That's one heck of an order for a try! Looking forward to getting your thoughts on them.

Interesting reads looking forward to all the feedback!

Bagpiper's Dream is my favorite. However, I put mine in a noodle press for a few weeks so the flavors could meld together real well and so now I have a hockey puck that I just tear away enough to rub out and fill my pipe. Absolutely delicious! Definitely an after dinner dessert smoke, but I smoke it any time since I can't wait till after dinner

I just opened a can of Marlin Flake myself, cheers!

If I only had Rattray's Virginias to smoke for the rest of my life I'd be happy.
HOTW is an all-timer for me.

I think I’ve got 4 or 5 of those Old Gowrie cans; one of my all time favorites. Have you got any updates about smoking it more or trying the others?

I had two "ships" headed for my dock. One from Country Squire and one from Watch City. They both arrived yesterday so hopefully I will have enough to make it through this weekend................



Now, I can start planning on what I need to order for next week.......

Of those I've only had Marlin Flake and Old Gowrie, but it's been so long since I tried them that I don't remember much. My favorite Rattray blend is Red Rapparee.

I haven't tried any others yet. I'm going to try Bagpiper's Dream this afternoon as my reward for spending the day painting the fence. I'll report back.

I hope you survive! Haha.

Very nice order. I'd say it puts mine to shame. What blends did you get from the Country Squire?

Snook:

If you like any or all of those five Rattray's blends, then allow me to recommend two others, both favorites of mine:

Black Mallory

Jocks Mixture

Ha, you are right. It will take me a year to work through these.....

From the Country Squire I got some more Faulkner Flake. A pure Virginia that I really love and two new ones: Wessex Gold Brick VA plug and some Angry Cornishman. The latter is supposed to be a very Latakia heavy English. We shall see.
