Usually I just use blending tobacco when making my own blend, but this idea concerning some of my favorite aromatics popped into my head and it was just too dang good to pass up.

So usually I can come up with a cool name, like "Oakenshield" named after Thorin Oakenshield from The Lord Of The Rings, or "The Black Dragon's Rage" for a Balkan blend I came up with. But my creative mind is drawing a blank and I need some ideas. Obviously, I love fantasy literature and movies so a fantasy themed name would be a bonus.

The blend is simple enough and as follows...

1/3 Lane BCA
1/3 Lane LL-7
1/3 Rattray's Exotic Passion (Exotic Orange)

Hmmm...looks pretty Halloween-y in the photo provided. I've done some tabletop RPG in my time, letsee if the old DM noggin can think of anything.

Proposal 1-
Full name, "The Fragrant Chambers Of The Harem Of The Headless King".
Headless King for short.

Proposal 2-
Sweet-tooth Goblin

Proposal 3-
Jolly Crew of Specters
(because there's three of them, and I imagine it does a little ghosting.)
A reference to Gilbert & Sullivan's "Ruddigore", in which the ghostly ancestors of the protagonist dismiss his concern for them with the remark, "We specters are a jollier crew than you, perhaps, suppose", then tell him all about their nightly ghost parties.

Exotic Orange on its own will certainly ghost. Cool ideas!

The Halloween-y idea struck a chord with me and the Disney animation Night On Black Mountain came to mind. Could be a cool name as well.

Oddly enough Pfeifen Depot just introduced a line of 3 belds that are individually named after the movie.

Given the nature of the tobacco market maybe "A few dollars more" is appropriate. Unfortunately its fits most blends.
Surprised that isnt Copy Right infringement.

They can get away with it since one tin is called "The Good"
a different "The Bad" etc...
You only understand where it comes from when they are sitting next to one another on a website and they dont even have them in exact order on their home page.

Its also an in shop item. It wouldnt be worth anyones while to try and stop them. If anything its just a nod rather than an infringment.
