I had a chance to get War Horse at B&M, I declined because I'm not sure if I could handle the nicotine and the taste is polarizing; plus it's a notoriously heavy ghoster. Now that we know STG plans to discontinue it I kinda regret not taking the chance.
Will have to give this one a try! Sounds great!This was a very pleasant surprise.

War Horse Bar
War Horse Bar is a plug tobacco made in the tradition of the long-missing Irish tobacco. Made of darker, earthier leaf, War Horse Bar has a singular top note added, and the tobacco is pressed and cut into plugs. The flavor and body are astoundingly stout, and is definitely meant for the experienced pipe enthusiast. If you love robust and bold pipe tobacco, War Horse Bar will become a staple for you.
This is a great tobacco. Now, take this with a grain of salt as I am naturally drawn to any Vaburs, especially when they have DFK mixed in. With that said, it is a great smoke. This is a very earthy smoke with a touch of cherry smell, even though I don't think it has any casings, so this may just be my taste buds. Lots of hay and tones along with some richer Virginia flavor. Getting used to plug tobacco is something I need to work on, but it breaks apart pleasantly and burns very easily and smoothly. As far as the tobacco itself it has no after bite at all, but I must warn you that it is STRONG. I can't remember the last time I got a buzz off of tobacco, but I have got two from this one tin. One was completely my fault because I ate nothing and went to it. That was a big buzz. The other time was a smaller one, but it was on a second bowl.
I recommend it wholly, and this is going into my stable.
Better hurry, friend. It's been discontinued, so once the stores run out that's it for War Horse.
