Desert Island Thread

[anotherbob]

If you had to pick your desert Island pipe blend, you know you have as much as you can smoke in a life time but nothing else what are the top three blends you'd consider. For me It's Cary Grant, Escudo, and Keylargo by Gl Pease. They're just three that are always good and all interesting enough to not get boring.

 

[tradition]

Amphora Virginia
Dunhill / Peterson Standard Mixture
Dunhill / Peterson Nightcap

 

[alaskanpiper]

McClelland 40th Anniversary

I haven't yet found a single blend that I would smoke exclusively, so whatever I say would be a lie. Of my favorite blends I would include Motzek Strang, Esoterica Dunbar, and, HA, no freakin' way.

Hasn't changed since the last ten desert island threads.

 

[lochinvar]

Escudo, Ashton Pebblecut McClelland Grand Oriental Smyrna.
If we're keeping it to blends in production, replace the McClelland with Savinelli Janus and Capstan.

Were I alone on a desert island, I would have no need of nicotine as there would be no stress in Heaven.

It changes depending on the day, but right now I'd say Penny Farthing, Three Friars, and HH Old Dark Fired. Though I am really loving Daughters and Ryan Windsail lately. It strikes me as a great day-in, day-out VA blend.

Variety is my pleasure, but to play along, a few favorites:

Tabac-Manil Semois, C&D Night Bayou, and Nat Sherman 536

Or:

SPC Potlatch, SWRA, and Amphora Burley

Or, or, or....

Yes.... alone on a desert island there may be no need, perhaps..... but, truth-be-told..... at least for me..... it would sure as hell be more FUN to still have nicotine!

For me, for general all around consistency, I would take either Prince Albert or Sir Walter Raleigh..... either, in CANS... of course.

There's nicotine in those?

There's nicotine in those?

yes in every fourth flake.

 

[ray47]

Because it has the nicotine strength I like, I'd choose 5 Brothers.

 

[sandollars]

I would take my:

McClelland box
Esoterica box
Sam Gawith box

Three brands.

 

[virginialover]

Dunhill Durbar by Murray.
McClelland Boston 1776.
Sobranie of London Virginian No.10

The odds of having an infinite supply of these tobaccos are as great as finding myself on a desert island.

 

[petes03]

I don’t think I could pick just one. Maybe one from each genre, but not just one. And I could probably pick one pipe for each tobacco, but not just one pipe.

 

[radrick96]

Give me a cob and some PA. Don’t need two other choices. But...
Amphora burley
Peterson Irish oak

Hasn't changed since the last ten desert island threads.

Yeah, but they're all closed as they are too old according to the boss. That means that we get to have new postings of this thread forever...bwa, ha, ha, haaa!
