    I have been known to enjoy both a cigar and a pipe. Since this asked about pipes, though - I have a meerchaum and a Peterson bent that are both very nice. Then I have 1-2 pipes that are of the "nearly disposable" drug store variety.

    I like the latakia blends myself, though I also like vanilla (if I'm in the mood for something scented).

    Quite a few pipes here. Mostly old Dunhills, S. Bang's, and Chonowitz's. I don't smoke much anymore, but enjoy Old Ironsides, Balkan Saseini, and Penzance.

    Exclamation NO Cigarettes Allowed

    I prefer the Dutch cigars myself, but I don't smoke that often.
    My pipe sees different use.

    I don't smoke a pipe ( well maybe only on vacation in Amsterdam ) but I roll my own smokes and use some nice flavoured tobacco leaf .. IMHO you'd be hard pushed to beat Dutch Halfzware shag .. all but a few of the curious old English tobacco's are very hard to come by ..... .....

    Garry,
    How far are you from Laphroaig on Islay? How about Tallisker on Skye? Careful with your answers as I may show up on your doorstep one afternoon (and never leave ).

    I'm about a 4.5 hr drive from Skye , this used to be my vacation Isle - I used to visit about 3-4 times a year . I've taken the Talisker Distillery tour . I'm not sure about Islay as I haven't visited there .... Incidentally both Whiskies you mention are very "peaty" some may say harsh but each to there own .. I like some of the more mellow malts like Macallan

    keep this quiet , Im not a great Haggis eater .. I much prefer simply shooting them
