Good read. I agree with post #2. I smoke whenever and whatever I hanker for, weather and seasons do not bind or influence me. Don't get to read or hear the word hanker too often
About the only trend I have is to smoke the "holiday aromatics" most often during the holiday season.
I don't smoke them very much the rest of the year.
I always enjoy Greg's writings. As for me, weather and seasons does not effect the blends I smoke. In fact the older I get the more I've limited my pipe smoking down to 4 or 5 blends only. The funny? thing is I have 200 to 300 pounds of aged quality tobaccos that I've stashed away over the years. I think Hoosier has me beat though, lol.
