Balkan Sobranie dropped at P&C. It's pricey though. I paid $18 at tobbacopipes 2 weeks ago. $25 at P&C.

Got a nice tin of it from Ron the other day...had to rehydrate it a little. Love the smell once it rehydrates. Good smoke if you can get it.

A bit pricey, considering you can purchase Arango Balkan Supreme much cheaper and many enjoy the blend.

For almost 30 years I smoked what to me, was the real "Sobranie", their 759. It has gone away but you can experience what it was like with Arango's Balkan Supreme. I was never a fan of the white tin, not enough flavor for me! JMHO

Several years ago, I didn't make my way through my first tin of this one. I don't get the love but tastes differ.

I will order some of the Arango's Balkan Supreme and give that a try. The only tin of Sobranie I have opened is 7 years old. I loved it.

Hearth and Home Black House is worth trying and I usually always have some in stock.
I can’t compare it to B S but it’s a very good blend.
I think the bulk was better but tins are good.

759 was a great blend. I cannot abide the Germain's reissue of Sobranie White. I just want to hurl at the smell of it.
