Well my order of Shortcut to Mushrooms arrived today and I now have a 8oz bag of new baccy on my hand. I forgot how good this stuff is, I cant believe i let myself run out of this stuff for so long. Gonna have to lay in a good supply of this stuff.
Its well worth a try. It really was the tobacco that got me into smoking lat blends. I tried Old Dublin first and realized they didnt taste as bad as they smell. Then I tried Shortcut to Mushrooms and said holy crap this is good. Ive never looked back much to my familys dismay. They really dont like the smell of latakias. I on the other hand have gotten to really love the smell lol.

Yeah, I hear you on that, my G/F doesn't think much of the smell of latakia blends at all, as for me, when I tried my first English blend, it was latakia love at first puff, and I've never really looked back!
This is my go to blend actually! I smoke this more than any other blend with 1Q and Poper English coming in right behind! This reminds me that I need to stock up on some SCTM!
I wasn't impressed with the Middle Earth sampler I got when I first picked up my pipe. I don't know if my mouth was fried since I was not very good with the pipe yet or what but I can't believe I missed this one. Brought the samplers back out because of this thread and having some of the SCTM right now. Definitely glad I tried again.
STM is an excellent smoke. Very friendly - has a great balance of Latakia. There is a topping (no it's not mushrooms) that tastes earthy in a very good way.
