Looking to try a pipe

[jjmitchem]

Since I am deployed in Iraq for the next year, I am thinking about trying a pipe.

I saw some Mearcham pipes at one of the larger bases when we came in, but I don't know when I'll get back down to them. I am at a remote FOB on the Iranian border.

So, where is a good place to order a pipe and tobacco? and what should I look for? I love cigars and especially the darker bolder ones, but I would like to try something different with a pipe.

Any advice would be great

Thanks

Jim
