I gave this a lot of thought, and my answer is, “can’t choose.”

Castello perla nera 10 with a saddle stem and Wessex Fragrant virginia.
For today my best of the best is my Paulson billiard and GLP Cairo.
My pipe and best of the best varies from day to day depending on my mood.

Very, very difficult question. The problem is really that I like a lot of pipes equally, as well as blends. These combos would be in a virtual tie:
- Michael Morgason pencil-shank billiard with Best Brown Flake
- Peterson virgin rusticated Aran Canadian with Full VA plug
- BST thin-shank Christmas Dublin with shaved St. James Plug
- BST large bent billiard with Sutliff 507-S
Tommaso Spanu canted red Briar, with capstan Navy Cut ready rubbed. That's what I go to to every morning at 11 after coffee. Total bliss
My Alex Florov pipe with what's left of 55 year old Balkan Sobranie 759. When that's done, it's McClelland's Samovar.
Had you asked a few months ago, i'd have said Frog on a Log in my Stanwell Bordeaux 183 bent brandy.
But that was before I bought a Savinelli Hercules 320EX, and before I tried Presbyterian.
The Frog is still something I save for a special every now and again, but gotta make it last, I only have about one and a half tins left.

After much thought. (Not really) The 1 tobacco would be wilke sailor jack ( current favorite). The pipe would be a peterson house pipe, which I can never seem to win at ebay. LOL ?
I didn't know that, and was wondering if any place did that with pipes. A huge thank you.
Time and tastes do change! Two years ago, I would have said Esoterica Penzance is my deserted island tobacco and a Dunhill 6103 Billiard was my pipe. Now I don't care as much about which pipe I smoke as long as it's straight, fits in my chops well, smokes well and is ascetically pleasing to me. I would probably choose GH&Co Dark Birds Eye or Rum Flake for the tobacco.
