If you can't eat something (very understandable), try and drink something sugary. It's not that the stomach needs something to do, but the blood sugar level seems to play an important role. I, too, found EM to be on the stronger side. But I've always been fine with a break mid-bowl. Sometimes I laid the pipe off until the next day. But, fortunately!, I never had an experience that bad with any tobacco. Maybe I notice very early when I've had enough nicotine. I don't think that I'm overly tough on the nic front. I like mild and medium tobaccos the most. But a Nightcap never gave me any problems. I almost never had a pipe on an empty stomach, though. Maybe one or two times.

Tobacco can be weird. I'm not a heavyweight at all, but Elizabethan never got me like that. I only had one bowl, but only because I didn't like the blend. However, the first time I had Haunted Bookshop, I'm pretty sure I died a couple of times. I had no issues with it the last time I smoked it. Go figure. Now, Black XX, I will never touch again. EVERY time I smoke it, it's 10 hours of misery.
