For Veteran Pipe Smokers, How Many Types and Blends do you Enjoy on a Regular Basis?

[Dave760]

Started in '78, and I can't honestly say I smoke anything regularly because I smoke way too wide of a variety of blends for anything to become "regular."

When people ask me what types of blends I enjoy, my answer should be, "Yes."

A more responsive answer, I stick to three blends more or less all the time. I can be induced, rarely, to try something new. Sixty years of smoking, 55 with the pipe in my nicotine delivery arsenal.

I have 12 jars in the drawer with currently smoking tobaccos. A few I smoke often, Stokabye Luxury Navy Flake, McClelland 27 & 2015 and Bob's Chocolate Flake. The rest not as much Watch City Old Dominion & 558, Dunhill EMP, Stonehaven and MacBaren Navy Flake. Yes....I am lucky to have what I have!

I smoke mostly Virginia-forward blends, with burleys and aromatics regularly but less often. I don’t like Latakia or anything Lakeland floral.

Among the genres I smoke, I like many different blends, though I’d bet most of my bowls are of the same dozen or so blends.

One favourite blend, a VaPer, two or three times a day. Three "guest" blends, one each a day. About 10 "old faithfuls" to hand, maybe one or two once a day. Samples on top of that. Virginias, VaPers, VaBurs, Burley, English, Aromatics/Flavoured. Plugs, kakes, coins, flakes, ribbon cuts, ready rubbed, ropes, twists.

Options are good!

Like many have said, I like it all.....except thick aromatics.
I'm about 30 years in, on and off.
If pushed, Id say my favorite is straight Virginia or Latakia based blends.

I have been smoking a pipe for many years. My tastes are eclectic but in general I smoke LOTS of Orlich Golden Sliced, Haunted Bookshop, and a large assortment of Boswell tobaccos including carious aromatics. But most importantly, since the late 70s I have had a pouch of the Carter Hall in my front pocket at all times. Its a rare day that I dont smoke a couple of bowls of CH. Its like an old friend.
