Greetings from Arizona, in all honesty, I am more active in facebook groups as I am almost never at a computer and the briar patch is not as user friendly on mobile. I have been a cigar smoker for 20 years and would occasionally smoke a pipe, always aromatic, a couple of times a year. I don't know how or why, but a couple of years back, that totally flipped on it's head. I now hardly ever smoke cigars as the spectrum of the pipe is so much more vast and less costly. I definitely have TAD as opposed to PAD. I still enjoy aromatics, but much less often. I find I like english blends in cooler months and have smoked almost all virginias and vapers in the summer. I am still in the phase of trying as many blends as I can get my hands on so I know what to stock up on should pipe tobacco go the way of New Zealand. My least favorite brand is Cornell and Diehl, my least favorite varietal is burley. I tend to prefer more german and british brands. The guy who really escalated my pipe world was my uncle, known here in the forum as joeman. Happy smokes!

Welcome to the patch, I'm in Glendale. Have you switched the page over to "mobile view?" It's at the bottom of the page. Desktop view is terrible on mobile.

Welcome to the forum!
There is a wealth of knowledge on hear to learn from, present company excluded.
I too like my English blends in the cooler months, it seems to be the same with many others.

I know what to stock up on should pipe tobacco go the way of New Zealand. Do you mean the Lamb Slices pipe tobacco from New Zealand? Has that been discontinued? |

Welcome from New Hampshire. There are quite a few knowledgeable people on this forum. I am just the opposite of you. While I don't always frequent the forums on my computer, I am almost never on a mobile device, and tend to avoid any site that favors a mobile interface.

Welcome from Chicago!
I'm also a member of a couple of Facebook groups, but for my part I much prefer the more leisurely pace of a forum such as this, where I can think about a conversation, put in a word at my leisure, or even go back and pick up on something that was last discussed months ago. And since the closure of McClelland's, Cornell & Diehl is one of my favorite blenders; so in a couple of ways we come at things from very different perspectives. Well, that is all right. Chacun à son goût, vive la différence, and fuma quod amas et ama quod fumas. You've come to the right place for learning about different blends, sharing ideas and suggestions, and generally swapping yarns.
