I've been smoking for a year or so now but really, the only tobacco I ever buy are different blends from my local tobacconist. I've tried numerous aromatic blends; vanillas, cherries, and some nondescript sweet cavendish blends. I think it's about time to finally try some brand name tins everyone raves about but I need a starting point. Anyone have suggestions on a blend to start with?
New blend ideas?

I always refer to tobaccoreviews.com
They have thousands of blends with multiple reviews.
Rattray Hall O' the Wynd is great
Frog Morton is great - a touch of Latakia
GL Pease makes loads with latakia & perique
I would suggest sampling some good vapers... Trying a few here & there is half the fun!
And because everyone's tastes differ, finding something that you really enjoy is so gratifying & worth the few dissagreeable blends that we all innevitably endure.

They make their own blends in the shop and you have to call to place your order I believe. Sweet tea, Vanilla cream or chocolate cream I think are good too I have never smoked any of these but here is the guy that recommends them:
