Is Pipe Tobacco Generally Milder than Cigars?

Samuel Gawith - Full Virginia Flake
Samuel Gawith - 1792 Flake
Rattray's - 3 Noggins
Tavern Tobacco - Thunder Road
G.L. Pease - Abington
G.L. Pease Charring Cross
Dan Tobacco - Midnight Ride
Cornell & Diehl - Mississippi Mud
Cornell & Diehl - Briar Fox
Butera - Kingfisher
McClelland - Dominican Glory Maduro

Hey, Johnnny!!! Good to see you. I agree 100%, you have been trying some very, very light tobaccos. Of course, if you are smoking your pipe after a heavy cigar, then you aren't going to taste much.

I like a number of the blends on this list.
