Only One Blend

[lukasstrifeson]

Like others have expressed already, I just don't get this obsession with being a 'one blend man'...

I am amazed at the number of people who thrive on one blend, particularly farmers in the region. I smoke three blends regularly (Pease's Six Pence and Stonehenge as well as C&D's Mad Fiddler). I have three others that I smoke occasionally, Pease's Windjammer and Windjammer and Mac Baren's HH Rustica.

I I was forced to choose just one, Sixpence would be on the consideration list for sure.

…..which is a bit of a new experience for me.

I think that right there is what keeps me so attracted to the pipe.
Even revisiting old blends I’ve had, but not lately, can be a new experience, let alone the vast selection of blends available (even within each genre).

Not a chance. When it comes to whisky, wine, cigars and pipes/baccy i love to ruminate on the variety before making a choice. There's something for every time of day, special occasion, type of meal, etc.

When it come to food: animal products only. At least i keep one thing simple.

It’s seems to me that “one blend folks” was during a time when folks either didn’t have extra income to delve into variety or they are folks that truly singularly love one specific blend of . Fortunately, I’m neither one of these examples.
For me at least, I’ve been smoking mainly Haunted Bookshop, Opening Night, Cobblestone Hiking, Rouxgaroux & St. Bruno RR for the last 2-3 months. If I was forced to pick ONE blend to solely smoke…Haunted Bookshop of course would be satisfyingly enough for me. ️

I tend to smoke only one blend, but I do have many others that I sometimes will be smoking from time to time. But, that said, yes, I have one primary blend that I smoke. And it is more than enough.

What might that one primary Blend be Partner?

I confine my pipe smoking to tobacco, that's as close as I'll get to a single blend all the time.

I vary my tobacco, but not by much. Maybe a dozen types that I have in bulk (~5-10 lbs each)and continually rotate as my everyday go-to....and I'll usually try one new tin each month or two.

But, I'll smoke the same 2-3 tobaccos for up to 3-6 months at a time.

However, one thing I am a stickler about is.....if I open it, I smoke it until it is gone. Unless it is so unappealing that I can't finish, but that has never happened before. If it is opened, it stays in my daily rotation until it is gone.
