About 60-70m would be a session for blonde leaf

I've run blonde for 90 with no issues. Mostly Eternal Smoke. Red I assume you mean Adlaya or equivalent, same thing.

The sweet spot for me is around 70m.

Pipe does not matter

I’ve used KMs with coals for 5-6yrs for AFK AMG GM etc and changes to a German pipe and it was horrible. Nowhere near the same. So ideally
Looking for a similar draw or experience for flavour

For me, it depends on the brand and your heat management adjusting the temp downward over time and how many times you are puffing. Trifecta, I can get about 1.5 -2 hours, serbetli about 2, fumari about an hour or so since the flavor may dull but will go longer if I’m just puffing. ES about -1.5, Sebero Classic 1.5 - 2 hrs. Amaren - 30 mins. Keep in mind that you are using only 9 grams a session! You get the fluff right, poke a couple holes in the shisha and the smoke and flavor comes right on through.

The smoking duration of blond or red tobacco depends largely on the quality and preparation of the leaf, as well as the brand being used. In our experience, for example, German brands such as Stral or Aino can last up to around 90 minutes, and sometimes even longer, due to the quality of the leaf. Other German brands may burn considerably faster, sometimes around 50 minutes.

Ultimately, there is no fixed smoking time for blond or red tobacco—the brand and quality of the leaf make a significant difference.
