OK, so I have picked up the pipe for less than 6 months now, but I have been aggressively trying different mixtures of tobacco, and I have come to enjoy some and dislike others. I am still researching and studying the different types of tobacco and trying to figure out which mixes possess the types and amounts that my taste would prefer.
Early on, the local B&M suggested Lane 1-Q. It was ok, but I have since discovered that others that I like much better have made me lose the taste for Lane 1-Q. I tried Early Morning Pipe and hated it.
I absolutely love Frog Morton Cellar, and I am also gaining a fondness to Old Dog. Is it weird that I also bought Frog Morton -on the town, and I had a difficult time telling much difference (only slight) from Cellar? A friend has been smoking a pipe for many years, and he recommended "Balkan Blue". I like it, but surprisingly (at least to him) I did not love it. Three types that I keep smoking and still on the fence about are Nightcap, Elizabethan Mixture, and Aperitif. I like the hint of spice (Perique?), but do not feel for it every day. I actually have enjoyed and bought a couple tins of Macanudo. It burns well, and I like the hint of vanilla.
Lastly, in the evenings, I have grown to appreciate and enjoy Capt. Earles Nightwatch.
OK, so that laid out, please review my trials and shoot me recommendations of where to go next.
Thank you!
