Have any of you tried smoking a cigar with a pipe?

I wouldn't have considered it but for seeing this picture. It makes sense that it would allow more of the cigar to be smoked, and should reduce any problems from poor technique that would impact on the experience.

Yup, many do. This thread seems to be re-originated every month or two.

Many do that. Only way to smoke a cigar down to a "fine white ash". Lots of threads on this board.

Must be telepathy or something.....just this morning I was wondering if any pipe-smokers ever cut up a cigar into + - 1" sections, and then stuffed these short sections into the bowl of a pipe, possibly even adding a little pipe tobacco around the cigar?
Has anyone crumbled a cigar into their tobacco blends? I don't know a thing about cigars except that they stink. Are there very mild/flavorful cigars that would/could enhance a tobacco blend? I know that some pipe tobacco blends have some cigar leaf mixed into them. Interesting.....

Never done that, but I finish cigars in a pipe. Max Nicotine at the nub. Awesome!

Sorry. I should've searched the forum before posting. I thought it was a cool picture.

I agree the taste of the tobacco in the mouth would be missed Aussiemike. Saving the nub for the pipe seems like a good idea Deathmetal. I am planning to get a cigar in my next online pipe tobacco order, but that may be a month or so. Cigars are a bit out of my price range for normal smoking, almost like being willing to smoke a whole tin in one sitting.

If you were to really get into cigars, there are just as many amazing sales on them as there are pipe tobacco.

Just be careful. The guy in that picture is only 23 years old.

Here are a couple links for threads that discuss that subject Sumusfumus.

I thought cigars were more regulated on the price that they could be sold for Chasingembers, are the sales for all brands of cigars?

Click to expand...

Oh yes! I got a 20 stick Oliva sampler last year during a Christmas sale that included a Xicar lighter for $30. You actually see as many monthly cigar sales as you do pipe tobacco sales! Look up Thompson Cigars, or Cigars International. Many good deals.
