Gentlemen,
I wanted to introduce myself and say what a privilege it is to be a part of this fine forum. I have been looking at the pages and topics for quite some time now and figured it was time to become an active part of the community. I have smoked a pipe from time to time, but never realized how in-depth this activity could get (I only knew that it smelled and tasted so much better than the Marlboros that I used to smoke). Now I'm deployed (AFG) and a lot of the fellas that I hang out with smoke cigars every night. I've never been a fan of cigars, but I do miss the sweet aroma and taste of some choice tobacco through a nice briar. So, that's what brought me here. I want to use my time here to really break in a new pipe and find my own favorite blends and smoking techniques. So far this forum has been VERY informative. As a result, I am looking to buy a Peterson in the next day or two from Cup O Joes....the only thing I'm waiting on is I'm not sure what tobacco to get. It's takes mail about a week (best case) to get here and I don't want to be stuck with a blend that I don't like due to my lack of experience. I'd love to find something smooth, mild and slightly aromatic that I can smoke in the evenings.
Any suggestions would be great!! Thanks in advance, take care....Eric.
