Have You Try Ginger Tea Or Milk?
Recently, I start drinking a cup worm ginger tea or a bottle of milk while smoking. I know it sounds weird, but it does an amazing job to me. I always get tongue bite while smoking. But now, they can ease the sting on my tongue, also enhance flavor of tobacco. Y'all should give it a try.- hyperstar

It makes the pipe stop gurgling and keeps the smoke dry. I think the moisture in pipe stem is most likely the saliva. It gets into the stem when we...- hyperstar
