Cool. Thanks for the info. I may have to consider a pipe for an occasional quicker smoke than cigs usually require.

In my experience a pipe bowl takes about as long as a cigar, i dont like to stop in the middle of a bowl... there are smaller bowl pipes out there but they tend to get really hot. I sit down with a pipe when I have time to go through the ritual of Filling, Tamping, Lighting etc.

Cuba has pipe tobacco labelled as picadura granulada. About half of the LCDH in Havana have them. Partagas is common and some stores may still have La Ecsepcion from pre-'99. Available in 1/2 and full pound bricks- roughly 4CUC and 8 CUC respectively.
