Why hasn't anyone mentioned C&D Haunted Bookstore? It was my first intro to a blend with perique that did not include Latakia, which I don't enjoy. This is a solid smoke, best experienced after a big meal, while sitting down.

Thank you all for your suggestions. This is a great list of tobaccos for me to try as time and money allow.
Thanks to "Spartan" and his generosity, my first non-aromatic was smoked over the weekend. Shortcut to Mushrooms is very "different" and I really liked it. It really does smell like mushrooms and the forest floor.
I never thought I would, but I'm really enjoying trying different tobaccos. I figured I'd be a one tobacco kind of guy. I place an order for quite a few different blends and so far I've tried Shortcut to Mushrooms, Plum Pudding and Hearth and Home Sweet and Savory and like all of them. Variety truly is the spice of life...and tobacco. Hope you all don't mind me resuscitating.
