The well respected J. F. Germain & Son Co. is the producer (it is tinned by Cornell & Diehl though):

Burning some Captain Earle's Ten Russians in my big Sands. Instantly in my top 5. Big, bold, smooth with plenty of Lat kick.

Burning some Butera's Royal Vintage Latakia No.1. Really good blend.
On a scale of 1-10, how gooood is it?

I love Latakia, so keep that in mind. A solid 8.5. I've read that their No. 2 blend is even better, but I haven't tried it yet.
Nice

They're both blended by McClelland, so you know the quality of tobacco & craftsmanship is top notch too. Definitely worth a try.Nice

I will have to put it on my mile long wish list, McClelland has always had great blends to try. I was going to pick up some tins on my next go, but I am digging the Gawith, hoggarth&co Dark Kendal. Not much of a smell to it when packing, but the shag cut is great. About half way through the bowl it gave off a nice punch and flavor. I may have to pick up a pounder of it...and then some tins.....and some more tins....

I haven't tried Dark Kendal yet....I do have 10 tins of various McClelland blends on the way to me as we speak though.
Lol, "sigh". It's a never ending circle, once you buy that first batch of baccy you are on the long and windy road of endless tobacco purchases. I'm sure they have a name for what is wrong with us!I haven't tried Dark Kendal yet....I do have 10 tins of various McClelland blends on the way to me as we speak though.

McClelland has easily become my favorite baccy maker. Almost all there blends are stellar in my book!They're both blended by McClelland, so you know the quality of tobacco & craftsmanship is top notch too. Definitely worth a try.Nice

Lol. I'm already eyeing my next purchase - I think I'm gonna explore the whole GL Pease line next. I'm pretty sure the disease is called OCD.
Totally agree. Every blend of theirs I've tried has been fantastic. These 10 new tins I've got coming tomorrow should give me a damn good start on exploring their entire line too.
