| I bought several tins of the Civil War series from Old Virginia Tobacco Company. While I'm still fairly new to pipe smoking, Gettysburg is an enjoyable blend. It is a little moist in the tin and smells of strong coffee and dark cocoa. Burns extremely cool and is hard to get any bite. Flavor is of tobacco with a slight coffee taste on the back of the tongue. Stays lit well except for bottom being a little moist at end of smoke. Overall a good smoke for me.

| I was a little hesitant to try this at first because I couldn't smell the coffee at all and the toby smelled a little "funky"! Now I am glad I did try this. It's not often that I find a tobacco that I like, but this one is one of those precious few.
Tastes enough to tingle your senses, but not enough to bury the tobacco. Clean, easy and "honest".
Will upgrade this from my Occasional jar to my Regular jar! :D Too bad it isn't made anymore!

| This is an easy smoking blend just made for a cob and a Fall afternoon. Heavily coffee-aromatic it has a pleasing coffee flavor and a room note that is wonderful. I am not a big aromatic smoker but Gettysburg, something of a novelty and now discontinued (but still in stock), is quite a lovely smoke.

| I am not sure how long ago this was produced. I yanked this one from my "cellar" a few months ago to see if the taste matched th tin description... It did. I sure could taste coffee (very bitter), and the tobacco was, well, to be quite blunt, rank.
I sure am glad this is no longer made. I'd hate for a new pipesmoker to give it a whirl and be turned off to the hobby.

| I can recomend this to enyone who like a wel blended tobacco. The history behind the blend is also interesting. Smoking Gettysburg gives you the plesure of enjoying cavendish with virginia and thinking of the soldiers under the war who put coffee grounds into their tobacco pouches to 'stretch' their supply of tobacco. So enjoy this historical and good taste.
