This is an almost impossible question for me to answer because if I like it, I stock it fairly deep. But a few that I want to keep on hand at all times would be:
Newminster 400
ODF
Yorktown
Epiphany
Double Down (first smoke put this in the keeper category)
Almost everything I've had from Watch City

Since I started thinking about this yesterday, I've been looking around to see if i can find one or the other. TAD has fully kicked in, and I feel that rest will not come until I get some floral soap in my pipe..Thelonious monkfish wrote: ↑Sat Jan 05, 2019 5:20 pmJust jump in with Ennerdale or Grasmere. Both are potent offerings in terms of essence, if you absolutely hate them then don't bother with exploring the others as even the unscented stuff would likely offend/confuse you. I would add plenty more GH/SG blends into regular rotation if the availability/price were more agreeable. Cannon Plug....mmmmmmmm.

Grasmere, Ennerdale, Coniston, Lakeland et al are a realm I need to explore. Closest I have come to Lakeland is St. Bruno, which I really like a lot, so it'd make sense to gateway into the hard stuff.
Lookin' like it's going to be a while too, since everyone seems to be out of stock on everything G&H and SG. I thought I saw somewhere that G&H was changing/updating all their labels, so maybe that is part of the holdup?

MacBaren Golden Extra .. It's my go to and I always have it fresh / semi fresh and aged .. always
Vintage Three Nuns ... I'll never let this blend go .. never . I'm always looking and RARELY finding . It and Edgeworth Slices , which I never luck out on sadly . But yes , i always have vintage 3 nuns
IRC Old Colonial ... God knows how much I love it , so God allows me to have it on hand
An all black cavendish , mildly flavored . It could be one of a number but it's gotta be all or damn near all black . Some good examples would be Lane Dark Red , Smokers Pride Black Cavendish or MacBaren Black Ambrosia etc ... I have to have my black cavendish at least once or twice a day
I have other blends I usually have on hand but those are the must always for sure
