So in a variation on a recent theme, I thought I would gather your thoughts on your favorite hybrid blends.
How to define hybrid? Ah, therein lies the challenge. I would define a hybrid as containing at least three different tobaccos, and not being an English/Balkan blend (which would normally contain multiple tobaccos but already has its own specific category), or containing flavored black Cavendish (ie: an aromatic). In other words, blends not easily classified into the typical categories.
So here are mine:
- GL Pease Haddo's Delight
- GL Pease Cumberland
- GL Pease Cairo
- Peterson Irish Oak
- Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique
(And I'll give an honorable mention to GL Pease Barbary Coast) (What can I say.. He has a number of excellent hybrid blends.)
