I would think with all the great minds here their would be a list of the top 5 or 10 tabacco, or whatever. Even if you broke it down to blends like oriental, aromatic and burly. I know everyone taste is different but you would think it could get close. Just what i was thinking at this time, I do that shite when i smoke

I could give a new top 5 almost every week. What he said. My tastes change with the wind. This week Burlier Morning Pipe tops the list. I'm on a Burley kick. Have been for about two months. Before that it was various oriental forward lat blends. Summer time was VAs and VaPers. It's seasonal for me. Favorites right now? Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut. Esoterica Peacehaven. Peretti Tashkent. Sutliff Virginia Slices. Five Brothers. Dark Bird's Eye. Rich Dark Honeydew. Bengal Slices White. Six Pence. There are more.

Just buy a different kind each month and you will learn what you like. Then there is Tobaccoreviews.com. You can get exactly what you are looking for, but you still won't "know".

I tend to stick to one for a few weeks or months before changing though I've got over 100 blends cellared. Been on a big English Chocolate kick for a little over a week now.

I could give a new top 5 almost every week. I have the same problem. Except I feel like Nightcap would be somewhere in there with every single one.

GLP, Rattrays, Solani you know what you ae getting and the leaf is top notch. I could mention the Unicorn farts that are almost impossible to get at times but that would defeat the purpose. You can collect and cellar these now, yes now would be a good time.

I never list an unavailable tobacco in my top ten. However my top ten is generally a moving target. Now if you say top ten of all time, all bets are off.

My top 10 would be starting with butternut burly and Candy corn the rest of it can vary from aros like Cinnamon roll, Killington, B.B. Alamo and of course the various lat blends...Penzance is nice as well as Plum Pudding Special Reserve, Bengal Slices and a host of others.

I'm all over the place with what I smoke but have been on a burley kick lately. The only constant I have is I have at least one bowl of Presbyterian every day.

any list of five for me would change each week...I could pick five Peace tobaccos with no problem, I always have C.B. Royal around ,and while I love it, I haven't smoked it in some time; it would be on any top aro list for me however. I've at least five McCelland tobaccos in the celler that would surely make another list. It just goes on and on.

Like brothers roadsdiverged and Cramptholomew, my top 5 tobaccos continually change. The past month, I’ve been smoking mainly burley blends such as : WCC Deluxe Crumb Cut, Amphora Burley, C&D Pegasus, D&R Two Timer and ERR Match. Occasionally I’ve smoked H&H BlackHouse and Esoterica And So To Bed. As the weather gets warmer, I tend to smoke more Virginia based blends.

I finally had a bowl... I THINK it could now fit in most of my top 5s. After a few more bowls I'll KNOW for sure.

Royal Yacht is among my most frequent go-to blends... it's namesake is most fitting.

Taste is so subjective. What one person likes another hates so my top ten others will say, what is he thinking 🤔
