I really love Haddo's. When I open a tin it is gone in no time. I never seem to want anything else. Are there any similar blends I should try? I want to expand my horizons.

Nothing really close but more of a, “if you like Haddo’s you should also try,” Sixpence. C&D’s small batch The Beast.
That’s all I really got (and one of em isn’t even currently available, sorry).

Hot take here, and probably all the hotter considering my employer, but I find the body and profile of HH Acadian Perique to be somewhat similar. They're definitely different blends, with Haddo's being sweeter and Acadian Perique being more tangy/umami, but I find there's itch that gets scratched in the same way with both blends.

I always appreciate when an employee gives an honest answer such as you’ve done here. I think it speaks volumes about the employer and the employee.

Valle Crucis is unique because of its flavor profile which contains ginger. A very interesting smoke. Haddo's has rum.

C&D USS Mason is similar bur uses brandy, so again, the flavor profile is a bit different. All good blends in my book.

Jeeze, now I'm reluctant to open my tin. Don't want to get hooked on one thing too much. Variety is my delight. My tin has been around a while, should be good.
