Is there a tobacco similar to Condor that is available on this side of the Atlantic? I enjoyed the pouch of Condor I ordered from the U.K. but not the $45 a pouch it would cost for more. Is there a close alternative?
Condor alternative?

I was told Grousemoor would be close but doing some investigation online makes me think otherwise.
I know of one Condor smoker who smokes Galwith & Hoggarth's Best Brown #2 and something else that i can't recall at the moment, to help offset buying Condor exclusively. I have tried the BB#2 and like I have said before.... right string, wrong Yo-Yo. There are several of these type blends that you may enjoy which have some Lakeland essence, but for myself I have developed a Love for Condor, and nothing else satisfies. Happy Smokes,

There is nothing really like Condor.
Grousemoor is not even vaguely Condorish.
I broke out some GH Conniston Cut plug recently. I whiffed the jar after opening it and thought, "Hey, that smells a little like Condor." I think that if you like Condor there is a good chance you'll like Conniston. It isn't a lot like Condor. But probably closer than anything else IMO.

I'd be very excited for the re-birth of Warhorse plug as Simon aka condorlover loved it enough to go into the pipe tobacco business along with woodsroad, therefore I would guess warhorse plug when it becomes available could satisfy that itch.
Warhorse is the sort of tobacco I enjoy. That being said its not to everyones taste but it delivers the necessary nicotine 'wallop' that a Condor smoker would desire.
