No this isn't your top 5 tobaccos of all time, etc. This is based off the movie High Fidelity where they sit around making up top 5 lists. So lets see some lists from all of you. Create a new one, improve on someone else's, etc. Anything goes really.
I will start off with a toughie. Top 5 tobaccos to smoke at a Funeral.
Dan Tobacco Devils Holiday
Cornell & Diehl White Lightning
Kramers Father Dempsey
McCranines Hells Gate
Hu Tobacco China's Heaven
I actually thought this would be a breeze but it was difficult. I had to use google to even finish the list.

I've never known ANYONE to smoke at a funeral! You folks do things differently than I was brought up to do ! Its a top 5 list - like a make believe list. The list ties in with the subject. For example: Top 5 tobaccos you would smoke while fishing: Trout Stream, Missippi River, Kingfisher, Frog Morton Across the Pond and Scotty's Salmon River. Trout Stream = has a name of a fish in it and stream you fish from in it. Mississippi River = river in the name where can catch fish. Kingfisher = A bird that eats fish. Pond = Fishing Pond. Salmon = fish River = where you catch fish. Does that make sense? Sorry I am not very versed at explaining things. Someone else help me here. Maybe a tobacco out there with Fisherman in it, or rod or pole or bait, etc. |

It is just for fun = play on words etc.
I enjoy the movie High Fidelity and they do something similar with songs. Top 5 songs to play at your funeral, top 5 breakup songs, etc.

Edgeworth High Grade Slices (out of production)
Motzek Strang (out of production)
Brown Bogie (spotty on availability)
Christmas cheer (out of production)
Peter Heinrich's Curly Block (scarce)
Should my ticket get punched early, I charge you all with the responsibility of acquiring enough to fuel the pyre.
