Ok folks it's that time again. Time to celebrate another year of freedom and break out the fireworks! Let's see your favorite patriotic tobacco this month!
As always, last month's runner up will start us off.
Samuel Gawith Navy Flake (http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/2218/samuel-gawith-navy-flake) - Storm-tossed seas, a howling wind, a ship with full sail beating into the wind and Jolly Jack Tar at the helm with his trusty pipe. Images which are conjured up whilst smoking Samuel Gawith's Navy Flake. A traditional offering of Virginias, pressed with just the right amount of Latakia and flavoured with Rum. Medium strength.

Any more? Come on guys! I'd like to have a few more when I put the poll up!
Samuel Gawith Navy Flake (http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/2218/samuel-gawith-navy-flake) - Storm-tossed seas, a howling wind, a ship with full sail beating into the wind and Jolly Jack Tar at the helm with his trusty pipe.

Frog Morton (http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/768/mcclelland-frog-morton) - An exceptionally dark, rich and full Latakia Mixture designed for those who desire really satisfying Latakia flavor but want a pipe tobacco soft enough to smoke anytime. It took Frog Morton four years designed for smoking in quiet serenity. It is his proudest achievement. Notes: The name Frog Morton comes to us from the works of JRR Tolkien. Frogmorton: A village in the Eastfarthing of the Shire. It stood on the East Road, between the Three-farthing Stone (fourteen miles to the west) and the Brandywine Bridge (twenty-two miles to the east). Immediately to the north of the village, the stream known as the Water broke into two, creating a wide watery region - this feature seems to have given Frogmorton its name, which means "frog marsh".

How about C&D Five O'Clock Shadow (http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/6784/cornell-diehl-five-oclock-shadow-working-mans-series) "Red Virginias and perique, pressed into a cake with a pinch of dark-fired Kentucky for an extra bit of depth, C&D's "Five O'Clock Shadow" is blended to provide that simple sort of treat we could all use when the workday is, finally, over."

What's more patriotic than Mississippi River?
I never had any but it sounds patriotic to me. Not many things were more instrumental to the settling of our nation than the mighty Mississippi :pipe:

Cool Breeze Paul that's a great addition! Let's get one more and I'll put the poll up this evening!

Mississippi River (http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend/3066/seattle-pipe-club-mississippi-river) - Mississippi River is a smooth, medium blend of pressed red and stoved Virginia tobaccos with a unique balance of Louisiana Perique and just a touch of Cyprian Latakia which makes this krumble kake tobacco a complex and rich smoke with a lovely sweet finish that lingers nicely on the palate. This Seattle Pipe Club Blend was created by our master blending guru, Joe Lankford, and is now being blended and offered for sale by our friends at pipesandcigars.com. A major hit with members who like Virginias and/or English blends - very gentle on the tongue for an all day smoke. Notes: Smooth, creamy, rich, lightly smoky and appropriately sweet, with hints of dried fruits and a touch of dark chocolate.

A belief in magic is not a prerequisite for enjoying this unique English Blend of Mocha Slices, Latakia, and Perique.
