Balkan Baldio in a CAO Bekler meerschaum.
Most of my best Petersons are older ones though I must say the 4ABs are wonderfully crafted. In fact, Peterson pipe quality has improved overall in the last three years, but nothing beats a pre-Republic.I'm also finding that my Peterson system pipes are giving better smokes of blends already tried in other pipes. They smoke down to ash fairly easily and give better flavors. Mine are older estates.
I'm still on the lookout for one of those pre-Republic pipes. I'm very thankful to have been able to find the 302, 301 and 309 systems that I have. If i can find a deal on a 4AB, I'd get one.Most of my best Petersons are older ones though I must say the 4ABs are wonderfully crafted.

I find they definitely smooth out the rough edges of some blends. Help with tongue- & lip-bite, too.I'm also finding that my Peterson system pipes are giving better smokes of blends already tried in other pipes. They smoke down to ash fairly easily and give better flavors. Mine are older estates.
