Game: 5 Lb Cellar - Must Be Reasonably Available

[shanez]

Other threads have been fun and got me thinking. So here are the rules:

1) The tobacco must be reasonably available. No unobtainiums.

2) Unlimited $ funds.

3) Limited to 5 Lbs total.

4) Pretend it's the only tobacco you'll ever be able to cellar.

I'll post my list after thinking about it a bit more.

5 pounds of PS Luxury Navy Flake, $180.00 delivered to your door.
That is what I would do, as a matter of fact, that is what I did. Several times

SG Skiff mixture - 1.5 lb
SG Full Virginia flake - 1.5 lb
C&d Pegasus - 1/2 lb
H&H Magnum Opus - 1/2 lb
HH old dark fired - 1 lb

You're burley load is too high. You need to Balkanize more or your dick will fall off.

Haha Fayyum and PP are enough for me! Although Balkan Supreme is one that would be right up there, especially with limited funds.

My experience is still in the development stage so I will just go with what I know:

1/2 pound Country Squire (CS) Sheppard's pie = English
1/2 pound CS Old Toby = (Adult ) Aromatic
1/2 pound CS Northwest Trek = Aromatic English
1/2 pound Peter Heinrich's Curly Block = Va/Per
1/2 pound Gawith and Hoggarth Dark Plug = Va/Bur
1/2 pound McClelland (Syrian) 3 Oaks = Balkan
1/2 pound Peterson Elizabethan Mixcture = Va/Per
1/2 pound McClelland Blackwoods Flake = Straight Virginia
1/2 pound Esoterica Dunbar = Va/Per
1/2 pound Esoterica Margate = English

I could also live with @alaskanpiper s choices too. Very similar tastes.

Haha indeed. I assumed McC wasn’t fair game because of the “reasonably available” statute, but if it is, I’d replace my FVP with 40th anniversary. Which conveniently, I already have .5lbs of, so I guess for me it is certainly “reasonably available” haha.

I’ll second that!

 

[sandollars]

This was the premise I took. I already have the quantities (in most cases more) and blends I chose, so to me they are "reasonably available". If I only get to keep 5 pounds (SUPER SUCKS!) i could load up a few other people too!

 

[shanez]

This is harder than I thought but:

1 Lb - SG St James Flake
.5 Lb - GH&C Dark Flake Unscented
.5 Lb - GH&C Happy Bogie Unscliced
.5 Lb - SP Plum Pudding SR
.5 Lb - Peterson Nightcap
1 Lb - Sutliff Sweet VA
1 Lb - GH&C American Delight

The nightcap could be replaced with Penzance but I think it's too hard to get right now to strictly follow the rules.

Also I could trade a half Lb of the American Delight for another aro but I can't think of one I enjoy as much right now.

 

[shanez]

The 5 Lb limit and "reasonably available" really makes for good contemplation but that's the fun of it. I also enjoy comparing others responses with my choices.

 

[frozenchurchwarden]

I might just go for Gaslight.

If we're allowed multiple blends I'd throw in some Ennerdale.

Or maybe just stick with Carter Hall.

Yes you're allowed multiple blends.

Re-reading my original post I wasn't clear about that.

One blend for life isn't a game I want to play. I'd probably just quit smoking.

 

[didimauw]

I'd say 5lb Briar Fox.

 

[trubka2]

1 lb Director's Cut
1 lb GH Scotch Mixture
1 lb HU Makhuwa
1 lb Irish Flake
1 lb St James Flake
