Great smell out of the bag and the room note is very nice. The whiskey taste is the only reason to buy this because you're not going to taste much else. I do get a light citrus and grass from the tobacco, though. It may need a light hydration. Mine was a little dry. If you smoke it dry, puff moderately. The nic-hit is mild. Won't bite or get harsh. Burns slightly fast with a fairly cool, consistent, clean and smooth flavor. Has a nice richness to the taste. Leaves very little moisture in the bowl and easily burns to ash without many relights. Has a nice after taste. An all day smoke.

I really need to catch up on my reviews... I moved from Vegas to Fort Lauderdale a year ago to help my sick dad and boy what a shock the humidity has been!! Forget about Latakia, Balkans, campfires, falling leaves etc.. hot and sweaty, great if your with a woman but miserable pipe weather.. that said I’ve been trying anything Burley or cavendish based. A plus is the average age here is 130 so the locals love my pipe... my uncle this, grandpa that, smells lovely etc..

I just purchased a Peterson Christmas 2015 pipe I’ve been hunting for years, brand new in box from Switzerland. (The blasted billiard with a bronze stem and silver band, IMHO the prettiest Peterson) and am breaking it in with SPW... Smoker’s Pride blends were on sale for pennies on the dollar, of the choices, whiskey and the BC seemed my best options. The BC is of course Lane’s BCA and the Whiskey I’m thinking CB White with the Vanilla toppings replaced. For me it burns cool, smells nice and isn’t a wimp. Added some 5 bros and I was in business.. not ashamed to say I really really enjoy this blend! 🤷🏼‍♂️ Oh btw this blends fantastically with Storm Front! SF with its cigar doesn’t win friends but add a pinch of whiskey and the pitchforks are put away!

The pouch note is sweet and I can believe it is whiskey. Hydration is about right to smoke. It comes in a 12 oz. bag from the local Low Bob's, and is a "value" mild aromatic.

Smoked, it is sweet and burns cool. It is easy to get lit and has a pleasant room note. I don't get much tobacco flavor, but the burley is a little nutty and I pick up some "hay," so I think the base is a VaBur. The end of the bowl had a slightly bitter taste. I had a little dottle and some dampness in the heel, and it might benefit from some drying time.

As aromatics go, I think this is a good one to recommend. It is an easy smoke, and it tastes good. It is mild but not so boring it has me reaching for OJK after I have had a bowl. I can believe this would be a great "all-day" smoke for someone looking for a mild aromatic with a decent taste that is not vanilla.

To be honest this is not a brand I would usually buy seeing that I'm not a fan of bulk tobacco.

Well I bought some today because it was a great deal and looked appealing. It came in a 12 ounce bag that rather looked cheap in my opinion but the tobacco looked just fine. The price was $19 dollars which is a great deal for anything tobacco related in this tough economy.

Upon opening the bag it smelled strong of casing/topping. I don't normally smoke tobaccos that smell like this, also I detected some nicotine which led me to believe it would be alright.

Once I lit the tobacco in my new pipe I figured I had wasted my money until I had tamped it down about 2 times. For some odd reason it got more flavorful every time I tamped it down. Honestly it did bite alot at first but got smoother as it burned.

The second bowl about half an hour ago prior to writing this review was much better once I had experience with the new tobacco. My Medico V.F.Q. bulldog makes every tobacco really amazing for some reason although I have no idea why. Not so much tongue bite this time around so I puffed it a little faster than the last time. The small bowl burned for about 25 minutes.

Conclusion: If you want a decent bulk tobacco for a good price, put some thought in buying this one. It really is a good cheap aromatic, I can say that even though I prefer alot of English blends now. Another advantage of this tobacco is that I can clearly judge it will last at least over 2 months if I smoke it five times a day. And the most important thing to remember is that it tastes good for being cheap. Enjoy!

Wonderful smell in the pouch, that did not translate to a very good smoke. There is a saying; you don't cook with wine that you wouldn't drink. By that reasoning, you shouldn't case tobacco with whiskey that you wouldn't drink. Not awful, but no reason to visit this again.

To me came dry, and smoked harsh. Had a sharp note to it that hit the roof of my mouth wrong. Room note was not given the thumbs up by the missus. Said it burned her nose. Not a judgement, just an observation.

I'm re-learning I've never fully liked a whiskey topped tobacco from anyone Just not my thing I suppose.

Having said that, mixed 50/50 with black Cavendish, this changes into a surprisingly good smoke.

Too strong a flavor and burns too hot by itself, but mix it with th SP black cavindish and you got a cheap winner without as many additives imo as a captain black, I.e it won’t make you noxious. And people of course love the smell and won’t treat you like Gollum for smoking around them.

Not a bad budget tobacco. Pouch and room note are quite good. The tobacco lit well and burns to ash, perhaps a little quicker than I would like. The taste is all whiskey, with no evidence of tobacco coming through. There is nothing unique about this tobacco, but it is better than some more expensive blends I have tried

The pouch note is pleasant and so is the room note. The whiskey flavoring is good and lasts throughout the bowl. The flavor however, is one dimensional, so I wouldn't smoke this more than once a day. Three stars

This blend, being readily available in many smoke shops for bulk buy, may catch the eye of those looking to make due with what is readily available. I say this from person experience. With this being said, I have no negative words with the exception of the truth of the matter: This blend is a last resort. The taste is highly chemical with the first couple lights, which slowly goes away after one thoroughly burns the top portion of the pack. After which, slight hints of whiskey, and vanilla slowly penetrate the hot smoke, giving one a sliver of hope, which is swiftly broken after several more puffs. The taste is there, but there is very little satisfaction, only prompting the smoker to either put the pipe down, or to continuously puff to find more. The whiskey flavoring (if you even call it that) is a mix of vanilla, and something else. The note from the bag is slightly pleasant, but prompts itself nowhere during the smoke. Again, this should be a last resort; better than most of the cheap bulk bag brands, but not a daily smoker.
