Hi guys,
I'd like to ask your opinion on how to continue the tobacco discovery journey ... if you follow my train of thoughts.
I have here 11 tobaccos that I've tried, some I liked, some I didn't, you know how it goes.
Now I go on this pipe tobacco online store, and ...what? What to get, how can I find new things that I might enjoy?
Buy anything and see how it goes ? shipping tobaccoes here costs a fortune, I'd rather make it without too many risks.
How would you guys do ?
FYI I live in China, I can't just go to the corner tobacconist shop ... :'(
Maybe you have suggestions:
This is what I have and my opinions on them: (btw, my opnions are really the ones of a newbie, I might do everything wrong and thus have a wrong feeling about a great tobacco or vice versa)
WO LArsen 1864: I love the nutty smell and taste, it feels nice, sweet and comforting, but by the middle of the bowl it turns a little off.
WO Larsen Signature : great smell, also aromatic: interesting to smoke but can get a little bity.
Dunhill Nightcap: great experience to smoke, love the Latakia feeling but after a bowl or two, I feel like I need to taste something else.
Dunhill Early morning : same feeling as nightcap, English blend, latakia, strong, great smell, can get overdosish.
Samuel Gawith Perfection : actually, I think that I am not confident enough and experienced enough to really appreciate the tastes of these English blends who, to me tend to be a little too much.
Orlik Golden Sliced : took me a while to like it, but now I do enjoy it once in a while,
I like the smell of it.
After that, I recently got the 5 blends of the "Middle series" from Just for him: still discovering them, just had a bowl of each. They feel a little the same to me. :-S
So here it is, if you guys have some suggestions for a new smoker, I'll take 'em.
Thanks a lot.
