I need a pipe tobacco recommendation.

So when I did smoke a pipe, I really preferred Nording’s Labrador. Since it is no longer being produced, I need a replacement. Do any of you have some similar note recommendations.
 
While I've never tried either of these, I did look up the Nording’s Labrador and read the description. I then just googled hazelnut pipe tobacco and found Lane Limited Hazelnut, which has an almost identical description to the Nordings. Honestly I'd be surprised if the Nording wasn't just a Lane re-brand.

Anyway, this is my recommendation. I would also take a look at G.L. Pease The Virginia Cream

McClelland blended Nording tobacco. Which is why Nording is no longer available.
 
I really liked Dunhill Early Morning Pipe, which is no longer available. Somebody on here said that G.L. Pease Chelsea Morning is similar but better.

Labrador was one of my favorites too. I wouldn't say Molto Dolce is the same, but it is good, and might scratch your itch.

I really like Virginia Cream, and it's worth trying on its own merit, but I wouldn't buy it as a substitute for Labrador. Two completely different types of tobacco. No similarity at all.

I agree. I was only recommending the Lane Hazelnut as a replacement. I just threw the Virginia Cream out there as something he may like in general.
