I am intrigued when I read about the different tobaccos revered and sometimes almost worshipped by members. I am afraid that I missed something along the way. I have tried Haddos, Rattrays, the Frogs and many others mentioned on this forum. It is with some temerity that I admit to this group that none of them really suited me. I am currently smoking mostly aromatics blended by Boswell. In my defense, I have been a pipe collector for years and recognize good quality pipes. I have Blue Ribands, Dunhills, Radice, Upshalls, CAO meerschaums, Castellos, Caminettos and others. Is there a learning curve and a trial by fire (no pun intended) required to reach the sacred grounds of tobacco connoiseurs and an appreciation for more sophisticated sources of nicotine? I would appreciate the experiences of others and your thoughts on this subject. Thanks
