Tried it years ago as an alternative to cigars over the Winter when it's too cold to stand outside and smoke for an hour. The experiment didn't last long. Perhaps I didn't have the right tobacco, but I felt like the smoke and flavor compared to a cigar was VERY lacking. Pipe tobacco smells great, but it seems like the better the aroma, the more dull the flavor. I still love the smell of a pipe, but I don't think it's for me.
