Ole Shenandoah Summer Brandy Berry (Appalachian Berry)
(2.86)
The third entry in the Ole Shenandoah series is Appalachian Berry. The blend is predominantly black cavendish made with premium quality Green River burley. A modicum of bright Virginia is added to make the blend easy to keep lit. It has a robust berry flavor added that gives off an amazing room note, but comes through gently on the palate. Ole Shenandoah Appalachian Berry is easily one of the most pleasant aromatic tobaccos we've ever tried!

There has been a great deal of positive or neutral reviews of this tobacco. But, to me, this is a cheap blend with casing and aroma which may leave a strange taste and may ghost your pipe for a while. While I like aromatic blends for a change, such as Eileen's Dream, Captain Black Copper or Royal or even Sir Walter Raleigh, this one's berry flavor seems too much. As other reviewers say, the berry flavor is very strong and suppresses the taste of tobacco to the point that you seem to smoke dry berries mixed with some light tobacco or the kind. The nicotine amount is low (which is not a bad thing) and it doesn't bite (which is very good), but I didn't feel smoking tobacco! The blend reminds me of smoking (once) some cheap, full of flavor, creamy stuff they sell for waterpipes (hookas). Didn't enjoy it.
