Default Re: Cigar-like Pipe blend?

So, do any of you pipe smokers have some suggestions for me? I almost exclusively smoke English blends, for the simple reason that I have not broadened my horizons to Va or Va/Pers that much.

Thanks!

Although I'm new to the pipe world. Here are some of my favorites so far that have great flavor:

Dan Tobacco/CAO - Hamborger Veermaster
Rattray's - Hal O' The Wynd
Samuel Gawith - Full Virginia Flake
Gawith & Hoggarth - Dark Flake Unscented, bulk. (It'll knock you on your butt .... but it has great flavor!)
Mac Baren - Dark Twist Roll Cake
Esoterica - Stonehaven

Dunhill's Early Morning Pipe is a spicy Oriental blend, if you can get your hands on some.
