How many folks change blend types with changes in the seasons: what and when.

I kinda hunker down with codger Burleys in Winter, and gradually switch off to Virginia types in the Spring. I don't do it intentionally -- it just seems like an inadvertent transition in tastes or appetite.

I do the same thing. I will smoke quite a few aromatics in the fall and winter. But when it starts getting warmer out, I don't really prefer to smoke them. This also happens somewhat with English blends as well.
When it starts getting warmer, I tend to gravitate towards mainly Virginia and VA/Per blends. I still smoke English and some Aromatics during the warm months, but not quite as often as I do in the cooler months.

I think I tend to go with those smokes that I can take a bite out of in the cooler months.

And, in the warmer months I tend toward lighter smokes.
But, I think the largest influence would be my surroundings, what I'm listening to, or reading, and the time of day.

I love my latakia in the morning.
