A buddy wants to try pipe smoking

x2 on the butternut burley

A good aro with no tongue bite.

If he is looking to get a couple of baccys to try, I would get the following:

1. Butternut Burley
2. GL Pease Westminster or Samuel Gawith Squadron Leader (an english).
3. Rattrays Hal O The Wynd (Virginian)
4. AC Peterson Escudo (Virginia/Perique)

The above would give him a decent selection of the kinds of baccy out there. As an added bonus, the aforementioned baccys are all easy to smoke and have little to no tendency to bite the tongue.

If he is really wanting to get in to it, get him on here and signed up for our Newbie Sampler Trade for pipe tobac.

Oh, and along with the Cob (get only Missouri Mercham), get some pipe cleaners (the fluffy ones) and a Czek pipe tool.

pipesandcigars.com will have everything he needs.

Good luck!
