Looking for some suggestions on non-aromatics that you've found to have a lot of sweetness to them. Really been taking to Virginias lately, especially the sweetness that you can get out of them.

McClelland 5100 Red Cake for a good bulk blend.
The Gatsby Luxury Flake mentioned by Mark is very good. You can get it at Cigarsinternational for only $5.99 a tin right now too.
Of course for a straight Virginia blend, I'm partial to Full Virginia Flake.
Lastly I will throw one out there that is listed as an aromatic but is not at all like the goopy chemical tasting ones most people think of. MacBaren Virginia No. 1 is very tasty and sweet. Doesn't taste like cough syrup either.
***CORRECTION***
I just looked on another site and it turns out some list VA No. 1 as a aro and some do not. I dunno.
It's really good though.Last edited by Cool Breeze; 03-12-2016 at 12:21 AM.

Geez, Blake. This will probably bloat my "To Try" list.

I agree with @Cool Breeze about the FVF; after having several bowls of it, I'm impressed with it.

I have a small sample of that in the cabinet and have really enjoyed it. I plan to place another tobacco order soon so this thread is going to build up that cart. And of course FVF is sold out at both 4noggins and smokingpipes. Hopefully one of them get more in before I place my order.
