Motzek Strang
Yet another Strang recommendation. Jim and Peck already had me convinced, but now I'm getting antsy. Do any B&Ms carry Motzek Strang or does it have to be purchased online. I ask because there is no mail order shipping allowed where I live.

Peck sez: "Now I am waiting for Jiminks to list his top 100 new blends of 2014. Perhaps we need a separate thread for that." :rofl:
The truth is that I did try over 100 different bends this year! Hate being busted so early in the day, man!!! :D :puffpipe:

I just tried Six Pence. Found it quite enjoyable, and since I just started smoking again, that is all I have to report. I have Gaslight and Frogmorton in the Basment to try next. :)

I've tried several different tobaccos, but as a latakia lover, here are my top 2.
1. Lane Crown Achievement

2. Hearth and Home's, "Black House."
Of all the others I've tried, they've not made that big of an impression. I've tried a lot of different aros, but evidently, they just aren't my thing. The only aro I've tried, that I've really liked, is 1888's "Midday," but lately, even that isn't doing much for me. I've enjoyed a couple of Mac Baren's offerings, but they definitely aren't my first choice. Lane's 1-Q is alright...

Trailboss: I'll say one thing for the Pipa pipe tobacco (if it was tobacco, lol). It was better than the Chinese cob that came with it. :rofl:

1: aged McClelland 2015

2: aged McClelland 2010

3: aged PS Luxury Navy Flake

4: aged Escudo

5: and just for old time's sake I had one bowl of Dan's Blue Note.

Has anyone found any disk style tobacco they would recommend, or better yet an intact rope?
Thanks,
Cutter
