Best of the Best OCBs…Go!

[burleybreath]

I always liked Walnut more than the others. There's a match blend for it, and I have a tub, but I haven't tried it yet. And Edward G. Robinson, already mentioned, would be high on my list if you don't care for the relatively plain-Jane Prince Alberts, Sir Walter Raleigh, Grangers, etc. The only one I don't like is Paladin [cough].

Prince Al of the true old timers.
Sutliff Match Ready Rub - Lane RR is discontinued

I’m currently exploring—and struggling to appreciate the codger blends. So far the one I like best—-not sure if it’s a true codger blend but it’s certainly in that style—is Burley Delight

 

[--dante--]

Granger -- I like the rough cut and the slight molasses taste. Also the dog on the can is a good boy.

In years past I did smoke a ton of Half & Half.....and Revelation( when it was an OTC). I don't think anyone mentioned Revelation. I still have a few pounds of the HOW version. I thought the Murrays stuff was the best though. Or was it Philp Morris in the 70-80's

 

[OldWill]

Granger, Carter Hall, SWR in that order. However, I still have some original Walnut and Holiday blends that I really like as well.

 

[MattRVA]

Prince Albert is the codger blend I smoke the most and like the best with Carter Hall coming in a close second.

I have some Walnut still. I liked that blend. Maybe I need to re-try some of these.

I am sorry but you are all wrong! ?
It has to be st Bruno.

I’ve got both on the way and I’m excited to try them!

Is that a Boswell?

 

[TravB]

Ordered, minus the lane. Where did you procure that?

I’ve committed to some larger packages (1.5ers’ not readily available) so I hope I like em’! lol

It's an Erik Nording pipe, that pic is from 2009 or so.

St Bruno

I find all of them unsmokable. After 30 some years of smoking nothing but them.

Carter Hall

I like Half&half the most...the newer Carter hall got some chemicals in it which i do not like and taste it everytime i smoke it.older pre 1974 Carter hall taste s so much better....
