If you enjoyed Cringle Flake, try Watch City's Rouxgaroux. It'll be released again on April 1st I believe... It's another sweeter VaPer blend, like Cringle.

Bayou Morning is absolutely nothing like Cringle. I find it to be more pepper forward and really harsh.

It is a challenge when you are new and do not have cellar and you will not pay 100$ for a 10 year old tin of unattainable

I don’t have an “aged” cellar either, but it’s growing. But, there are plenty of good smokes available that are ready out of the tin. Don’t be bullied into believing the bullshit that all tobaccos need to be stored 5-10 or more years to be enjoyed.

They simply would not be selling tobacco only for storing. Yes, some do good with some age - but, they’re sold to enjoy today also. ?‍♂️ You only get aged tobacco when you buy so much you can’t smoke it that fast. Eventually you get intentional - but, Jesus - please don’t do it because everyone else does. Most people with aged cellars have been smoking for many years. You just don’t start that way…and you don’t have to buy a $100 tin to enjoy pipes. Besides - more than likely one of those $10 tins you nab today will be one of those $100 tins in the future. So - perhaps it’s more relative than perceived. ?‍♂

Reminds me of a really good Burgundy wine. Sour, plum and other ripe dark fruit. My salivary glands were on over-drive all the next day with the amazing flavour. I'm now hooked and smoking a few bowls a week.
I place Virginia tobacco into generally 2 categories - red VAs and golden VAs. Cringle Flake 2021 is a red VA with perique. You description of sour, plum and other ripe dark fruits typically fits that red VAPer category.

VApers based on golden VAs, like Luxury Bullseye Flake, will taste very different. They’re not my favorite.

I just spent a year exploring VAs and VApers. You have to read the descriptions carefully to figure out which are based on red VAs. Many blends use both VAs.

There are lots of great VaPers out there.

The Country Squire 50th Anniversary gets very little to no talk, and it’s a really good VaPer.


The Country Squire 50th Anniversary review;


Be on the look out when it comes out this year from Watch City Cigar their Rouxgaroux, this is an amazing VaPer!

I do not trust my taste enough yet to buy 100$ worth of any blend. However it appears you can not lose money buying good blends. They just go up in value. I walked into a b&m they had 2021 Cringle Flake and Esoteric. I did not realize how scarce these blends are I only bought one tin of Esoteric and one tin of CF now I wish I had bought more ?

Some that might be easily obtainable and are really good would be the deluxe navy rolls from Peterson, Haddos delight from C&D and my favorite right now is poplar camp from C&D. Try reading some reviews on tobacco reviews and get a sense of what they are, considering the prices you have to deal with though.
