Dear deathmetal,
You have some good blends listed, but 18?? You truly owe it to yourself to take my advice over the past few months and more recently Nate's and expand your horizons into the HU Tobacco world. My current #1 as previously stated is Harvest, which I highly recommend.

@mcitinner1

...Nightcap.

Also a favorite. Engine 99 may have bumped it however.

I am certain they are great blends, and will sample them at some time, but they may not meet all of my requirements. Among other things, there is a unicorn-like nature to their availability, and they seem a bit light in the Nicotine department and a bit heavy in the top flavoring one, but this is just by reading TR. I look forward to encountering them someday.
