Your Absolute Hands Down Favourite Tobacco...

Subject: Your Absolute Hands Down Favourite Tobacco... Sat Feb 02, 2008 3:53 pm

We did this over on ASP a few years ago and the hands down favourite from well over 200 of those responding was MacBaren's "Navy Flake"which also happens to be mine too...

What's yours?

Best,
Dock

A simple 50/50 mix of burley and sweetened black cavendish.

Right this moment it'd be GLPease Blackpoint.

Balkan Sobranie Virginian # 10. So scarce that I've smoked only a small bit and likely never will again, but it made such an impression on me that it stands as the best tobacco I've ever smoked, period.

As to currently available blends, hell, I don't know, I'm such a tobacco whore!

All time favorite available or not has to be Blue Boar, now 20+ years gone. My current available favorite is ERRd, which meets most of my taste and burn requirements, and I can get fairley easily.

Judging solely on what I reach for the most often... PS Luxury Twist Flake.
Very Happy

GL Pease Renaissance. But it barely edges out several others.

I guess mine would be Jack's Firehouse Dog. I still have some left and only smoke it on special occasions.

I highly recommend Scott Bundy at www.piperestore.com for all of your pipe cleaning and restoration work.

After revisiting the thread I wanna change to Renaissance, I thought we were dealing with in production easy to procure baccys.

It was GLP Cumberland hands down, but since I can't smoke it now I reach for one of the following depending on my taste buds needs--Brown Clunee, McB Navy Flake, PS Luxury Twist, Briar Fox, Guy's Blue Grass Melody, Long Golden Flake, F&T Cut VA Plug, Larsen's #50 or Bjarne deLuxe. I can't really pick a favorite as I like them all.

This is a tough one, but I have to say GL Pease Odyssey.

I'd have to go with GLP Blackpoint
