If you could only choose one what would it be?

My favorite is GH Bosun Cut Plug.

 

[Chasing Embers]

Rich Dark Honeydew

 

[hoosierpipeguy]

The one in your cellar not stinking mine up.

Tempted to say the one I’m smoking now - Coniston Cut Plug. Frickin good.

 

[lelik]

Samuel Gawith Lakeland Dark and 1792 Flakes.

Horrible stuff. Stinks up the place. Don't buy them. Hoarders be gone!

A member sent me an unopened tin of Brown Sugar Flake, which is not often seen at U.S. online retailers, and it was a superb Virginia flake, about the best I've had. I don't smoke Lakelands much, but this one is a favorite.

I like Grousemoor and Kendal Cream Flake. Had a moldy box of Kendal Cream arrive in the last SG drop and was really bummed. Used to be the one SG that no one bought!

I used to think Grousemoor smelled like Grandma. After a while I grew to like it.

 

[PaulTheScandinavian]

Perhaps Consiston Cut Plug,G&H Rum Flake , G&H Brown sugar Flake
I do also Like Both Condors RR and Long Cut but these would not count , as these ain't Lakeland Mixtures per se

 

[Jwebb90]

This is a genre I have yet to explore. The only quasi Lakeland I’ve tried is Stonehenge Flake.

 

[agnosticpipe]

If only one, it would be Glengarry Flake. Typical Lakeland blend but more on the fruity side rather than flowery.

 

[davidintexas]

Another vote for Bosun Cut Plug, although Dark Flake scented is awful good too

 

[indoeuro]

Grousemoor all the way!

 

[kimbiker]

No. 1 - Rich Dark Honeydew, followed by, Coniston, Rum, Bosun, No.7.

 

[paulfg]

The now defunct Dark Flake/Plug scented

 

[smudgersmissingleg]

Ennerdale Flake, I love that stuff. I don't know if it counts as a Lakeland but Gawith Aromatic Twist is pretty amazing as well.

 

[northernpipeshed]

Nessmuk Navy Plug.........not a big fan of most Lakelands....but this was great.
Unfortunately no longer with us............(and yes..... Dark Plug Rum is quite different and not for me)

 

[mycroftholmes]

Coniston Cut plug, Dark XX plug (very strong tobacco, only a small amount needed. Only sold in 25g plug), Rum flake, Westmorland slices

 

[CoffeeAndBourbon]

Only GH I have had is from my Secret Santa (Thanks!) and it is the Rum Flake. I can detect some of what I suspect is the classic Lakeland fragrance in there and I quite enjoy that.

Not to be a wiseacre, Bracken Flake is my favorite, or more accurately, least unfavorite, Lakeland. It's like 1792 Lite to me. I had my one half bowl of 1792 from the Tobacco Village near Allentown. That satisfied my lifetime quota. I loaded up a half bowl in a sacrificial pressed meerschaum, lit up and thought "What's the big deal". So I saddled up and drove up the road toward a ffishing spot. About five minutes in, I realized I had to pull over and stop. The cumulative effects of the nic and Lakeland just overwhelmed me. But I've enjoyed the tin of Bracken Flake I had and am hoarding my remaining tins for when I hit male menopause.
