I found this one to be very similar to St. Bruno in texture if a little lighter.
Once lit I get some very sutble flavours of caramel which makes for a very pleasant smoke. As has been said, the further down the bowl this gets it starts to turn bitter and ends up being nasty.
It is a real shame because it starts so well.

I used to smoke this regularly in my youth. It has changed and is not the same as it was 24 years ago. It used to have a lovely caramely taste and very sweet aroma. I find it quite harsh now and gives a hot smoke.
