We could do this for years!
I'm counting on it! Who wants to browse informative posts? One might, heaven forbid, learn something useful...
Ennerdale is being ganged upon 
. I will vote in the evening as usual.

If he were alive today, I am quite certain he'd vote
Ennerdale, -128

Today I'll swing at Oriental Silk. Maybe seeing some low-hanging fruit will distract people from the great Ennerdale phenomenon of 2024 for a second or two...

It's impossible to say whether Ennerdale is Muhammad Ali or Wolverine, whether he's the ultimate powerhouse who won't stay down or the overpowered self-healer with the indestructible skeleton. His enemies have encircled him and set upon him as frostily as mobsters armed with ice picks. But still, he lives on. Kinda makes you pull for him, doesn't it?
The legendary struggles of Ennerdale have spelled success for other blends who used his dramatic display as a means of hoarding a little hit-point power of their own. Four blends crawled away like Andy Dufresne from his cramped cell in Shawshank, elbowing through a mile-long sh!t pit into the vast terrain of freedom. Three of these five blends are of the Gawith tradition in one way or another, suggesting either a nepotistic monopoly or a divine-right monarchy lies at the top. If this is true, Rouxgaroux's in deep poo poo.

Ennerdale -2
I did buy 500 g of Ennerdale enjoyed two bowls of it, and cellared the rest. But only one can stay on top and my favorite sauced Lakeland is not even in the running (Dark Flake Aromatic)

Of the ones remaining I would love to see in the podium FVF, Bob's Chocolate and Ennerdale and then have these 3 fight for the crown. So this is why I try to keep Ennerdale alive.
