I have acquired a nice 6+ inch billiard with an a very tall and deep bowl... inner diameter is somewhat tight... like .75 diameter...
What characteristics should I hope for in a tobacco to give me a terrific smoking experience?
I imagine I could smoke anything in it... I am just looking for a recommendation for what you think might compliment the build of this pipe best.
My instincts tell me I should break it in with some Uhles' crushed white burley (cube cut) or Esoterica Blackpool which is somewhat fine cut. It's typically easy for me to keep these tobaccos lit.
I remember hearing that English blends come more alive in larger diameter bowls like pots and bulldogs...
