RobertL made a recommendation of getting some tobacco from JohnDengler tobacco in MO. https://www.johndenglertobacconist.com/ When I called it was suggested to me to try a sampler pack. four 1oz samples of different blends. I got that and then bought the Mac Baren Scottish mix after doing some reading on a couple of pipe forums and looking at tobacco reviews (kinda like looking a cigar reviews). I have no clue really, as there seem to be a gazillion different blends to choose from. Hope I hit a jackpot as far as my tastes without having to try a tremendous amount of different ones.
If you are a cigar smoker don't go into it thinking cigar, the blends are entirely different based on what I've been reading. I'm about to go smoke my first bowl in the new pipe.

That’s the type/ shape of pipe I would like to get started on. (Same bug crawled up my behind)
How did you decide on tobacco?

Not a cigar smoker but enjoy one here and there. I thought I would like a certain kind of cigar but turns out I like something completely different. (Thought I would like sweeter/ lighter notes but I guess my favs are darker stronger ones)
I am mainly looking at a pipe to enjoy on my way home from work and here and there. So something for a 1/2 hr 1-7 days a week.
I ran into the same issue with cigars, there are just too many to try. I haven’t hated many of them but only one made me come back for more so far. Not a cheap habit though. Hopefully after pipe(s) purchased, this one gets a bit cheaper.
Eta: whats the deal with filtered pipes on smokingpipes? Is it something that doesn’t matter or do you kind of need to use a filter with filtered pipes?
