So, let's say you were going someplace special to you for a year to be doing something that was very enjoyable to you. You are limited to five blends of tobacco only to smoke to your heart's content. What would you bring that you won't tire of?
Me, in no special order -
1. OGS
2. PS LNF
3. Stonehaven
4. Old Gowrie
5. ODF

Frog Morton- On The Town
Esoterica- Dunbar
Duhill- Ready Rubbed
10 Till Midnight
A good solid Burley blend- Probably CH or CM.
Last two were in close contention and could even be considered interchangeable with
H&H-Black House
And

Let's see now 1. Chestnut 2. Sweet Cask 3. Chatham Manor 4. A va/bur, Burley forward, 5. A va/bur/per, Burley forward Then rotate This is really the best list here. The top three basic codger matches. The bottom two burley forward. If this were my list I might be able to afford those pantyhose for me.. ooops, I mean the wife. Instead, like Diogenes seeking an honest man I searched and searched. With those in mind, you might want to try Five Brothers. Only in pouches, but the cost per ounce is about the same as the matches |

Ok, this is damned tough, but (no order):
SG Kendal Plug (has a little more complexity than BBF, IMO)
Motzek Strang (but it has become one of those "unobtanium" blends)
Peretti No. 8 Slice
HU Director's Cut
C&D Regents Flake (but I need to try Temple Bar again after opening one).

Besides man, you already listed your favorite tobaccos in your profile! Anyway, this thread will probably resurface in the future. Relax, smoke a pipe or something. Thanks for giving it a try though. |

My choices refer to tobacco stashes that I've had for some time in my cellar and in the rotation whirligig; some of these products may have changed in quality over time, either by supply issues for newer batches or by aging of the older supply in my cellar.
Park-Lane Red Paramour
Park-Lane Connoisseur's Flake
McClelland Tudor Castle
McConnell's Scottish Cake
Solani 656 Aged Burley Flake
