Top 40 selling tobaccos on P&C

Agreed.

Lane 1Q is one on my bucket list. If I ever to go USA I'm picking myself up a tin or pouch of that (and Carter Hall too).

Aromatics are the pipe world's top sellers. Without aros, this boat don't float. After thirty years of smoking, I find aromatics to be at the top of my smoking list.

I'm surprised by how different it is from Smokingpipes where Escudo and Nightcap are perpetual top 10 and here they're in the 30s at best. I wonder if it's due to them separating bulks from tins in their top-seller lists?

Top selling by number of ounces I presume.

roadsdiverged: "I wonder how many shops order those in big bulk to resell?"
briarbuck: "Looks like they focus on being a bulk shop."

roads and buck may have a point here.

unfortunately that would send me over the customs limit.

#1 should be Out of Stock. So subtle it seems like your not even smoking tobacco.
#2 would be Wrong Thing Shipped, often a varied and surprising smoke.

Just as a lot of people drink Bud Lite

What is it with Americans and light beer? Bud Lite has failed here twice before but it's really being pushed once again. I've heard that ya'll even have Corona Light up in the US! So, what's it appeal?

Because the sheeple and lemmings believe the advertising that light beer is "diet beer", Because some are ignorant enough to think light beer means they won't get drunk as fast. Because they drink what is "trendy" and not what is good. 

Thankfully, there are enough of us who remember what good beer is and there are a lot of beer drinkers who have discovered small brewery and craft beers. 

As for Corona, in my opinion, Corona is not worth the money people are paying for it. I've been to Chile, Peru and both sides of Mexico and have sample a wide variety of beers from those areas. I prefer Modelo Negra and Dos Equis Amber. Given a choice between Pacifico and Corona, I will drink the Pacifico first.

People will drink whatever is advertised. Why do companies spend millions of dollars for a 30-second ad during the SuperBowl showing a hot chick in a bikini riding down the beach on a white horse with a bottle of crappy Zima in the corner?

It's because more than a million people will see that ad and go and buy some crappy Zima.

Old Milwaukee used to be advertised, and it cost the same as Budweiser and was on the same shelf. They'd show the lobster fishermen back on the dock with their lobster and an Old Milwaukee. As soon as they quit advertising it, it dropped to the bottom shelf with the Shaefer Lite and cost as little, and folks then thought of it as crap beer. The only thing that changed was the advertising.

Miller Lite has ads aimed at Mexicans, so when you go to a Mexican neighborhood you'll see lots of Miller Lite.

People will drink whatever is advertised.

LOL. I don't mind lite beer at all - I drink what I like. That said, I don't think I'd drink Guinness Lite if it ever came out...but then again, I don't think the Irish would ever produce Guinness Lite in the first place. 

Im definitely not a connoisseur of beer or tobacco. I rarely drink a beer, but when I do its usually Coors. I drank a Guiness once in Thailand, of all places, and it was pretty good. And I had a German beer brewed in Namibia while I was in Botswana once that I really liked. It was called Windhoek. But mostly, not a big beer drinker. I tried a craft beer once, Rolling Rock or something. Didnt like it too much.

Prefer my pipe tobacco usually pretty much in the middle of the spectrum (think Carter Hall et al), and my cigars dark and strong (Cohiba Nicaragua, Maduro Blacks etc). And coffee? I like my coffee so strong we get into a fist fight every morning and I gotta whip its a@@ into subjection before I can drink it.

Its just personal taste, I guess.
