Default Your dream baccy



Hi all,
dunno if this has been asked before.
Like most of you I've been smoking the pipe for x years, sampled 100s
of baccies, had unforgetteable smokes with some of them, but still
haven't found what I'm really looking for. So I thought about a
wishlist to my favorite blenders.
The most wanted:

GLP
- Barbary Coast Flake !
- flake versions of BS and Ravens Wing
- a new dark Virginia flake with a wee bit of Perique
.... where are the flakes Gregory ?

Sam G./G&H
- more balkan flakes, Syrian based, lakeland style

Dunhill (hopeless)
- Aperitif, 965 and NC flake
- the excellent pre90 NC and 965

McBee
- the old version of Navy Flake minus that annoying McBee topping
.... but then I'm just dreaming, zzz

How about yours ?

Karsten

The Availability of all good VA/Perique tobaccos in the USA!

Namely A&C Petersens...

And the original recipe Three Nuns would be great... I bought/traded
another tin, and it wasn't even CLOSE....

Thanks again, Sean Chercover! (For the best pipesmoking experience
I've ever had!)

Some great old friends now gone (above wishlists). From here, most all
the C&D/GLP blends with Syria latakia....and those with Cyprus. 965
back when it DID kick ass, never crazy 'bout the original 3-Nuns but a
good x-over. And fer sure BalkanSobraine and another one long
gone......StateExpress (don't even remember who manu. it).

Not sure if it qualifies as a strictly "tobacco" wish: I'd like to
have a magic knife that doesn't dull as I cut my plug. Then I'd be
quite content, or find something else to wish for : )

Hear hear on the plug, but I bought one of those tobacco shredders...
(Sweetleaf?) From Mars... LOVE that thing. I use it to rub out my roll
cakes, and flakes... Makes 'em perfect for smoking!

Hello,

I smoke exclusively Virginias. My dream tobacco is a natural/plain
Virginia tobacco with lots of naturally delicious taste that I don't
get tired of it and wich presents a nice and satisfying body to the
smoke.

It doesn't matter if it's a flake or not, after all, I always rub out
my flakes completely to smoke them, but I can't deny I love a tobacco
presented in flake form.

I don't like Perique, so I don't care for it when it's mixed with
Virginia.

Let's hope GLP will be giving us some good surprises with his new
virginias...

Regards,
Adrian
