    Tambolaka substitutes

    If anything out there is as strong as Tambo, I haven't found it. The next strongest ones in my rotation are Sam Gawith's Brown XX rope and 5 Brothers. Just an fyi, 4 Noggins has Tambo back in stock last I checked.

    Best bang for the buck for a flake in a tin?

    You covered my first answer....ODF. Others I like for not a lot of$ are MacBerens Viginia Flake and Navy Flake.

    Best Vanilla Aromatic

    Another vote for Dan Sweet Vanilla Honeydew... just wish it wasn't so expensive.

    Early Morning Smoke

    I like Hearth & Home Classic Burley Kake with a cup of Italian roast.

    What's closest thing to Penzance?

    I started a thread on this subject a little while back and had a member send me a sample out of the goodness of their heart (still have a bit left). I'll likely get booed of the stage for this, but I've found that Hearth & Home 10 to midnight scratches the Penzance itch quite well. I wouldn't...

    Favorite Homemade blends/combos/experiments

    I have one I call a "pipe bomb"..... 1 part Tambolaka, 2 parts 5 Brothers, 1 part Brown Irish X rope. I don't smoke it very often though.

    I really enjoyed McClellan's Katerini Classic...tastes like sweet curry to me

    Easily in my top 5. The only beef I have is it's often hard to find.

    Bulk alternatives, could use some help.

    It's not that similar, but if you like Orlik I'd give MacBarens Virginia Flake a shot. Most places carry their 16 oz. bags.
