Buy all of them. Out of 309 blends there's bound to be something you like and you can trade those you don't. Just kidding, of course, but I am a big fan of C&D. Let us know what you like to smoke and we can narrow down the list.

Haunted Bookshop, Old Joe Krantz, Pegasus, Shandygaff, Big n Burley, Yorktown, Burley Flakes, all of them especially #1&2, and Epiphany. These are all classic American strong tobacco types with no flavoring. Most all they make is excellent, but these I mentioned are staples and what I believe embody pipe smoking through the ages. Mostly all Bob Runowski blends, as I believe Bob Runowski’s mastery was unsurpassed in blending strong burley mixtures.

Pegasus
Yorktown
Opening Night

Well I ended up going with Haunted Bookshop, Big N Burley, Old Joe Krantz and Byzantium. I was also going to grab a tin of Cult Conspiracy but I got an email after my order went through saying it was out of stock. So I asked for some cross-eyed cricket.
