The coffee guys in the next forum down might be able to help you out here. Although I know some of us bleed over into that forum as well.

I glanced over there, started reading on different beans from different farms, different roasters.....and slowly backed out! I can't handle more than one slope at a time.

You double slopers, you have my admiration, and my pity!

Let us know what you come up with, as I am a coffee drinker as well.

I find that coffee can usually overpower the nuances of a pipe. I would usually drink a lighter roasted coffee, like a Guatemalan or Costa Rican if I had coffee with a pipe. But usually with a pipe I would go with tea--less overpowering.

Really up to you though, and what kind of coffee you like.

Like some other bright fellow said, when I smoke and drink coffee, either:
1) the pipe keeps going out; or
2) the coffee gets cold.

I like a pipe and I love coffee, but I have no luck enjoying them at the same once. Try espresso. Fwip! and it's gone, then back to keeping the pipe alive.

Only time I would drink coffee with a pipe is when I am smoking a strong rope and I'll drink any old coffee with a splash of bailey's. I agree though that coffee would overpower the subtleties of a tobacco.

Im with hermit and the others on this one. I have tried enjoying coffee with a pipe, but the flavors and nuances just don't compliment each other all that great. Things get over powering and muddy.

Espresso is the exception. Because you can drink it shot style.

Tea on the other hand, goes great with the pipe. I don't care for green teas, but find black teas to be very satisfying.
