Saltz... a cob IS a real pipe. Cobs can be GREAT pipes, particularly with something called Johnny Mocha (which is probably a coffee/chocolate topped burley - which is probably practically perfect in a cob).

You are on a very good track. Many pipe smokes have said, "It only gets better from Johnny Mocha on and Johnny Mocha ain't half bad."

Seriously. I got some kind of jones for a burley/coffee blend called Gettysburg. I usually hate aromatic tobaccos but this stuff just makes me feel great. Anyhow, point is, it NEVER tastes or smells better than from a $4.00 cob. Go figure.
