First pipe

I got a Chacom pipe and tried some straight virginia followed by a blend called 5 Star from sterling tobacco.

The 5 star wasn't bad, but the straight virginia wasn't so good. I might try blending it with some cavendish. Also, a buddy of mine said it won't taste very good for the first few bowls anyways.

Is it normal to hear the whooshing type noise when you draw from it? I'm wondering if I packed the bowl too loose. I seemed to have some difficulty keeping it lit too.
