Hello to you all, very nice to meet you! My name is Pau, i am quite new in this pipe smoking journey. So far I’ve discovered I like english mixtures and peterson pipes, but I'm up to try anything. I hope i’ll learn quite a lot in here!
Greetings from Catalonia!

Welcome to the group! I find Missouri Meerschaum corn cob pipes to be great smokers and G. L. Pease English blends are very tasty. My current favorite is Westminster.
For now I have a standard 314 rusticated (bought new), an estate standard 314 smooth that i will try tonight for the first time, and a sandblasted black dublin churchwarden, that I don’t smoke much because I think it requires a bit more experience… The bowl is quite thin and i can’t manage to smoke it whithout it becoming unbearably hot!
Oh! I was recomended a Missouri Meerrschaum to get started, and I love it! It was very affordable, it smoked great, and stood very resilient to my over packed, poorly lit, rushed first attempts at smoking. I’ll get another one that I hope I’ll treat better haha.

Welcome!
I second G.L. Pease as a blender of some of the best tobacco around.
If you find aromatics to your taste, I'd suggest the country Squire.
If you haven't tried Arango Balkan Supreme, it's unbeatable- depending on your mood.
There's stuff to learn and friends to make here!

Well I’ll try to put my hands on some then! The tobacco variety at my local shop is quite limited… And as for the aromatics, i am more than willing to give them a chance. My first attempts with aromatics were not great, and I assume it was my fault. The first puffs were amazing, followed by a mess of super hot bowls, constant gurgling and nasty tongue bite… But I’ll learn!
Thanks a lot for your suggestions, i really appreciate!

For an aromatic, I might suggest Rivervoat Queen if you like chocolate.
I already suggested a good one in Arango's offering though. Somebody else should suggest a nice aromatic!
