After joining this forum back in July, I've been doing a lot of reading of past threads. Partly out of curiosity, but mostly to become better informed. I've been away from pipe-smoking for years, and I now need to catch up on what's hot, and what's not.
I've come across the term...."balanced blend"..... I have no idea, or, more accurately, I have some idea, of what this term might mean. So to better understand and know just what defines a "balanced blend", I'll ask my fellow forum members to educate me. Take me to school.
It would be very helpful when mentioning/discussing a certain blend, just why the blend is balanced, and to cite examples of blends that are failures, or "unbalanced" blends....
I can venture a guess that examples of what is considered a "balanced blend" will come down to personal opinions. That's fine. I think I am more interested in knowing/learning about which blends are just total failures. It's way easier to judge what's good, when you know, what's bad.
Thanks for helping.
