I for one, figure I might learn something.

I've petitioned for it to be renamed the Let's-Irritate-Edger thread, but so far, it has fallen upon deaf ears. I'm quite used to that, though.
Newminster 403 superior round slices. Tried everything and bites me bad every time. I have many other blends with the same tobacco components and do not have this issue with them at all.
That would be fun, getting everything you didn't wish for.
You know, there is another that came to mind, and I'm going to get some flak for it, but I did not like Three Nuns. It was my first experience with DFK, and though I enjoyed the barbeque notes of the DFK, the rest of the blend was bland, dry, and not very enjoyable. I'm still very new to DFK blends, but literally everyone I've tried so far have been more enjoyable than 3N.
Now, I've heard that 3N changed their recipe a few years back, so maybe that was a factor or I just had a bad tin. But based on what I smoked, I don't get the appeal. It was very mediocre to me.

Being we're talking about bad smoking blends....
Here's a little blend you can easily make to give to a tobacco mouch. You know, the kind of guy who is always "fresh out" and wants to "borrow" a pipe full of what you're smoking, but never offers any of his to someone else.
I'll leave it to your imagination as to how to deliver it, but here's how to make it. Take a small amount of any blend you want and then get hold of one hair from a horse's tail. Chop the hair up and mix it in the tobacco. I guarantee that after the mouch smokes a few puffs of this he will never ask to borrow your tobacco again.

That would work! I bet that enough hair of any beast, including the human one, would do the trick. Or bits of wool. That'd fix any mooch's pestering.
Every now and then an errant cat hair finds its way into my pipes without my notice. The life of a cat dad is not for the faint of heart, gentlemen.
Hey Dan (@woodsroad) what was that awful stuff that was in the box pass several years ago. It was in a blue wrapper in a brick? I think it was from England. It smelled and tasted gross.
Just carry some mint flavored tobacco around in an Altoid tin for the moochers. Bet it would work on anyone... except maybe Brobs.
Wasn't involved and don't want to butt in, but I'd venture a guess that it was Tabac Manil from Belgium.
Perhaps.
I don’t remember anything expressy foul smelling. CB Grape, maybe, but I don’t know if any made it into the box pass. Lakeland Somethingorother?
It's funny reading some of these. I enjoy a lot of the blends people are calling out
I am completely with you on this blend. I normally will give a blend at least a full session before I give it a rating. This one got scraped out after a few puffs.
