[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 418290, member: 2244"] Oh MAN !! I was hoping this thread was going somewhere with the Parochial schools tales but OK, back to 'baccy. Though I did not really ever try to many Aro's when I started ( I was given my initial instruction in pipe smoking by a Captain in 'Nam who was a CONFIRMED Granger smoker and that's what I started with :twisted: ) only really trying some later when I was moving away from my Granger. I still have a few Aro's that I keep on hand and do enjoy on occasion. I think much of what Dutch said about learning smoking technique has a lot to do with being able to enjoy a GOOD Aro and I do feel ther are some GOOD ones out there alongside some really horendous sugar loaded topped stuff !! If one is wanting something sweet and sweeter in aroma, there are many straight Va's out there that can provide that without the excess topping as one finds in many of the lesser quality ARO'S ! Since pipe smoking is, or I hope would be, activity not HOBBY, I say give ALL varieties of blends/mixtures a try and take your time as you have a LIFETIME for this !! And remember when it stops becoming a pleasurable activity then maybe it's not meant to be!! :twisted: :twisted: As always, ONWARD THRU THE FOG :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: [/QUOTE]
