80+ Tobacco Sampler; Help Develop My Palette

[Harv]

@Harv, I admire your work and your various reasons—beyond evaluating pipe tobacco—for doing it. I wish you joy of it.

I understand why you want all this searchable information in your spreadsheet but, If I were going to be systematic, I would not duplicate all the data available on TR. I would limit myself to the name, components, a description of what I was able to taste when I focused on identifying tastes, and my impressions over time. Of course, you notice I said "if."

Yeah a lot of it was for ideas about data analytics for fun, but now that I'm using it a bit they really don't seem worth the effort an I haven't been using them at all.

The term "piper" is disliked by many. Just see the Insults thread!

A fellow SCUBA Diver! Yeah I'm all over that one, and I've actually read a good few of your posts and appreciated them. I moved everything over to excel and I've got individual tabs also setup to get into more detail about the blends. In that area is a section of just notes like you're suggesting.

If you wanna see the current one feel free to shoot me a PM and I can e-mail it to you.

Thanks -- glad some of my posts have been helpful! PM sent.

How: Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down.

I love real pipers! I love marching bands, and marching with them, near the pipers.

But calling a pipe smoker a "piper" is like fingernails on a black board for some here.

“Piper” used to refer to one who smokes pipes is almost as grating to me as calling cyclists “bikers”…almost.

Sorry for the digression @Harv

Eh it's the basic/beginner section, so seems somewhat on topic still to me.
