New order from SP is on the way (mostly tryouts)

griffonwing · Nov 26, 2014

So, I figured that I would expand my cellar with more variety, so I decided my next purchase would be mostly first-timers, apart from a restock for my Squadron Leader. I figure that after the holidays, I will have more funds to really stock my cellar, and this sampling will help me choose. However, if I end up likeing them all, them I will have a difficult decision.

Some great stuff... I especially enjoy the ODF and the black house. Let me know how the Sixpence turns out; it may need to be added to a future order.

Thanks all
Yeah, I have heard wonderful stuff about ODF and BlackHouse, so I thought I would give them a try. And SixPense reads like a Dickens novel, so I couldnt resist a try.

I've never tried anything from G.L. Pease, so I'd love to hear about your experience.

griffonwing · Nov 26, 2014

I have a few from GLP already. Charing Cross is one of my favorites. I also have Laurel Heights and Barbary Coast, those are good as well. Pease is a company whose blends I really admire. I hope Six Pence lives up to the great reviews.

Fine choices, griff. The only one I would add is Magnum Opus, it's Russ O's personal blend and a wonderful smoke.

Nice Grab. If you like Navigator you should try Sextant.
