[QUOTE="jacko, post: 108964, member: 1241"] Just a few observations from a new pipe smoker. First I think the history of aromatics makes the perception they are a less of a serious smoke, possible juvenile. Pipe smoking is a sophisticated past time and lighting a hand cut pipe with peaches and cream just seems to loose something. That being said if you take a look at all Peterson's special blends in the past few years they would all be classified as aromatics (even thought they don't directly market as such). I have purchased a few of these (Summertime 2010, 2010, 2009 L.E.) which I have found all to be amazing smokes (once allowed to breath). My question is why would the juggernaut of pipe companies only produce aro blends? Frankly as we move away from easily accessible pipe tobaccos at our local stores which purposely attempt to persuade minors into smoking with flavored blends to independent companies existing mostly online, I think the lines will continue to blur to the point where it will be impossible to differentiate...
