| I have always respected Davidoff: for their fine cigars, and for their cigarettes. When I used to smoke cigarettes, theirs were the best. As a consequence, I couldn't help trying this pipe tobacco, the only blend in their line which is imported in Italy. Well, I would have hoped something better from this roughly-cut, scotch whiskey-flavored cavendish/burley... The tin aroma is overwhelmingly sweet, but the smoke isn't much: it is almost pungent, spicy, despite the only average strength. I like it moderately, but the main problem is that I grow quickly tired of it. Sometimes I don't even finish the bowl, also because it tends to burn a bit wet and bite slightly. The room aroma, despite the sweetness of the tin smell, is pungent, too, and not very pleasant to some. An average tobacco, rather nice if smoked slowly, but without the necessary appeal to make it enter in my "always to have at home" group.

| Good quality tobacco, cased with Scotch whiskey. If you appreciate an aromatic smoke, this one is for you. It is similar to other whiskey cased mixtures (e.g., Radford?s Old Scotch), but perhaps with a little more body and depth. The tin aroma is too heavy for my taste, but my SLW finds it agreeable. It is easy to pack, but not that easy to light. I think there is PG in this one, as the first puffs tickle my nostrils and produce an astringent effect in the throat. It does not burn cool. The flavour is alright, in that it does taste of tobacco, but eventually the casing overpowers the taste and settles in the pipe (NB: if you don?t want your briar to taste of sweet Scotch for weeks, don?t try it!). All in all, this mixture is closer to Irish coffee than it is to tobacco or Scotch whisky. Not bad if you like a sweet, aromatic smoke. Personally, I would rather drink Scotch than smoke it.
