After trying a few blends, I can say my favourites are
Aromatic:

Erinmore Mixture

Captain Black Cherry
English:

Dunhill My Mixture 965

Dunhill EMP
And for the fifth: It is a tie between Dunhill NC and Captain Black Lane Limited

 
I smoke quite a bit of PS LTF and LNF with the flakes twisted together. I think of this as one blend for me. In fact if this was all I could get, I'd be content.

Astleys 109 and Escudo also are two favorites. H&H Freight Train is always close at hand. And, I have enough Dark Star to take me to the end of my days.

But, the only reason I didn't mention a McClelland red Virginia as one of my five, is that there is not one specific blend by them that I prefer over the others. I guess I could just have said that any McClelland Virginia. But, all in all, I love diversity, and there are many, many, many blends that I love.

Your list must include a virginia , an english and an aromatic blend .
Those can overlap, so:
1. Royal Yacht (Virginia/Aromatic)

2. Old Joe Krantz

3. Brown Twist Sliced

4. Five Brothers

5. Irish Flake
But five is too few!
And, as dadgy says:
Tomorrow's top 5 may differ

I'm very much looking forward to a new blend, "Bass Pond." Drwatson, you're a smoker after my own heart!
