== Tasting Pipe Tobaccos ==  
=== Pipes and Certain Tobaccos ===
It is often said by pipe smokers that they will dedicate certain pipes to certain tobaccos. This makes some sense in that tobaccos do leave some residual taste in any pipe they are smoked in. Many of us will not go that far, but might dedicate pipes to certain genre's of tobaccos. Virginias for instance. Often one will not smoke Latikia blends in their pipes dedicated to Virginas.
 
Another area of interst is that certain pipes seem to smoke better with certain tobaccos, certain genre's or certain cuts. Along those lines, Tarek Manadily has written an interesting articale called [[Pressed Tobaccos and Flake Pipes]].
