[QUOTE="Dorchester, post: 501809, member: 4139"] Howdy, friends. Just getting into the gentlemanly art of pipe-smoking, here. I ordered one of those Big Ben starter kits off of P&C and picked up a couple MMs from the local head shop. Very quickly moved from pouch to tin, and have been enjoying the charms of Royal Yacht and Frog Morton. Figure I'll try some VaPers next, and in fact I have some Escudo and Haddo's Delight on the way. (Already, I feel the TAD and the PAD.) What do you fellas recommend for starting a pipe collection? I've enjoyed the tighter draw on the Big Ben, as compared with the cob. Oh, and I impulse-bought a Butz-Choquin Liseuse, which I've thus far only smoked the Frog out of. I feel like I'm losing flavor with the churchwarden, but I'll freely admit I'm too much of a novice to trust my first impression. Is it worth sampling more budget briars? Is the cob a perfectly fine smoking vessel, in terms of allowing one to enjoy all the flavors of the leaf? Do some tobaccos really taste better in a briar, or a cob, or a meer, or in a different-sized bowl? Cheers! [/QUOTE]
