Confused new pipe smoker........Too Mild

[Curly Cut]

now, there are some blends out there that are strong in the "tobacco flavor" that you said you don't want....

if i were you, i'd take a break from cigars (they probably need to rest anyway), and just see what the different genres taste like after a bit...
not a ploy to get you to switch to only pipes, i have nothing against cigars. but to give pipes a chance to show you all that they have to offer, your palate needs to recover from the assault on your taste buds that most cigars provide.
similar to setting up your cigar lineup for a herf... you don't start off with the strongest and possibly harshest stick, then you won't get much out of the next couple that day...
if you smoke a handful of La Gloria Cubana Series R's every day, you won't taste 99% of all pipe tobaccos for a few weeks. you could probably wipe your ass with your tongue and just think it was jello pudding.
