Dream a little dream for me.

Sweet Mama Cass; the voice of an angel.
I'm still in love with her.

Thanks guys. This gives me a few to try.

One can take from this that there are a number of substitutes, but no matches. Kind of like a party doll...

If you were going to use a latakia tobacco to make an aromatic crossover, I wouldn't suggest Star of the East. That has too many Orientals with sour notes. To me that is like adding chocolate syrup to buttermilk, blech. Maybe chose something with very little or no other Orientals but latakia.

Honestly though, other than the cute frogs on the tins, I never understood the attraction. It always had a smell or aroma of a candle that had just been blown out.

There were a few crossovers that I don't think are available any more that I thought were way better. Tewksberry had one called Nasferatu that was a licorice based latakia blend. Early on, I liked that one a bunch, till I just burned out on latakia altogether.

I just burned out on latakia altogether.

I've heard this from a few veteran members here and wonder when in the smoking journey this occurred? Also heard members talk of having periods of their lives where they were in specific genre phases. How long did that last for you and what was the genre?

Sound like a great topic for a thread of its own.

I'd suggest mixing Lane HGL with Stokkebye English Oriental Supreme. Start with 50/50 and pare the HGL back from there. While different then Frog, it is similar and affordable enough to experiment with a lot until you get it "just right."
