I know this has been asked here before, but I don't believe I've seen a definitive answer. Does anyone know of a source to purchase Deer Tongue? I love the stuff and want to be able to add it to blends. Crooner got me hooked, but I've noticed they appear to be using less of it in the blend lately. Now , it just seems bland. I want to be able to add it myself. Anyone???

If you want another deertounge blend to try, get C&D gentlemen. Caller, engine 382 or new market. All are great blends, gentlemen caller is the most deertounge forward, more than crooner
I just threw away a 1/2 tin of Gentlemen Caller. It had less Deer Tongue in the tin than Crooner. I found it very bland and couldn't even taste the Deer Tongue. Thanks for the info! I'll look harder.

Interesting request. My friend is on his way back from a week long hunting trip in PA. I can ask him to cut the tongues out and send them to you if you'd like. Probably 4-5 of them if I had to reckon a guess.

Tell your friend I prefer sticks!

I find the deertongue in Crooner can vary by batch. A 1lb bag will be great then an older bag I have will have less, or vice versa.

I would shoot C&D an email and see if you can buy a small amount from them via SP...

Pretty sure here is the stuff:


But pays to read a bit first as there appear to be a variety of herbs labelled deer tongue (as well as deer tongue grass) and not all of them can be smoked. Here’s a helpful thread.

Yes, and that looks like a good source
