Asking a question like that could coast you a mailbox!!!

Long answer there chazbo...

To be fair I believe you should try a good english/oriental blend (latakia) a Virginia blend (VaPur/VaBur) and *shiver* a aromatic.

I would smoke all three in the same pipe though, you'll get "ghost" flavors.

If you want I can send you a non-porch destroying sampler of the three.

I haven't smoked a lot of different blends but Cornell & Diehl Mississippi Mud and Cornell & Diehl Kajun Kake are two of my favorites so far

I also have a cheapo briar pipe, tool and baccy on the way to me as well, so I was going to ask the same question.

Trying a few samples in each of the different styles English, Virginias etc is the best way to start, and do you have a decent cob such as miss meerschaum or a drugstore knockoff?

Try as many different blends as you can so you can decide what best suits your taste buds. And don't listen to the snobs, there are some good aromatics out there.

Ron I got this.

Frank, chazbo and I have traded before. Yours was a welcoming by me that's a little different. We agreed to a ROAK of a few small samples.

I smoked a great array of tobacco in the first dozen years of pipe smoking and I've always gone back to Black Cavendish for my standard. 35 years after starting to smoke the pipe regularly, I'm still smoking black cavendish, tho I spend much more time smoking cigars in the last several years. I've burned out many a corn cob and even a hickory and now nearly always smoke briars and my pipe brand of choice is the EA Carey, with the magic inch (it really reduces bite and moisture).

A few others that seem to fit into my likes:

Hearth & Home Anniversary Kake (Perique & Virginia blend)
Hearth & Home Freight Train (Burley, Cavendish, Dark Fired Kentucky, Perique & Virginia blend)
Seattle Pipe Club Mississippi River (Latakia, Oriental, Perique & Virginia blend)

Hmm.... Why hasn't anyone started a NOOB Pipe trade thread? I have seen the bombing runs by some of the vets here for people just starting into pipes, but I would like to setup a trade and not just get my mailbox blown off the map.
