Ole Shenandoah Appalachian Harvest
(3.67)
Ole Shenandoah Appalachian Harvest may well be the most pleasantly aromatic blend you'll ever try. Golden, sweet, Virginias are blended with slowly-steamed black cavendish and topped off with the richest note of raspberry flavor available. The room note is nothing short of astounding, and the flavor is rich without being overly sweet.

The tin note that fills my nostrils upon opening leaves me wondering if I should eat it or smoke it. It is a sweet fruity aroma with raspberry standing out above the rest. The moisture content is nearly perfect. Not too wet, not too dry, and not so overly top-flavored as to be sticky. The cut of the blend is varied and pleasing to the eye; and it packs excellently in the bowl. It lights easily and the fruity note of the tin follows to the palate with that raspberry once again coming out on top. The flavor is sweet without being too sweet and I experience no gurgling in the stem. The blend burns well and evenly, not requiring an aggravating amount of relighting. The ash is fine and dry with a minimal amount of moisture left in the bottom of the bottom of the bowl. As a big fan of aromatic blends I have to rank this one as one of my favorites. Excellent flavor and outstanding room note without a great amount of tongue bite and harshness. What’s not to love? Excellent smoke that can be thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish. Highly recommend!

This is a winner. An aromatic that delivers flavor throughout the smoking experience. With a very pleasant room note and a tin note that actually matches the flavor of the tobacco, I don't know how this isn't a top-rated blend. The tin price is inexpensive, too.

When I opened this tin I could really detect the sweet berry aroma. It packs well, was not overly moist, and burns easy and cool. No tongue bite. Great aroma and I could detect a slight berry flavor. No relights at all for me. Just a great smoke all around.
Definitely one of my new favorites.

Appalachian Harvest is the best of breed for the Ole Shenandoah line, unseating Barrel 76. Wonderful tin note and room note. Burns well with few relights. The casing is not as heavy as Appalachian Berry and allows the tobacco to come through in the smoking experience. The taste is consistent to the bottom of the bowl. A great all day smoke.
