First Smoke of the Day ?

[marconi]

Today I smoked leftover GH nos27 perique flake .In the warmer months I like to smoke EMP or Charatan First Bowl same thing in my opinion. Always with a large cup of ground coffee.

Normally a Va/VaPer flake for me, unless there's frost on the ground & I'm out walking the dog. Then it's an oriental/Latakia mixture like Exmoor or Maltese Falcon to tingle the nostrils & stop them from freezing up.

In most cases I do prefer having some medium strength Burley forward blends in the morning

I've said it before and I'll say it again......... I love the smell of latakia in the morning.

Especially in the moustache for my...............

What’s everybody’s first smoke of the day? For me, I love a bowl of C&D Mocha with a hot cup of coffee mmmmm.

Navy Flake and French Roast

The combo of coffe and a pipe is a gift. Burley, aro or Virginia, but I can't get my head around Latakia in the morning.

EMP or Presbyterian are normally my first bowls. They seem to taste best with coffee to me personally.

Luxury Twist Flake with Illy Intenso coffee.

I keep a jar of mixture for first smoke, Gold Block with F&T Blackjack in MM cob to go with the first mug of tea. Then Cabbies in my beater and after that, jokers wild, anything goes.

My second favorite smoke is my first of the day behind my last at night. I usually start with something lighter. McConnell’s Oriental, Early Morning Pipe, Mac Baren Balkan, Merde de Cheval, or Skiff. Sometimes I change it up and may smoke Christmas Cheer, Charing Cross, or even Quiet Nights. My rotation is all over the place, but I favor English blends and those at the top particularly go well with my coffee. Often times, I only smoke 2 bowls a day so my first is very important to me.

Hi, thread from 2021!

My first pipe is always after breakfast and coffee, walking in the yard with my dogs. I prefer something flavorful that can handle coffee aftertaste so I tend towards things like Quiet Nights, EMP, Luminare, Windjammer… tasty, strongish, and not needing thought
