I see that most SG tobaccos are out of stock via US online retailers. Would one assume the ones that are not have been sitting around a long time?
@snuffandsympathy SG tobacco disappears quickly when it comes in stock. Especially the Full Virginia Flake
That is one I have never had, but it sound like it would be in my wheelhouse!
I am a VaPer guy. Through in some dark fired Kentucky and I am good to go!
I opened a mason jar of Homborger Veermaster that I canned in June of '13.
The minute I opened it I was greeted with a strong plummy scent. Virginia’s are wonderful after five or ten years of aging.
GH Grasmere flake.
My Mixture 965, my first pipe tobacco. Love the whatever little smoky flavour I can detect. Am told thats the Latakia I’m tasting. Do we have snuffs like that? Like a typical English blend or the so-called Lat Bomb?
Yes, SWS Latakia Blend contains Latakia tobacco.

Mind you, this snuff comes non-alkalized. Description is misleading, though - the actual potency is low.
Rattrays Hal‘o the wynd in the pipe and some sws 50/50 in the nose. Nice combo
Pease Quiet Nights. Great, oriental-heavy bowl
@bolbam420 i also like Latakia blends in the pipe. Early morning pipe for example. Sir Walter Scott’s Latakia blend is a really nice toasted Virginia with some Latakia. The scent comes close to a slow smoked pipe tobacco for me. Just delicious.
Golden Flake by Pfeifen Huber. Virginia Flake with a little little orange and honey flavoring.
1792 Flake. Just picked it up today, nice and strong.
Samuel Gawith Full Virginia Flake. Top tier!
3P in a Pete Harp 150
Solani Aged Burley Flake. Good fresh or aged - just got into a new tin as my 10+ year old tin is now gone.
Mac Baren HH Burley Flake. Very good, but pales in comparison to the Solani.
Pfeifen Huber Balkan Mixture. It is a Balkan Sobranie Clone and really really tasty stuff. @pantsBoots the Solani Burley is so damn good
