My Vauen Wood pipe and all the Christmas Cheer I could smoke. You would have to hit me with enough tranquilizer to bring down a bull elephant to "rescue" me from that situation.
Oh, I'm a simple guy, just give me a cob or two, any cob will do. I'll take a tub or two of CH or PA along as well.
No doubt about the tobacco: Cope's Escudo. For the pipe, hmmmm, maybe my small Tonni Nielsen freehand.
I just had a two month sojourn on a Caribbean island and did this as an experiment. I brought my favorite tobaccos but not my favorite pipes.
It wasn't a deserted island but it may as well have been since the only pipe tobacco on sale that I saw was borkum riff.
I brought marlin flake escudo dunhill flake Orlik as well as Robert McConnell Scottish flake and gl pease robusto for the cigar leaf that I thought would go well in the tropics
Plus a jar with ps navy flake and bulls eye.
I brought a nice light weight savinelli and two cobs.
I narrowed it down to the dunhill flake with the McConnells and Orlik close behind.

Fattest apple-shaped Cob possible with the world's supply of Orlik, with SG's Squadron Leader as a real close second.
My pipe would be my SparkysPipes, "Prince of Darkness Poker" pipe because its my best smoking pipe and one of my favorites.
My tobacco would be Seattle Pipe Club's Mississippi River as its currently my favorite tobacco. It also smokes cool and has a long burn which would definitely benefit me if I was on an island.

@petes03 - Its definitely one of a kind. I designed the pipe and the pipe maker did a great job with it. Scott at SparkysPipes is an excellent wood carver and he makes some great pipes.
