What major blends should be divided per pipe is a large question for me now.
I enjoy Ashtons Smooth Sailing, a blend that im smoking right now Bayou Nights. I remember there were a few Peter Stokkebye blends i enjoyed at the cigar lounge in Vegas. Normally they were all blends and at the time i have no clue what was in it ( So maybe suggestions for STRAIGHT tobacco i could search for to really taste the differences.)
Beyond that I really am clueless haha, Cigars I go Ape sh*t for reading articles, listening and learning, also a bit of teaching but Pipe is still a fairly new thing to me.

example of what i'm saying: lets say you have a briar straw, and you love grape kool-ade. you drink the same grape flavored kool-ade for a week straight. you rinse the straw after every glass. then one day, you decide to go for kiwi-strawberry. you stick your straw that has a grape kool-ade ghost in it, and take a sip... you taste grape with hints of kiwi-strawberry.
you don't need a pipe for every single blend you smoke, but it's suggested to have at least 1 for the different genres of pipe tobacco you smoke.
some ppl have enough pipes, and a favorite tobacco, they dedicate that pipe to that tobacco - it also helps if the pipe really likes tosmoke that tobacco.
i can't make any suggestions for you until we know what you've had and like or dislike (and why).
