Hi, I have smoked cigars for a while, but never a pipe.

As far as taste goes, which is better? That may sound like a novice question, and thats because I am one lol.

What I mean is if you buy a flavored cigar, you get a little bit of taste. But, are their flavored pipe tabaccos?

@shaneme5 I think cigars are easier to get into quickly, but i've found pipes to be much more interesting and tasty to me. i also have always been a big fan of the accessories and preparation and process (both preparing you tobaccos, and keeping them lit) and find that it's like a smoking man's meditation.  I dont get quite as much of a contemplative relaxation from a cigar as i do a pipe. I also never crave or miss cigars, but i do miss the ritual of smoking a pipe.

That Dominican Maduro by McClellands sounds interesting - cheers for your thoughts on those blends :)
