The Best Budget Tobaccos

[Baxter Van West]

Hey all,

I've been wondering about budget pipe tobaccos and whether or not they're worth my time. I've been looking in particular at Carter Hall, Captain Black, and Mac Baren Seven Seas blends and I've been wondering if they're any good whatsoever. I know Captain Black is basically Lane Limited floor tobacco, but it seems like people like it. What budget tobaccos would you good people of Society of Smoke recommend?

Really comes down to personal taste, I like carter hall, but would rather smoke nothing than CPT black, But I know guys that swear by it. Another to take a look at is the Super Value line, its the Sutliff floor swppeing brand, and i know a guy that would rather buy that than the main line stuff.

I'd just keep an eye out for one of the specials on Peter Stok bulk. You can get that for stuff pretty cheap sometimes.

I’ve enjoyed half n half. Killed a pouch off, was so easy to smoke.

Carter Hall is good, I like Prince Albert better. Ditto on the Stokkebye bulk if you like Virginias

Pipes and Cigars has Lane 1Q at well less than $2 an ounce right now and I swear by that stuff. A must try if you haven't yet

Everyone’s tastes are different. I rather enjoy Captain Black and smoke it almost everyday.

I don't understand the need for "budget" tobaccos, is it really necessary since good stuff isn't that much more pricey? <Debbie downer

Same thought here and life is too short to smoke shit tobacco.

I really like alot of the P&C English and Balkan blends...Can be had for cheap during the sales.

In general I would consider most pipe tobacco budget friendly in comparison to cigars. I really enjoy Carter Hall & would actually pay more for it if the price ever went up just because I enjoy it. But it all goes back to smoke what you enjoy. If you enjoy a cheap blend, then lucky you.

If you like CH you got to try Cherokee from the Country Squire. Home - The Country Squire Tobacconist

Country squire makes some nice blends

I agree with the “budget baccy” being redundant. Thats said my daily is MacBaren Virginia 1, buy it buy the pound. Otherwise Stokebye is pretty solid across the board and usually on the “cheaper” side.
