Favorite Balkans
I suppose I have become a Balkan fanatic. After 6-7 years smoking a pipe, Balkans are what I have tended to go to. It is the strong perfume/incense/Laphroig aromas that I love
What are some of your favorites? Balkan Sobraine is my current #1 (oos everywhere now though) Penzance is #2 (Also OOS) Blue Mountain / Squadron leader and Gawaith Balkan Blend are my other go to's. |

Re: Favorite Balkans
McClelland's Samovar - Excellent and incense(y)
Smokers Haven - Exotique - pungent and stinky like Penzance=awesome GLP - Abingdon McClelland - Bombay Court Extra - great balkan with some oomph. These are just a few of my faves as a balkan/oriental fanatic. |

Re: Favorite Balkans
Balkan sobranie never did it for me, still have a few sealed packs from '08 when I scored some.
My goto was nightcap for a long time, just a nice mellow smoke and really what I measure all other balkans by. |

Re: Favorite Balkans
I enjoy Samovar myself, but I believe it's an Oriental (which I enjoy too)
Balkan Sasieni - a very tasty smoke when burned in the meerschaums...
