Best Blend of 2024: The Nominations Phase

[jbfrady]

D&R Ryback was nominated by @brooklynpiper but wasn’t included on the most recent update!

Good catch! I'll be sure it's on the next one

Also - my "Sun Bear" recommendation was the Black Locust 2024 version specifically if it matters.

I listed it in the general to avoid duplication, but feel free to pretend it says Black Locust

New Update: C&D is far and away the leading manufacturer of the blends nominated, with GLP (also curated by the house of Diehl) close behind. In this regard it's a far cry from last year's list. (If I recall correctly, there wasn't a single GLP nominated last time.) This shall be interesting...

@jbfrady I take it the nominations are over? If so, it's time to get to the first round of mudslinging.

I heard that Cascadia Trailhead is quite literally referencing the kind of illicit fellatio one gets behind a thick stand of pine trees. Hiking will never feel the same again...

 

[niblicck]

Escudo Navy Deluxe.

Indeed! I’ll compile what we’ve got into a new thread on the 26th and we’ll let the chaos ensue

You mean I have to wait two full days? Ugh, the suspense is killing me...
