Plumb Pudding vs Abingdon

[Pipes505]

Hello all. I’m wondering if anyone is familiar with both Seattle’s Plumb Pudding and G.L. Pease‘s Abingdon, and could compare them. I love Abingdon, and feel like trying Plumb Pudding. But Plumb Pudding is expensive (with shipping) so I thought I’d see if I could get some info to make it at least a somewhat educated guess if I decide to buy some. Thanks to all in advance. And Happy New Year!

Apples and oranges. Abingdon is latakia heavy; PP is latakia light.

I like them both. Abingdon is a more traditional latakia and PP have some cavendish wich makes it more sweet. Compare to old blends , Abingdon is more like 759 and PP like 965.

If there's one thing I cannot stand it's an out-of-plumb pudding! I like mine straight up and down, with no leaning in any direction...

Abingdon is a good one for sure. Might need to open a tin soon. Not sure about the Plum as I haven't smoked it.

Abingdon is better imo.

The Plum Pudding is worth a try for sure but I preferred Abingdon as well for a rich full English. G L Pease Blackpoint is excellent as well.
