What's Going To Be Your First Bowl Of 2014?

[petes03]

Myself, I haven't decided yet, I'm kinda leaning towards Blue Mountain or Mazatec. If I go with one of those, then I'll probably smoke it out of my new Nording "925" Silver Series sandblasted straight billiard. If I go with an aro or a burley, then I'll probably go with my Peterson "03" Aran.
So what are you guys gonna have for a New Years bowl?

Yesterday I bought a tin of Peterson University Flake. I think, I will pop it at midnight and smoke the first bowl of 2014.

I have the day off so I'll probably go look for some coyotes. This always involves my Chacom giant horn and a long smoke. For my first smoke I think I'll try a flake and a 1/2 of university and try the fold and stuff method for the first time.

Finishing off a tin of Gawith, Hoggarth & Co.'s Broken Scotch Flake.

 

[papipeguy]

Something from 2013. I only have about 40 tins open. Will report in the morning.

 

[spartan]

I got 12 different Cigars that I've been itchin to find an occasion for...
But first pipe bowl will most likely be Peter Stockebyes Lux Navy Flake. I can't get enough of it!

At midnight - Star of the East in a Comoy's Blue Riband Straight Grain. Snip of rum on the side, for sure.

 

[mso489]

Probably English, probably Nat Sherman 536, probably in a billiard, but I have no idea

which one. (kashmir, that is one bulldog; be still my heart.)

mso - Nat Sherman's 536 is an excellent smoke. When I first tried it, I wasn't too impressed. Run of the mill English. But last week I popped the lid on a three old Ball jar I had in storage, and BAM! It's aged into a truly magical smoke. A really nice blend!

 

[houndstooth]

I think I will start off the New Year with smoking my Rad Davis blasted Zulu for the first time. I am leaning towards a bowl of Deep Hollow for the first smoke of the year, although Frog Morton On The Town is the other one I'm leaning towards, as I really am finding that I love it. I'm not sure if this means I'm on my way to being an English type of guy, since I've read here that the Frog Morton series are considered by many to be a "crossover" blend.
As for the Rad Zulu, I'm just not sure, yet, if I want to use this pipe for blends with Latakia, or keep it more in the VA realm. Thoughts or suggestions?

Im gonna have a bowl of 2013 christmas cheer in my La Rocca Dulce

 

[plateauguy]

Petersons 2012 Holiday Season in my Peterson Rosslare (love that pipe).

 

[mrenglish]

Either Old Dark Fired or St. James Flake in one of my new Crawford's.

 

[oldredbeard]

I'll certainly start the day with a bowl of Scotty's English Stout in a Bjarne freehand.

 

[johnnyiii]

I only have two to choose from. Drew estates Central park stroll or emmersons capt delight. New pipes and free petersons tin still has not arrived from smoking pipes. It will be a week from Thursday, and I live 7 hours away from them. Sad start to the new year. I will smoke them both in my big ben.

 

[warren]

Ohhh! Bowl of tobacco . . . not BCS. I'm guessing that sometime early in the day I'll carve up a bit of the rope I got last week, rub it out and enjoy a slow pipeful while savoring the aroma of the standing rib roasting in the oven.
