    must try shags?

    Love me some Shag and looking for some recommendations. I do smoke Dark Birdseye and Kendal Kentucky religiously but am looking for others that are good, great, favs or just different. Any smaller blenders with shag blends?

    I honestly wish that you could order certain blends in shag.


    What shags are out there??

    Some of the D&R shags are great. I'm thinking specifically Picayune (a fine ribbon, or chunky shag), Ryback (halfzware, very tasty and strong) and Three Sails (mild-medium VA, maybe not in your wheelhouse).

    Of course there's also 5 brothers, sure you tried that.

    D&R Three Sails, Picayune, Cockstrong (false advertising BTW ), PS Amsterdam are ones I dig, to name a few. The Three Sails and Amsterdam make fine RYO cigarettes also - Mrs. Bruck likes.

    If you lived in the UK and told people "my favorite shag is cockstrong" they wouldn't be thinking tobacco.

    Can't believe a post by Shemp about shagging hasn't led to a single joke about the obvious!

    I had shag carpet in my first house back in 1979. I assume that's what you're talking about?...
