I'm sure in one fashion or another, this has been posted elsewhere, but after sifting for a while I figure I'd try posting anew and see where it gets me.
Question: For a newer pipe smoker who wishes to 'graduate' and move on to non-aromatic blends, what suggestions are out there for blends to try next?
All I've smoked has been aromatics in one fashion or another, rather than blends with no (or little) casing.
Favorite Blends thus far:
Peterson Gold
McClelland VBC
McClelland Honeydew
Just to name a few. I often hit up my local tobacco shop and invest in random blends, but always with some form of vanilla. I don't smoke for the nicotine. I enjoy the tingles on my palate and since this will be my first time stepping outside of what I know, I'm hoping some of the more tobacco-savvy have some ideas, as my past experiences are obviously limited.
I have not yet received them, but two recent orders on their way: McClelland's Frog Morton's Cellar and Orlik Golden Sliced (both have raving reviews and I figure why not?).
