This is always a hard question to answer, but here ya go....
1. Peter Heinrich’s Curly Block
2. SG St. James Flake
3. C&D Haunted Bookshop
4. Revor Plug
5. Esoterica Dorchester
6. Germain’s Rich Dark Flake
7. Condor Long Cut

I limited my list to blends that are readily available or at least reasonably attainable.☕
I would love to find anything from Germain. What's your secret? Order from across the pond?

Germain's Rich Dark Flake,
Rattray's Marlin Flake,
SG Squadron Leader,
SG ST. James Plug,
SG Kendal Plug and
Dunhill Navy Rolls.

There's six there. I'd also take a floral lakeland, probably GH Kendal Flake, they're not something I smoke often but a floral blend with the sun on your back is one of the joys of summer.

I just had my first bowl of Kendal Plug, was really windy out so that made it hard to enjoy. I enjoyed it but didn’t blow me away. How do those who like both this and SG Brown Sugar say they compare if they do at all?

These aren’t the seven I smoke the most, but if I were to be restricted to only seven for all eternity, I would need some variety.

1) Margate
2) Wilderness
3) McClellands 40th Anniversary
4) Dunhill Deluxe Navy Rolls
5) Solani Aged Burley Flake
6) Condor Ready Rubbed
7) Peter Heinrich’s Dark Strong Flake

Hmmmm...Klondike Gold. I haven't smoked that in a while. Time to open a tin.
Jesse, I needed to search a couple of places but then score, there was around 25 tins sitting there waiting on my grubby paws. I smoked some earlier today and it was awesome. I hadn't smoked any in a couple of moths so it tasted really good. I am so glad O hadn't buried too many in the boxes they were shipped in cause I haven't opened shit

I thought it would be fun to list the most commonly mentioned, still available blends that all of you have shared so far.

1. HH ODF
2. SG FVF
3. Escudo
4. OGS
5. HU Director's Cut
6. SG St. James flake

There was a huge tie for the last spot. Black Frigate, SG Cabbie's Mixture, Hal O' the Wynd, Marlin Flake, SG Squadron Leader, and Capstan Blue.

Gawith Dark Flake would have been higher, but some didn't specify unscented or scented.

Don't go too hard on me, I have too much free time.

Haha wow. Latakia is nowhere to be seen! As such, that list is totally unacceptable!

VaPers are definitely well represented! It seems like many of the English blends got split up a bunch. They may be too subtlety varied to different smoker's tastes.

I guess a really well done VaPer stands out more than other types of blends.
