It's a story repeated every year when the weather turns cooler that many switch from Virginia blends to more lat heavy offerings. I go the other way. For me the subtle complexities of a fine Virginia are far better enjoyed when the temperature and humidity drop. The much cooler, 30-50 degF, and drier, "intake air" help to keep the tobacco temperature down and allow for a faster cadence without compromising flavor. The net result is more fine Virginia flavor per unit time or an even more nuanced smoke at the usual Virginia pace.
If you haven't done this get your go-to summer Virginia favorite and take it for a spin on a cool day and discover new dimensions to it.
Always something new to discover and learn in these truly Golden Days of pipes and tobacco.
