Skiff Mixture Replacement. Anyone?

[Moonbog]

Last night I was rummaging in my basement, trying really hard to find any number of blends I thought I'd put down there. Found some great stuff I didn't know I had. Three Jars of McClelland Dark English Full, 8 Jars of PS Balkan Supreme...all with a dozen years of age on them. Can't wait to hit that McClelland as I have tasted anything similar to Frog Morton in a decade, but I couldn't find any more Skiff Mixture tins and it's not really available anywhere. Right now, Skiff Mixture is where my head is at.

Today, I tried EMP for the first time and I didn't think it was all that similar in taste. The EMP was a tad lighter on the Latakia I think..either that or the EMP is fresh and the last tin of Skiff I smoked a few weeks ago had 10 years of age on it. Anyhow, other than EMP..... what readily available blends do you all recommend to replace Skiff. Thanks.

Dunhill Standard Mixture Medium may scratch that itch.

Watch City have the 250g boxes if that's any help.

Skiff isn't that hard to find online. All the time you waste trying to find a replacement might be used locating the real thing. Try TurboTin.com if you're having trouble.

You're right. They were very similar. Liked them both. Thanks.

Yup. Just checked and they most certainly do. Thanks a bunch.

Good to know man. I was checking the usual suspects I purchase from and none had it. I'll check out TurboTin. Thanks.

While not an exact match, I find Stokkebye English Oriental Supreme scratches the skiff itch. And it’s dirt cheap.

Good call.
