I don't think this specific topic has come up too often. Usually the topic is more focused on just pipe tobaccos with a good room note. It is difficult to judge room note by oneself if you have to smoke outside, such as I do, so I would be interested in other people's experiences here.
Not interested in conventional aromatic suggestions. I would consider mild aromatics in the vein of Royal Yacht or a navy flake with mild rum topping. Aromatic English blends like FM Cellar are out. Aromatic ropes/twists might be okay, depending on the flavoring.
The minimum nicotine strength would have to be on the order of Royal Yacht, HH ODF, Nightcap, Jackknife plug, etc. For some reason, I seem to have a high tolerance or a low absorption rate for nicotine, and I just barely notice it when smoking these blends, and usually only during the last 1/3 of the bowl. Something in the strength range of a rope/twist would be ideal.
Lastly, I would be helpful to specify whether the room note is agreeable to smoker, non-smokers or both.
To give some background of why I am bringing up this topic, there are a number of bars/cafes that have outdoor seating. It is not uncommon for people to smoke cigarettes here, so those who would be smelling my pipe smoke might very well be smokers, but in some situations that might not be the case. As such, it would be ideal to know of blends that please both smoker and non-smoker alike, if possible. Otherwise, I would be willing to settle for blends that are agreeable to people who like tobacco.
I could settle for any of the minimum blends indicated above, but I don't know if the room notes on those are agreeable to others. I would imagine straight brown/black rope would not work here, but if there is a aromatic rope such as rum twist, whiskey twist, etc, that has a good room note, I would consider that.
So if anyone has any suggestions/experience on this, let me know.
