Which Pipe Should I Smoke Tomorrow?

[captainsousie]

If you want more information, and a list of tobaccos that will go with the pipe, please go to this thread. Otherwise, here's the synopsis. I get out of a 14 day quarantine tomorrow and get to smoke again.

The pipes:

• An MM cob with a forever stem...not much more to say about that one.
• A Fairchild Lumberman. Ugly but a hell of a smoker. Group 4-5-ish.
• A Barling's Make exexel billiard. Great smoker but it's big...no full bowl of SG Black XX in that one.
• One, or both, of my Stanwell Harlekin pipes. Tiny bowl but good little smokers and easy to break down and clean.

Let's see how the recommended pipe and tobacco get along shall we?

I vote for all of the above after 14 days of quarantine. Congrats on surviving.

Thanks all. And yes, by Saturday night all of them will have been smoked at least once.

I'd prefer the Barling.

I am waiting for the poll that says something to the effect that "I have been wearing the same pair of underwear throughout my quarantine. Which pair should I select from my drawer when I get home!". This approach is far superior to the 'Yes' or 'No' cube and may even improve on having a wife to assist with these decision making minefields you are confronted with on a daily basis.

The one with Carter Hall in it. The New Cob. You’ll be feelin great.

What do I Win?

Can't vote. I don't see Peterson.

I'd start with that huge Lumberman full of your favorite, then a Harlekin full of a Lakeland.

Now that you're warmed up, break in the cob, then wrap up with a classic blend in the Barling.
