No alcohol: I would avoid anything that can damage your body. Obviously alcohol is very toxic to your pancreas and must be avoided at all costs. Smoking carries its own risks. I would recommend an aa group where smoking is not allowed and individual therapy to deal with better coping mechanisms.

Risky: Drinking again could bring on another bout of pancreatitis. Cigars won't.
