I actually hate Chatham Manor. I find them nothing alike. Lol
Can’t beat a codger blend and a cup
Of coffee. It’s the way many a work day on the railroad, a fishing trip, or a deer hunt started back in the day.
I like SWR/SWRA and coffee

Coffee is my beverage of choice with a pipe…and I haven’t had a tobacco that didn’t match well yet.

I drink so much coffee, I like any tobacco with it really.
For a first smoke of the day I prefer a straight VA, then about 8-9am I'm ready for my VaPer.
But I find a straight VA to be the perfect early morning smoke. Occasionally I'll get a wild hair for a Burley with my coffee, but im pretty set in my habits.
Usually I reach for a Ayelesbury or Wessex flake for my first smoke. If it's a holiday or special day, I'll justify some McCranies first thing. Vauen No 14, 507C and Hogshead also scratch that itch. Season and weather influence my decision to an extent.

Previously I used to drink my coffee mostly with Burleys but then I discovered it goes even better with good Black Cavendish. So now it's predominantly Gawith Hoggarth Kentucky Nougat that accompanies my Jawa.

This is how to start the day at my house.

weirdly don't mix them often. But one a few times I have smoked a pipe with coffee and Key Largo went well with coffee. Both seemed to compliment each other. But surprisingly I found EGR to improve the way the coffee tasted. Actually brought out some of the nuances. However found the coffee did not improve the EGR.
Semois is great with coffee too. Mainly for the fact it could wake the dead. And neither really over powered the other in any noticeable way.

I've smoked a lot of CH with my morning coffee which is always a great combo. Of course SWR/A and Granger are fantastic as well. Really any codgery type burley makes a great pairing with coffee.
Lately I've been starting my morning off with a bowl of D & R Three Sails, a bulk Va shag. It's been pretty darn good too.

Not even in the same ballpark. I can't stand Chatham Manor.
To the OP, whatever I had in my pipe tte night before.
Of the tobaccos in my humble cellar, Borkum Riff Bronze (Bourbon) goes best. Something about Bourbon and Coffee I guess.
The canned answer?, FIVE BROTHERS, brother!
But seriously FB, or any of the Tobac Manil "Semois" offerings, pick one, you can't go wrong with the earthy, floral, nutty, pairing of Burley and black coffee

As already mentioned KBV BMP. I also like to start the day with coffee and a burley. My other favorite is WCC Deluxe Crumb Cut. I’ll mix in an Uhle Crushed White Burley or Perfection Plug as a one off or I need a stronger nic hit to fight through a hangover
This thread is gonna make me buy some 5 Bro's and Semois very soon. I'll add another vote for Pegasus and one for Petersons Perfect Plug.
Bugger it, I'm having a black coffee and bowl of Pegasus right now.

I always have coffee with my pipe. The tobacco just doesn't tasted as good without coffee. 
Right now I'm enjoying some OJK with my coffee, but like so many others have said, pretty much any tobacco pairs well.
I start my day with a cappuccino or two, and don't smoke while drinking the caps. For one, drink time is about five minutes, not the hour(s) you can stretch out black coffee. For another I smoke out side, so my first pipe starts when I walk my dog.
I've been all about Oriental Silk with coffee the past year or so. As a bulk from C&D it's dry enough to just open the jar and scoop. That might not sound like much, but a tobacco I don't have to think about is a great thing when it's my first cup. And the coffee and Orientals compliment each other better than I've ever found in Carter Hall. Sunday Picnic does the same thing but better in every category except ease of loading and lighting.
