McClelland Grey Havens
(2.62)
A harmonious blend of lightly fragrant matured Virginia and premium white burley with just a hint of Louisiana perique. You experience the rich taste of fine natural tobaccos and those around you enjoy a mellow and pleasing fragrance.
Notes: The name Grey Havens is taken from the works of JRR Tolkien. Grey Havens: Mithlond, the harbors of CÃrdan at the eastern end of the Gulf of Lhûn, from which the Elves of the north of Middle-earth passed into the West during the later Ages.

OK, I said "Recommended" but it comes with caveats. First off, it's downright wet. It smells like ripe fruit juice mixed with fine tobacco. Open it when it arrives, air it for a few days before you smoke it or it won't stay lit. Once past the moisture and nose, it really is a nice tobacco. I'm afraid to ask what it's flavored with, it might scare me away.
I think the fact that Frodo, et al., now live in Grey Havens pulls me into the mystique of the mixture and I will continue to smoke it on occassion. Buy the 50 gr tin first, make sure you like it.
