What Is An "American" Blend, Exactly?
Yeah English with burley is what I saw for the nearly 200 active listings in tobbacoreviews.com (searching on 'American' blends only). There are number of English blends with some burley they didn't categorize as American...the common factor for American seemed to be that burley had to be a...- --dante--

What Is An "American" Blend, Exactly?
Well I see there is _not_ a definition, and I simply asked if there was. Further, what would or wouldn't constitute a debate over a 40-year span would of course change.- --dante--

Hi Everyone. Back to Pipes...
Welcome! I'm in the same boat -- quit for about 10 years (I don't remember why), and happily back!- --dante--

Managing A “Cellar”
I don't track anything. I have a general idea what I have, and keep some of the older stuff in a bin that I often forget I even have. When I'm adding something to it, I'll occasionally look over the tins and jars, and pull something I forgot I had. Works for me.- --dante--

Have you tried (smoked or chewed) Cotton Boll? I have yet to do so, but as a cheap, straight-up very strong burley-only rope, it seems to fit your comments here.- --dante--

When To Stop Adding To Cellar
Well said. I have been primarily stocking up only on a few commonly available domestic US blends that are staples of mine, just guarding against some sudden legislation out of left field here in the US. One exception is Salty Dogs. I often toss one of them in an order, fearing they will...- --dante--

When To Stop Adding To Cellar
You have a good point there (about the affects of aging). I have a lot of 10-15 year old tins as a result of having quit pipes for about 10 years or so. I'm not really impressed with any of the one's I've popped. They're good, but many of them I actually didn't like the smoothing out effect...- --dante--

What Is An "American" Blend, Exactly?
That sounds about right. I did an advanced search on tobaccoreviews, selecting 'American' as the blend type. It yielded 196 blends, and each one I checked was burley forward and contained latakia and/or orientals and/or perique.- --dante--

What Is An "American" Blend, Exactly?
I'm definitely _not_ serious about it. I'm not drawing circles and arrows on a whiteboard here -- just thought there might be an actual definition. I was wrong, and will hereby make up my own blend description for everything! ;)- --dante--
