Pipe tobaccos for Fall

Felt inspired to break out a well known maple flavored pipe tobacco in honor of autumn. I was quickly reminded that while it smells nice, it just has no ‘oomph’ - which probably equals nicotine.

Conversely a virginia and/or burley blend has subtle natural fermented sweetness but also a kind of deep presence in the experience. Feels more meditative and substantial to me. Whereas aros give me the impression I may just be wasting time.

To each their own of course. Think I’ll work on breaking in my new pipe with some Carter Hall (va/bur).

What’s in your fall pipe / cigar rotation out there?
