Wow just tried this for the first time, and I wish they sold it in bulk, just got 1.5 oz pouch but might have to get a can next time, a little pricey to replace my mainstay.... whats your favorite whiskey blend?

I too enjoy Borkim Riff Bourbon. I guess my favorite is Erin Go Braugh, another pouch tobacco.

Borkum riff... Still haunting from my teenager years. As a generally everywhere available whiskey blend, Special Dublin is better in my opinion.

Borkum Riff is a kind of love/hate blend. People like it or don't, decisively. I do think the larger tins/tubs of blends you like are a good back-up supply if things get heavy handed on tobacco sales and regulation.

I tend to keep my whiskey in one hand and my pipe in the other!

But John Marrs is one for me

I too am not that fond of borkum riff. I guess my favorite otc aromatic is Prince Albert - Soft vanilla. I rarely get it, and have found no replacement for it. Somebody suggested Captain Black white ... I don't know, but not that curios to give it a try.

I'm a rum man myself, taken in bowls of the glorious Black Frigate.

Smokers pride whiskey is good and the second hand smoke gets positive reviews.

I'm more picky about tobacco than i may sound, but I do give points to a blend for meeting demand and wide distribution. Borkum Riff and other OTC/codger blends meet those criteria.

Don’t they still sell Borkum Riff in tubs as well as pouches, not bulk, but close.

This discussion ALMOST makes me want to buy a pouch of Borkum Riff Bourbon, a blend I smoked a lot of back in the mid-1970s.
