Burley/ Lat Forward Or American English Blend Experience?

[snagstangl]

I like burley and lat combo blends as of late. I have Big n Burley, Morely's best, H&H Beverwyc, and I just worked through and ounce of Project Xylophone from Smokers haven only to find it is no longer listed on their website so I assume it's not available. What other similar burley/lat forward or American English blends am I missing.

H&H Beverwyck would definitely have made the list if you didn't already have it.

A few more that come to mind:
C&D - Billy Budd

C&D - Epiphany

Middleton - Walnut

4 Noggins - Bald Headed Teacher

4 Noggins - El Rincon de la pipa #1 (more Burley flavor when dry, more Oriental when moist)

C&D does Burley/latakia blends pretty well. I'd add Morley's best to the list.

+1 Billy Budd

C&D Crowley's Best -- nothing but burley, Latakia and Perique.

 

[antbauers]

+1 Epiphany - a great smoke, nice balance of latakia and burley. As papipeguy mentioned, C&D blends this very well.

C&Ds Burley Flake #4

I have some Epiphany sitting around as well.

+1 Bald Headed Teacher.

+1 Billy Budd and other C&D blends. Though it isn't a Lat blend, I think you would

probably like GL Pease Triple Play, a plug.

I went crazy on Beverwyck for a while, bought a whole dang lot of it, and then found I couldn't stand it any longer.

I have some epiphany loaded and ready to go.

 

[texmexpipe]

Epiphany is a great blend! Great thread, I was looking for some suggestions in this area myself.

 

[snagstangl]

Morelys was very good, I am going to have to smoke more Epiphany to get acquainted with the flavors.

 

[mso489]

Another non-Lat blend, with Va, burley, and Perique, you might like is C&D's Old Joe Krantz.

Many burley fans really like this one, as I do. Lat's good but not all interesting non-aro burley

blends need it.

 

[snagstangl]

OJK is already one of my faves.

Under C&D bulk blends meeting these criteria I would mention Odessa. I keep some here, a half pound or so, and do enjoy it. (Not Red Odessa, however. That one has Red Virginia instead of burley, and is much sweeter.)

 

[snagstangl]

I would appreciate any other specific blend recommendations from c and d. Also anyone tried the e

. Hoffman blends?

 

[papipeguy]

Snag, I've smoked Spilman Mixture and Distinguished Gentleman. Spliman reminds me of real old time American lat blends. I happen to like it a lot. Distinguished Gentleman is more of a crossover almost similar to Lane's HGL- a tad on the sweet side.

On the whole, two nice blends that can be smoked all day.

 

[snagstangl]

Spilman,Crowley, Odessa,baldheaded teacher, golden ash. To try. I got the official word project xylophone is no more as well. I had an ounce of billy bud at one time time to o searching. I appreciate all input or links to other threads about this as well.
