Minimal Happiness Requirements?

[Contrarian_King]

I could do well with just Elizabethan Mixture at this point, and am looking forward to trying one pipe + one blend for 2026 to test this.

A Latakia mixture. A virginia & perique. An occasional aromatic and I'm content.

Seasons Greetings to all

My basic cellar would be

Petersons Early Morning Pipe
C&D's Black Frigate
G&H's Bothy Flake
Germains Rich Dark Flake

I could probably survive with just the first three but Rich Dark Flake compliments good pints of Guinness like you wouldn't believe!!

Current cellar is my minimalist cellar:

• Peterson De Luxe Navy Rolls
• Rattray Old Gowrie
• The Country Squire Black & Tan

Wanna see how I pack for a minimalist adventure?

Sure especially if the soundtrack is Yakety Sax.

Blimey! 15 blends! You're no minimalist, are you?

If I was truly a minimalist I wouldn't be a pipe smoker, now would I?

But to be true to the thread title, if you really forced me to chose, I could be ok with:

Moose Marmalade
Old Dominion
Ellipsis Flake
Peretti Omega and ok at least a dozen other blends are you kidding me I just can't do it don't make me please I'm begging you!!!
