Pirate Kake… I love me some Latakia, and this has it in spades, y’all. It’s also made in South Carolina, so it’s cheaper.

Dunhill 965. About 10 years old from a bulk purchase (from back when they used to sell it in bulk). Sure wish they would do so again.

Esoterica Stonehaven. This and Tilbury are the only two Esoterica blends I appreciate. Still wouldn’t pay secondary scalper prices for them.

@Hloridison I love Hal o’ the Wynd, but Old Gowrie is a stunner, especially with some age. I just put up a kilo of HotW, but missed the bags of OG. I’ll be jarring several kilos of that when it comes back around. My advice is to start with the 100g tin of Old Gowrie to make sure you like it (you will if you like HotW), and then start with the bags. Red Rapparee is another Rattray’s favorite of mine.

@pantsBoots thank you for the info. The gowrie is pure virginia, right? Virginia is always better when matured.

@Hloridison I believe Old Gowrie also has Perique and Kentucky, though in lesser amounts than Brown Clunee (stronger in Perique) and Hal o the Wynd (stronger in Kentucky). They’re all great, but I prefer the Old Gowrie because it lets more of the mature Virginias shine in through.
