English & Balkan Blends
My preferences lean towards the more full, robust pipe blends. Would anyone be able to give recommendations for some excellent English, Balkan and Oriental Blends that are on the more robust side. One caveat - no Perique, please!

Comoy's Cask Nš 11 is a pretty good traditional Balkan. I tried this one and it got me on trying their other stuff, which I also like, so far.

Oh yeah, Gawith and Hoggarth Mixture #12. This is probably my quintessential English.

Re: English & Balkan Blends
Good suggestions. My favorites thus far are Dunhill Nitecap and 965, McClelland Old Dog and CPCC Scottish Woods, Penzance (of course), Balkan Sasieni and Sutliff Berkshire for a mild, smooth English. Not much of a fan of Perique. Tried C&D's Epiphany,Bayou Night, and Bayou Morning - all from bulk. Didn't care for any of them, but admit that I wonder if bulk was not as good as tinned pipe blends would be.
