Apple Pipe Tobacco, a unique taste in smoking, is a superior blend of top quality... Burley and Virginia tobaccos flavored with the taste of apples. Apple tobacco brings to the pipe smoker the smoothness of fine tobaccos, the crisp taste of fresh apples and the refreshing aroma of both. Apples and tobacco, a natural combination.

I had been curious about this blend for a long time. I finally got a hold of some a few weeks ago. The smell in the pouch is...well, apple. The appearance is very similar to SWR of the new Lane Ready Rubbed. It was a nice moisture level. The blend loads easy. I found that it can be a bit tough to keep lit at first, but eventually settles down, and will stay lit to the bottom.
Now on to the flavor. At first, and I mean the very first time you smoke it, you taste apple. But then, you begin to look past that flavor. Half-way through a pouch, you hone in on a slightly sweet, slightly dark, molasses/spiciness. The blend tastes a lot to me like Edgeworth with a faint hint of sweetness--the apple. This is an aromatic in that it has a pleasant smell, but it is not a gooper. I'm sure it would ghost a pipe it if was the only thing smoked in said pipe for, maybe 5 years. But no one should worry about destroying a pipe with this blend ever. I plan on buying much more of this blend. The roomnote and taste are exactly the same. The note is less apple, and more apple cider. Great for autumn...

There are many good brands of tobacco , but when I smoke a pipe, I only smoke John Middleton's Apple flavor tobacco. It's smoothness, aromatic and soothing flavor is the equivalent to classical music to the ears of the Connoisseur . Hamburgers from McDonald's might be o.k. for kids, but if I want some good beef , I go for a sirloin steak.

This is an easy going Burley that has a slight taste of green apple upon the first 1/2 which turns into plain burley for the rest of the bowl. It has an agreeable room note which shouldn't offend anyone also. Packs easy and lights well and keeps lit with minimal effort. I actually really enjoy this blend and have a pipe dedicated to it! A distiction not many drug stores get! The apple flavoring will haunt a pipe and seems to get better if you dedicate said pipe to the tobacco. After running 3-4 pouches through it the pipe will get a nice cidery smell to it. This is a great summertime smoke to enjoy sitting by the pool drinking cold apple cider with it! Highly recommended!

I'd like to play devil's advocate and come forward saying "I love this stuff"! The flavor is less fresh apple and more apple cider. My wife doesn't hate the smell, so that's a plus, and it makes this Kentucky humidity a bit more tolerable. I'd take this ANY day. I got zero nic hit off of this...the only downfall. It won't bite at even the most fervent provocation. All of this coming from the man who is swearing off aromatics...grain of salt, brethren. If anyone absolutely hates this blend, just get my address and I'll pay shipping.

Great smell in pouch and in bowl. THe tobacco burned rather fast but did not cause tongue burn. Their was some nipping from the virginia, but nothing else.
This burned with EXTREMELY small amount of moisture in the pipe. THe moisture that did accumulate was extremely tasty wich is unusual for an aromatic.
The tobacco burned down very well into a blackened state that disentigrated instantly when touched. I ground it into the heel and the sides of the bowl with a matchstick and reserved a small amount of the ash in my palm while cleaning everything out of the heel. It coated the bowl so well it looked like a brand new grabow bowl. Good smell to bowl a few hours after smoking. And the pipe was dry a few hours later. SO i am keeping this.
