So I know this is a spin on the pipe brand thread but how about tobacco.

The number of baccy I have smoked is very limited but here is mine

If going out to somewhere where "Room Note" is vital, i/e/ some of our friends, either PS Optimum, or failing that, Alsbo Black.
At home, mostly English Blends with a touch of the Balkans about them.

Squadron Leader, PS Balkan Supreme, or even some Gawith, Hogarth Balkan Mixture. Dunhill 965 and Nightcap have proven popular.
The list could go on forever, but these tend to be stalwarts

For the blend that is consistently excellent, and the room note always brings compliments.

Lane Ltd. 1Q

This is a question where the answer will change, as I enjoy a large

number of blends. Today, it's St. Bruno Flake.

Lawrence and I tend to agree on this point...
Lane Limited 1Q is an amazing all day smoke! I also enjoy Lane's BCA when I am looking for a very mild smoke!

Of the blends I have on hand, my faves are Lane 1-Q, Lane MV-1000 (similar, to 1-Q, but all golden virginias) and CAO Eileen's Dream.
I'm currently out of PS Black Currant Cavendish and can't get it around here, but that would be the first thing I would reach for if I had some. I'm hoping Solani X Sweet Mystery (which I CAN get locally) is a decent substitute. I just haven't gotten to the tobacconist lately. Too dangerous.

I would have to agree with Lane 1Q. Also I have found my new love, Rattray's Bagpiper's Dream it smokes as great as it smells. I wish I could get this blend in bulk.

Hamburger Beermaster. I've never tried it, but it's a great sounding name.
You never cease to make me laugh Larry.
It's an awesome blend in case you really haven't tried it, but somehow, I think you have. ;)
For my answer to this question, I will have to make a spreadsheet and get back to you.

Mac Baren, Rich's store blends, Villiger, and Samuel Gawith. I still haven't gotten around the a super order that I have planned, which will include some C&Ds, GLPs, Samuel Gawith (I have a tin of Full Virginia flake, delicious but I can't seem to keep it lit!), really just something of everything. Maybe I'll make it all my christmas gift to myself...
Edit: forgot about my tin of John Aylesbury Latakia blend. Good stuff...it's like a campfire in your pipe!

Edit edit: Forgot about my Sterling 1776 Tavern! The Full Virginia flake I'm smoking now is making me forgetful!

My recent favorite is Peterson Irish Oak. I like it since it is honest tobacco without much trickery. It also feels like it has a nice nicotine punch.

For me I would say Lane 1-Q, Altadis Blue Note and Black Cordial, and finally MacBarens Vanilla Cream Flake Cut.
