Mouth & tongue feel scorched?

[BigFrank]

As said above, slow down a little. I experienced this often when I first started smoking. At first I was afraid to let the pipe go out, so I smoked fast and hard. And it left my mouth and tongue jacked up. Smoke slow. If it goes out just relight. I found the slower the better at first, plus with different blends you will have to adjust your smoking speed. It's easier to speed up than slow down.
Also I find that tobacco that is overdried tends to smoke hot and bite some.
