Well, tonight I've sent off my order for new pipe tobacco, and am curious what are my BotLs ordering and smoking.
There are others that I really wanted to order, but my book keeper was already screaming at me. Here are some of the ones that almost made the list:
- 4noggins - Bald Headed Teacher (4 oz.): I heard this is a good one. I think it's an English blend. It received a lot of good reviews on TobaccoReviews.com.
- Pipes and Cigars - 4th Generation Family Reserve (3.5 oz.): Originally this was offered as a "free shipping if you buy this" and I did hear a lot of folk say that it's good, so I kept it even though P&C is now offering free shipping for orders over $50.
- Pipes and Cigars - Lane Limited 1-Q (4 oz.): I don't know much about this one, but I did notice that a lot of folk really liked it. So, I'll give it a try.
- Pipes and Cigars - Cornell & Deihl Epiphany (4 oz.): I read somewhere that this was relatively close (?) to what Albert Einstein smoked, so I thought it would be fun to try it.
- Pipes and Cigars - Hearth & Home Daybreak (2 oz.): I really like this one. I enjoy grabbing a cup of coffee and sitting out on my front porch in the morning with this one. I consider myself a ritualist and this one is fun!
- Pipes and Cigars - Sutliff Black Cordial (4 oz.) I have been smoking Paladin Black Cherry, but would like to find a better quality. I had plans to purchase Lane's Very Cherry (?), but it ran out. So, I am trying this one.
- Pipes and Cigars - Lane Limited Black Raspberry (4 oz.): I really really love Ole Shenandoah Appalachian Berry (aka Summer Berry Brandy), but this critter is over $8.00 for less than 2 ounces. Would LOVE to find the same (or something similar) for a cheaper price!
There are others that I really wanted to order, but my book keeper was already screaming at me. Here are some of the ones that almost made the list:
- The Country Squire's Middle Earth series of tobaccos. There are six blends of pipe tobacco that The Country Squire sells: 3 are aromatic and 3 are non-aromatic. I really wanted to try them, because I am a huge Tolkien buff! Anyone familiar with these?
- Hearth & Home Caramel Apple Pie - I am becoming a fan of H&H blends, and I am super stoked on finding an apple aromatic. When I saw this one, I really wanted to get some. I guess I need to save some blends for July.
- Lane Limited Very Cherry - I read somewhere (TobaccoReviews.com?) that this one was the very best cherry flavored tobacco. It was out of stock by the time I could order it. :'(
- 4noggins.com Hobbit Weed - Once again, I'm a Tolkien fan-boy.
- Lane BCA - Also heard that this one is really good, but had to take it off due to budget constraints.
