Best Bulk Tobacco?

[flipflopsandshades]

Could you pipe pros please recommend and provide to me a list of what you think are some of the best "bulk" tobaccos as I want to place an order in a few days.
I would definitely prefer that it not be too bold, strong, or robust but something mild that also won't get me kicked out of the house due to a bad or harsh room note.
Thanks.

I am just trying out the Mac Baren's Seven Seas Royal. It's quite mellow has a good room note and is quite reasonably priced. I got mine from smokingpipes.com who had the best price I had been able to find.

Lane 1Q comes to my mind right away. I also really like Butternut Burley at

Both are very nice.

Check out the Boswell blends also and try some that look interesting to you.

That is so subjective but Russ Oulette makes some fantastic blends over at PipesandCigars. Look at them and pick some to try with his sampler. Same for C and D.

McClelland's Dark English Full is fantastic. A bulk version of Frog Morton Across the Pond.

I also would suggest the Middle Earth blends from Just For Him. They have a sampler of those belnds. I would second what strongirish suggested, C&D and pipesandscigars.com samplers. Each has a sampler package that is priced quite reasonably.

I would reccomend almost anything from boswell. Also as said before its hard to go wrong with Lane 1-Q. The Seven Seas blends are also quite good.

Thanks fellow pipe smokers. Please keep the suggestions coming. :D 8)

At first I thought my favorite was Cornell & Diehl Nutty Irishman, but the room note was a bit more tobacco than nuttiness than both Lane Limited 1Q and Mac Baren 7 Seas Regular. If I'm going to smoke indoors, I would probably end up picking either Lane Limited 1Q or Mac Baren 7 Seas Regular. They're all mild, with C&D Nutty Irishman maybe being the strongest of the three.

Gotta try some of Boswell's tobaccos. They have some that will leave a wonderful room note and are very mild. I also agree with the 1Q and Lane BCA. Lane BCA is sold as "Midnight" at my local B&M.

We don't have bulk pipe tobacco here in Barrie,Ontario...but if I open 5 pouches at the same time, I will have "bulk" in my jar. hahaha...

If you get very deeply into this subject, do not forget the Peter Stokkebye blends such as Golden Dansk and Dansk Black among many others that are a wonderful smoke with great pricing.... :D

 

[smokingspiritualized]

Mattia 76 nailed it from my perspective: McClelland's 5110 (English). For a sweeter side you might try McClelland's 5100.

 

[thomc80]

Hilojohnny made a great suggestion cant believe i forgot to mention Peter Stokkebyes Golden Dansk. Its rapidly becoming one of my favorite smokes.

 

[tedswearingen]

Right now I'm really enjoying McClelland's 5100 Red Cake. Dangerously good stuff!

I've enjoyed the aromatics at Pipeworks and Wilke (http://www.vtpipes.com/tobacco.html) which are available in bulk by mail.
Wilke 191 is pretty mild and hasn't gotten me kicked out of the house.

I've also enjoyed her Vermont Maple Cavendish and her Cherry Cavendish, both are easy smokes with good room notes.
Wilke 193 is also good indoor smoking; might go beyond your definition of "mild", 'tho. In addition to Black Cavendish it has some Latakia and Perique in it. Still, no complaints from my wife when I smoke it inside.
