Hello all. I was a pipe smoker for about 6 years when for a verity of reasons (including children, housing, and lack of personal liquidity) I put the hobby on hiatus. That was a little more than 10 years ago and I'm in a position to get back into it.
I prefer Virginia or English, but can enjoy all blends. It’s interesting how much the pipe tobacco "ecosystem" has changed in a single decade. McClelland, Esoterica, and Germain were my go to, but it looks like they are ether gone for good or as rare as unicorns where I live. Germain's Brown Flake was my go to for years so any recommendations for an alternative are welcome.
