Turning over a new (tobacco) leaf

I decided to get out of a pipe tobacco rut by buying some import tobaccos that I had never tried, just to smoke something new. I found a great site called Pipes World and ordered three: Mac Baren Virginia No. 1, Rattray's Brown Clunee, and Esoterica Pembroke. I've really been enjoying them - I try to stick to a couple of pipes only on the weekend, but I've made a few exceptions since this tobacco is so nice! The packaging is really fun - cool tins that smell wonderful once the seal is broken. I like them all, but I've just discovered that the Esoterica is simply amazing! At first, I thought the aroma was unusual, but it's incredibly smooth, with no bite whatsoever ("tongue bite" is the arch enemy of pipe smokers). Looks like mail-order tobacco for me from now on!
