I have not ordered from them, but what I have seen and heard sounds like they have as good of a grip on those blends, close to the original

Does anyone know what was actually smoked in the films? And if it was a custom blend, does anyone know who blended it?

While it would be nice, I don't think it's true. Waiting for an answer from a friend of mine who was in the film.

My info on Hobbit Weed was mostly Cherry and Vanilla mixed. I don't think Prince Albert Cherry Vanilla would do. There was a tobacconist, now out of business, who did give his recipes to someone. I believe his shop supplied the LOTR troops. Total speculation coming: I thought the tobacconist's name was similar to Tilbury, Tewksbury, or something. If anyone has an old Pipes & Tobacco Magazine, the one with Astin on the cover may have the info.

He's a good guy from about all I have seen and read of him. Even though he's not biologically Astin's son he considers him one of his fathers, similar to the way I am/was with my step-father

Is he a pipe smoker? Tell him we liked him in Goonies! (Just kidding - I always think it's funny when people praise actors/musicians for things they did many years ago, or lesser roles. I think it would be hilarious to meet Susan Sarandon and say, "I loved you in Rocky Horror", or Dustin Hoffman "You were great in Kung Fu Panda 2.") Seriously though, he was great in Stranger Things.

Unless I'm mistaken, LL was asking what blend was used on set in the LOTR movies. I think you're referring to the blending components of Hobbit's Weed?
