Crossroads

Filed under Product News, Tobacco News {no comments}

Well its a sad day. Gauntleys has now sold out of crossroads and we don’t have anything to offer as an alternative, as such.

I have been messing about with a few ideas, none are perfect but hey its something.

For Strength

You could mix pueblo or American spirit with either a dark Virginia (75% gold, 25% dark). This will have a halfzware style flavour but be light.

For Flavour

You could mix some Turkish in there, again 25% Turkish to a base of pueblo or American spirit. This is the closet I have got but it lacks the umph. I’ve tried using dark with Turkish but it looses its taste.

So for now we have nothing perfect to replace crossroads, but Atleast there is something we can switch too. None of these blends are as natural but still relativly clean compared to your usual big tobaccos.

Catch you after the break.
