Which Condor Cut

They are all good. I enjoy the RR and the Plug personally. The flake is great also, but I like the plug better than the flake, and RR when I don't want to "fuss".
All forms are heavenly and Condor has become a must have on hand smoke for me, great change of pace. I fight myself not to smoke it constantly since its not readily available.

Only tried the RR, but it is one of my favorites, might be my all time favorite if I was forced to choose.

Ah the struggles of a U.S. condor lover. I feel the pain also.

Brass, I thought you were located in the US? If so, you don't have to worry about the VAT.

Just don't go for the Condor Blended, (formerly Condor Mild) If you don't believe me, just ask condorlover1!

Yep it is totally rancid!

I've smoked all three, but only 25g for the RR and flake. But in any case I love plug, so that's what I've bought.
I find all manner of oddities about Condor production and availability. As I understand it the plug and RR are produced by Gallaher in Ireland, which also has its ghosts, as this once strong house used to manufacture much more tobacco and are now down to a few. One after another the major Irish production sites have closed; if I had to guess why I'd guess Irish wages and the willingness of corporations to relocate anywhere to reduce wages. Next is production only of the Loose Cut to Spain. It doesn't make sense to me that one cut is moved to another country while two others remain at Gallaher; and this cut cannot be sold in Ireland. Next is availability. There are many tobacconists selling it, but not nearly as many as you would think given its strong European following. Of those selling plug, I only found Peterson, James Fox and the Pipe Divan willing to ship to the US.
