Which no longer produced tobacco blend do you or will you miss the most?

[B.Lew]

Stonehenge Flake. The best blend my palate has ever tasted. RIP. Louisiana Flake is not the same blend to my plebeian taster.

 

[BriaronBoerum]

I came to the pipe too late for anything from McClelland, and almost everything from Mac Baren. Like others have said, there are any number of blends that used to be legendary but have fallen from their Olympian heights. But of the ones I have tried, I wish I'd bought WCC Simply Orange when it was around, and I would love to have some Escudo in its pre-Peterson version.

Three or four Dunhill blends from the 60s and 70s. Early Morning Pipe the most I suppose. But, there were/are plenty of other blends to fill the void.

Being a hoarder who has a cellar a mile wide, I still have some of my missed blends.

Also, I was still pretty new when some of these went extinct, so I didn't have the breadth of experience with McClelland, say. So I pine for those that I DID smoke a lot.

Mac Baren Navy Flake. With 5 years on it, it is sublime.
Mac Baren HH ODF.
Mac Baren HH Vintage Syrian
McClelland 5125 Coyote Classic
McClelland Royal Cajun Ebony
Tsuge (Drew Estate) Fujin The Wind God

Edward G. Robinson. That's one of my all time favorites. I really wish I could have stocked up on that one. And not even trying to find something. And then the other one is Dark Twist. Two of my regulars gone for good.
It's fine because I still have Yorktown and Pegasus.

Hudson's Bay from Brigham. Sometimes referred to as Royal Yacht light it never seemed to sell well, but I liked it alot.

 

[Tn Steve]

Err match, Egr , super value rum

 

[Richmond B. Funkenhouser]

D&R blends.

Picayune is the one I miss the most.

 

[wyfbane]

D&R blends.

Picayune is the one I miss the most.

All 3 of the Rimboche blends were pretty awesome, too.

 

[sablebrush52]

Motzek Strang. The new owner, who was trained by Frau Motzek, is clueless.

 

[PaulTheScandinavian]

Amphora Burley and Kentucky Blends

 

[JOHN72]

Most Mac Baren tobaccos in flake.

 

[judcole]

Of the recently discontinued, Amphora Virginia and Sutliff Virginia Slices.

 

[BingBong]

Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique, highly addictive and much missed.

Bell's Three Nuns as was. I have an occasional bowl of the current iteration and it's decent in its own right, just ought to have a different name now.

I'm new to pipe smoking, so there are some that I "miss" in the sense of never having tried:
- I've never tried McClelland blends;
- I've never tried Mac Baren, except for a bowl of ODF, but I have a tin of Burley Flake, 2 of ODF, and a few bowls of other flakes stashed away: I'd like to have tried the legendary Plumcake, though;
- I can't really miss what I've never experienced: I don't know what I don't know, but I'm thankful for the variety we do have.

Tobaccos I've smoked that I'll miss when my supply is gone:
- Kendal No.7 will be top of the list;
- Edgeworth RR Match;
- despite rumors, I hope that Tabac Manil will not fall into this category soon (Vincent is my favorite Belgian!). Reserve du Patron is one of my favorites.

 

[Pypkė]

Mac Baren HH Old Dark Fired and HH Bold Kentucky.

I also hope that Tabac Manil semois will continue to be produced. The writing on the wall doesn't look good. La Brumeuse was my favorite. I have a pack each of La Brumeuse and Reserve Du Patron left. Saving it for the summer.

 

[anantaandroscoggin]

The English Blend as produced by the Vottis brothers at their Vottis Pipe Shop in Schenectady New York. The closest I've ever found was not quite 2/3 there from the Vottis recipe.

 

[Sea Lord]

Balkan Sobranie; even if it was in a pouch. It was still a great tobacco.

Four Square Green and Blue (round tins).

Amphora Irish Mead.

 

[RAGallup]

I really mourn Balkan Sobranie 759.
