Complex Blend

[tg51]

I'm curious as to what everyone considers their complex tobacco blend. The blend that you reach for when you want a deep contemplative smoke. One which you discover a different subtle nuance to each time you smoke.

I just looked at the components, quite the blend. I'd be interested to see which tobaccos come to the forefront with different amounts of aging.

Plum Pudding and Salty Dogs.

I've been meaning to order some plum pudding. I'll have to wait for the 1st though. Do you prefer the original or the special reserve?

SR by a nose but they are both fantastic.

Mine would have to be L.J. Peretti's Cuban Mixture. Has everything but the kitchen sink in it, but somehow it works. One of the most interesting tobacco blends I've smoked.

For me without hesitation - Peretti's Cuban Mixture

Motzek Strang, no question, HU 5th Anniversary Blend, HU Indaba, GL Pease Renaissance come to mind.

Black Frigate has a very complex aroma, and the taste ain't bad either.

Some blends with five or six tobaccos don't really put over much complexity, but I was entirely impressed with Briar Works blend Country Lawyer, with six tobaccos, for being pleasantly blended so it all works together, and thanks to the generous member who sent me a sample from the Chicago show.

Motzek Strang mixed with a bit of 5100.

Rattray’s Hal o’ The Wynd
Mac Baren Club Blend

SPC Potlatch and MacBaren Mixture Scottish for me. Almost every smoke is a little different, and they evolve through the bowl.

How about TheRevor Plug?

G.L. Pease Robusto - still can’t decide what it wants to be when it grows up. Cigar forward blend sweetened with Red VA - or - Virginia blend darkened with Maduro leaf...

I agree with Mikefu about SPC Potlatch being complex. In fact I'd call it overly complex. A bowl of chaos for the mouth.
