Favorite English...

[octavius]

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.

It's FMOTT for me too.

 

[flat4driven]

Northwoods so far.

Another vote for FMOTT.

 

[rickpal14]

Had my first bowl of FMOTT last week and my vote is.............
FMOTT!!!

Penzance. There is nothings else like it. I can only describe it as creamy and earthy with a distinct deep taste that I have never found in any other blend that I have tried. Next up would be McClelland Blue Mountain. My daily bread was Dunhill 965 for years, and I still enjoy it from time to time.

 

[markw4mms]

+1 For Penzance, and Blue Mountain!

Commonwealth.

I will do this in what I think is lightest to heaviest Mcclelland makes Frog Morton On The Town,and British Woods.They also make a bulk tobacco that I like #2045.If you like a pretty heavy Latakia blend Penzance is just about perfect.

Penzance......period

What does an English blend taste like? I've been skeptical to try one because I'm not sure if I'd like it since everyone says its an acquired taste.
What I have tried is:

-Captain Black (white)

-Prince Albert (Cherry/vanilla)

-McCranies red ribbon (virginia)
If I had a favorite english I'd chime in!

 

[dburrows]

I don't know about acquired taste... I seemed to take to English blends more than any other right away.
That being said, right now it's Magnum Opus. Love Westminster. Adding FMOTT to the list to purchase as we speak though

 

[pipetrucker]

What does an English blend taste like?

What does chocolate taste like? What does pizza taste like? You have to try it find out.

 

[hobie1dog]

Coin surfers: you have SO many blends to try it is overwhelming

 

[xoibsurferx]

I agree it is very overwhelming. There's millions of blends out there and I walked into McCranie's about to fall over when I saw how many different types of blends there are.
Sorry to hijack your thread! I'll just have to buy a tin and try it out sometime!

 

[hobie1dog]

So you live near Charlotte?

 

[xoibsurferx]

Lets see... stranded on a desert island... can only have one English..... that's easy. Kate Beckensale!
Frog Morton on the Bayou is tied with Frog Morton on the Town for me.
