Lane HGL

What a pleasant surprise this is. Just trying out the HGL I received in the P&C goodie bag I was opening the ziplocks and taking a "whiff" of each and came upon what smelled of a bit of Latakia. I had not really investigated as I assumed these were all Aro's, Guess not. This could easily be an all day smoke for any Light English smoker.

Bought 5 pounds of it Brother! Talk about a great all day smoke, ya got it...

I started smoking HGL about 15 years ago.I was more than sad when it went off the market.I bought 5 pounds when it became available again.I've got about a pound left,but not for long.

Looking forward to trying it. C&D makes Herman's Own which is a knock-off of HGL, and a pretty good blend, since its demise some years ago. With the "original" back I'll give it a go.

I snen Leonard W. a sample of Crown Achievement as a reference for re-introducing that blend as well as my longtime favorite, Highland, hoping he would consider that blend as well.

You hit it on the head, A great all day smoke. I love the stuff and also order it 5 lbs at a time.

Agreed, HGL reminds me of Frog Morton on the Town, but better and less expensive.

Tho I confess, I have five cans of Frog in the hall closet "cellar".
