Wondering which GL Pease blend is your favorite. I've read many good things about these tobaccos and the Old London Series is really appealing to me. I'm a big fan of latakia and dark fired kentucky. I know I'll probably get many recommendations and welcome all of your input. Thanks in advance!

I love the Piccadilly for the daytime and sunshine, and Abingdon for the evening or driving. Those are my two go to's. Both have latakia, no kentucky though.

For Dark Fired, I love the Jack Knife and Triple Play and for Latakia Quiet Nights and Gaslight

Cobguy, thanks for the tips. Jack knife seems right up my alley. Though I'm not sure I'd be into Triple Play as much because I'm not really a perique fan. The others you mention are definitely on my must try list.

Eegads!!! I always have at least one GLP blend in the top 5 rotation since I first learned of him/them... It started with Lagonda several years ago. Then Haddos... then Cairo... then then then then... Right now SixPence sits on one side of the fence and Quiet Nights on the other... with GasLight hanging in for variety, and Triple Play for fun... Oh No! With all this new FDA crap&rigamarrolla and PEEAYs eville Governor back pedaling to wanting 40% tax on premium bakkie products, TAD is beginning to spasm!! I can't choose just one!! Must get them all!!! Then the Standard Bakkie of Peeay Blends!!! I'm doomed!!! Doomed, I say!!

After the FDA regs were announced last week I make a quick list of the tobacco blends I need to stock for the coming zombie apocalypse and found that I really like a lot of Greg's blends. My list (in no particular order) is: Chelsea Morning, Gaslight, Key Largo, Lagonda, Maltese Falcon, Sextant, Sixpence, Meridian, and Westminster with my current favorite being Sextant.
So much tobacco, so little money.

Both of my favorite Pease blends contain no Dark Fired. One contains a wee bit of Latakia IIRC. Telegraph Hill is a very enjoyable ribbon cut VaPer. That is followed closely by Cairo. If I was limited to blends with Latakia, I would favor Samarra.

Thanks very much for all the recommendations so far. Seems like i'm going to have a hard time picking just one. Maybe 4-5 would be more like it. Anyone like Abingdon?

Samarra is my favorite but I like several others too. Odyssey and Quiet Nights are among my other top picks.

Haddo's Delight hands down, other than that I'm not a big fan of his line. I enjoy Maltese Falcon and thought it was the cats meow several years ago but my lust has since faded.

Love every one I've tried!
Not sure I can name a top one, but the ones that come to mind are Chelsea Morning, Quiet Nights, Lagonda, Maltese Falcon, Meridian, Westminster.
Barbary Coast is a great burley blend, Key Largo is nice for a change with cigar leaf.
OK, I guess my favorites at Maltese Falcon, Lagonda, and Westminster, and Barbary Coast. Westminster has been one of my "big jar" blends for years, but this past year I fell in love with the Falcon and Lagonda.
DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE ONLY ONE!!!!

Sixpence, Meridian, Sextant, Navigator, and Jack Knife Plug are always welcome in my cellar.
