I havent been smoking as much...
I have a similar issue, especially with latakia blends, plus some pretty bad bite with VAs. Take a break, thats what I do anyhow, you will come back and enjoy it again. It is more of a lifestyle, rather than a habit. So, when it becomes habitual your body lets you know...IMO...- octavius

Going Shopping... Latakia Blends
On Saturday I am going to my local B&M. I want to expand my Latakia collection; I already have some Penzance, Nightcap, and the Frog series. I was thinking about some Dunhill London Mixture, SG Commonwealth, or maybe Pembroke. Comments??? Suggestions???- octavius

Favorite English...
I have only begun to dive into Penzance... It is great, but I am only into my first tin, and I cannot rightly put it above my beloved FOTT. My decision might change... or not... let you know after a tin or two more.- octavius

Favorite English...
I know that there has to be a similar thread, but here I go anyhow... What is your favorite, all-time, desert island, English tobacco? For myself, it is Frog Morton on the Town. Perfect combination of sweet and smoky latakia, like a campfire marshmallow. *edit*- Moved to Pipe Tobacco Discussion...- octavius
