I would suggest Dunhills 965 and Charles Fairmorn's lancer slices. If you haven't been smoking a pipe for a long time stay away from Virginia's, they're usually the last type of tobacco a pipe smoker learns to appreciate. I didn't start enjoying them until after about a year, but in that year I smoked only english blends mainly. Lancer Slices has a good sweet barbecue flavor happening. Dunhill 965 also has a barbecue flavor. 4 bowls only you should be able to smoke through it, just give it a good cleaning with pipecleaners dipped in either rubbing alcohol, preferably 99.9%, or you can use bourbon or any high proof spirit. I had a VaPer pipe I had to do a salt and alcohol treatment on and it's still a VaPer pipe, it's just that it had become complete perique overload anything I smoked in it.
