Welcome Buzz, Captain Black Royal is the only OTC aro that I always have on hand, now and then I'll bust lose and buy a white or Gold, but the Royal is a must have around here. Claude suggested Amphora Full Flavor, if you find it ,check for the Amphora Burley Blend. Burleys are a good next step from aromatics. You might try mixing the two C.B. blends for a third and more personal CB mix. Great ideas Goldbrick. Thanks. My first briar pipe is due to arrive tomorrow and so I went out and grabbed a $10 cob pipe at the local shop and smoked the Royal last night. Think I overpacked it; kept needing to get relit; no biggie, easy fix. But I am hoping to find a sweeter aromatic. There's a corridor of pleasant pipe smoke aromas that i really like. Now I'm wondering if, as the smoker, if I will get to enjoy it if I find it. Really like it when I pick up on others' smokes. It's an adventure. Having fun getting some stuff figured out. Thanks for the suggestions - will definitely give them a try. Personally, I have found aromatics to be kinda weak in taste. I do like Amphora full aroma. Not sure how much of an aromatic it actually is. Edward G Robinson is good. A good cherry is Cult Blood Red Moon. |

Thanks Kevin for the suggestions. I have looked for the Amphora Full Aroma but haven't yet found a store that inventories the line. May need to have a store order it.
