Like the title says, is there any pipe tobacco that would somewhat match any of the Drew Estate Acid cigar line?

Skeeter, Acid cigars are very specific (and I fully admit in public and for the World Wide Web that I like them). They are like the cigar equivalent of aromatic pipe tobacco. I have played around and found hat while not a complete match, the Dan Tobacco, Sweet Vanilla Honeydew, is similar in my wheel house. I smoke few aromatics, but I very much enjoy SVH and it fits that same niche as Acid cigars for me at least. YMMV.

I had this EXACT same thought yesterday. I told my buddy about pipe tobacco and he watched a video about Drew Estate Tobacco (which I told him doesn't exist any more). And then I thought to myself, is there a pipe tobacco with same notes as the ACID line (which I love as well)?
Npod, I trust your tobacco choices, as I have found I have similar tastes to yours. I think I might need to try the SVH sometime soon!
Looking forward to what others think about this as well!

That is a slippery slope. I am far from a tobacco reviewer. But I do love tobacco in many forms and I still maintain a good cigar humidor at home.
Keep in mind, SVH does not, in anyway shape or form, taste like an Acid cigar. However, I too was on a quest to find a similar pipe tobacco to this cigar blend and I find that SVH strikes a good "balance" of flavor/topping/casing while maintaining the Virginia tobacco forward flavor.
I also like Rattray - Exotic Orange (a.k.a. Exotic Passion) as well as Mac Baren - Modern Virginia Flake. Both have that balance in blending of flavoring/aromatic/casing like Acid cigars but stay true to the underlying tobaccos.
