similar to him, i have mine split up as
Va/Per pipes
Virginia pipes
Rope pipes
1 English pipe (anything with latakia)
1 Oriental pipe (oriental blends without latakia)
1 Aromatic pipe
since i'm predominantly a Virginia and Va/Per smoker, nearly 30 pipes of mine are dedicated to those blends.
i have grown out of liking anything with Latakia, so i have 1 pipe for English/Balkan style blends. i don't hate Oriental blends, but i'm not in the mood for them often, so i only keep 1 pipe for them as well.
by "rope pipes", there are some very strongly scented tobaccos that will ghost a pipe in a heartbeat, and i have 3 or 4 pipes dedicated to those types of tobaccos that Ropes are made from (unscented ropes, that is).
you don't want to smoke 5 bowls of english tobacco in 1 pipe, then smoke a light Virginia in the same pipe. you'll miss half the Virginia because the ghost of English will overpower the flavor.
