War Horse! Tastes like shit. Buy some now!!!!
That was the original SToP advertising by line.
And that's the reason I bought a pick up load of it when it first hit the market.
I think it'd be cool to see a series with blends named after great musicians. Or even go as far as a jazz series, a bluegrass, a classical, a rock - then individual blends per genre named after the artist.
Since pipe smokers tend to be older, and more experienced in life, blend names should be less esoteric and more relatable:

I could never get over Parsons' Pleasure - and that one was real!
Mingus Mixture
Ole Coltrane
Yardbird Ready Rubbed
These blends are so complex that the recipes are only known to few tobacco scholars, but many will claim that they are more about the components that aren’t included.
Classic, isn’t it! Lol
For those that don’t know ‘Parson’s Pleasure’ was a stretch of riverbank, frequented by male nude bathers, from the adjacent university in Oxford. Got its name thanks to a ‘voyeuristic’ clergyman.
C.S. Lewis was a frequent visitor apparently, Christopher Morley wrote a poem about it.
One anecdote has it that a number of dons were sunbathing naked at Parson's Pleasure when a female student floated by in a punt. All but one of the startled dons covered their genitals—Maurice Bowraplaced a flannel over his head instead. When asked why he had done so, he replied, "I don’t know about you, gentlemen, but in Oxford, I, at least, am known by my face."
Nice to remember an age in the tobacco industry, where advertising & humour were allowed. Baby’s Bottom (nothing smoother!) from Savoury’s has got to be one of the best.
Cathedral Radio? Random but intriguing. Not going to ask what ‘Snake in the Porridge’ means. Lol
Gulag Flake.
It's pure rustica and some tree bark.
For the most discerning of inmates, who want to add more of a refined and woody note to their махорка.

In-Law Visit - room note of BO mixed with dumpster outside Turkish tobacco shop and topped with porta potty. Smoke fast and heavy!!
Dagobah Flake. When aged 900 years your tobacco is, smoke this good it will not!
Bilge Water Blend- The newest addition to the Billy Budd series. Fascinating overtones of fish rot, puke and manliness.
Gruel Mixture- A tasteless blend to follow that equally bland shit you had for breakfast.
Canker Blend- Don't say we didn't warn you.
