Top 3 Favorite Aromatics

[DeaconPiper]

Old Toby from Country Squire, Hobbit Weed, Autumn Evening.

 

[minerLuke]

Hmm top 3 aromatics? Hard to narrow it down since there are a lot of great ones but I smoke the most of:

1. Borkum Riff Bourbon
2. Lane 1Q/ Captain Black Royal
3. Smoker’s Pride Cherry

 

[Peter Turbo]

Wilke Rumcake
Boswells Pipers Pleasure
LJ Peretti 101

Theres others I like a lot and smoke but if I had to pick three right now, there you go.

 

[Chalaw87]

Several people have mentioned MB Vanilla Roll Cake. How does this compare to MB Vanilla Flake?

I agree with fireground. I also find the roll cake to be a little smoother/less rough edges. I typically will shred the roll cake into more a ribbon type preparation.

 

[ThermionicScott]

1. MB Vanilla Roll Cake
2. C&D Visions of Celephaïs
3. SG Grousemoor

I must say that I have a lot of aromatics in the cellar that I haven't tried yet, so this list may look different in the future!

 

[Snook]

1. Peter Stokkebye - Peaches & Cream
2. The Country Squire - Old Toby (or whatever it's called now)
3. Lane - MV1000 (Captain Black Gold)

For my own entertainment, and to help me figure out which aromatic to buy next, I created an alphabetical list of the recommendations so far.... The number in parenthesis after each tobacco is how many mentions it has received so far.

The winner is Sir Walter Raleigh with 7 mentions. It also appears that Mac Baren has a corner on vanilla aromatics, which a total of 9 mentions over 3 versions of vanilla.

It also looks like you can't go wrong with aromatics from C&D, GH, Mac Baren, and Sutliff.

Old Toby from Country Squire, Hobbit Weed, Autumn Evening.

I believe Old Toby has been renamed Tombigbee, which I just tried for the first time the other day. I love it!

Wow, this is awesome! I was planning on doing this at some point too, but I had no idea we've had this many recommendations!!

 

[fireground_piper]

I’d put an asterisk next to SWRA. Once it left the US, there's been many complaints around the regular at least. Proceed with caution and/or optimism.

 

[64alex]

I am biased toward GH & SG blends so mine are:
GH Ennerdale
SG Cannon Plug
GH Rum Flake

 

[rsshreck32]

Late to the party as usual, but:
1. LJ Peretti Thanksgiving Day
2. Country Squire Parson's Blend
3. JM Boswell's Sweet Dreams

 

[tmcg81]

1Q
Scarecrow
Watch City Stubb's Pipe

 

[happy_lunter]

These three are top of my memory although, there are so many others, that I really really liked:
1. Rattray’s Exotic Passion
2. Cult’s Blood Red Moon
3. Wilke’s Vermont Maple Cavendish

 

[Architeuthis]

Stanwell Melange
Scotty's Trout Stream
Match Flying Dutchman

 

[SoupCan]

pretty limited experience but so far I’m a fan of…

1. C&D Autumn Evening
2. Rattray’s Bagpiper’s Dream
3. Bills Blend from Rich’s Cigar in Portland, OR

 

[AndyNJ]
