Single dose smoking device with predefined bowl volumes
Disclosed is a novel single dose smoking device that provides advancement to the traditional pipe bowl design, and these advancements translate exceedingly well to the unique applications of an expanding smokers market, where discerning smokers are increasingly refining their preferences. More specifically, the single dose smoking device includes a stem with a first end and a second end, and a bowl with a draw end and pack end. The stem and bowl are formed from an organic or inorganic material with a draw end and pack end. The draw end includes a hole or series of holes therethrough for allowing gases to pass therebetween.

a rigid paper tubular stem with a first end and a second end; and
a bowl formed with a cylindrical shaped sidewall of a given height, a draw end, and pack end, the draw end formed with a wall that is substantially perpendicular to the cylindrical shaped sidewall to define an interior volume, the interior volume sized to hold only a precise measured dose of smoking material, the draw end sized as a compression fit and/or with glue into the second end of the rigid paper tubular stem, the draw end includes a hole or series of holes therethrough for allowing gases to pass therebetween, wherein the bowl is available in one of three distinct volume sizes of
a smaller dose to accommodate less than 80 mg of smoking material;
a medium dose to accommodate between 80 mg and 120 mg of smoking material; and
a larger dose to accommodate greater than 120 mg of smoking material.
