I had always been curious about this blend, but must admit to initially being frightened of the prospect of trying it after I read on the back of the package that it was manufactured by the Sutliff Tobacco Company. My fear was borne of a VERY unpleasant experience with their Mixture No. 79, but that's another story.
What finally inspired me to purchase a package ("Buy 1 pouch Get 1 free") of this blend was a review of it by William Serad that appeared in a back issue of "Pipes and Tobaccos" magazine. Mr. Serad sampled it AND Mixture No. 79 in the same article and yet somehow survived to write about the experience, so I took the plunge.
Wow, was I pleasantly surprised! This is good tobacco. The pouch aroma is mild, dryly bourbony-sweet, and luscious. The component tobaccos are described as coming from "...Europe, Africa, North and South America...," and are Cavendish cut with shorter strands mixed in. The moisture level is ideal, and the tobacco did not require any drying in order to smoke well.
The smoke itself was very full and tasty, and puff as hard as I might I could not get this blend to bite. The room note was pleasant and, interestingly, short-lived. This tobacco burns well to a fine ash with no dottle, provided pipe-cleaners are judiciously used throughout the smoke.
Don't let the Sutliff name on the package scare you, too. They should get a prize for this truly Masterful blend. Highly recommended!

When I lit my first pipeful, I thought i was smoking trash. I found it was coating my tongue with a pasty film. But I persisted with the pouch, and by the time I got half way through, this has become one of my favorite blends. It's got a great tobacco taste with just a hint of flavorings. I don't experience any nicotine kick, maybe its one minor flaw. It doesn't bite and burns through after one light to a nice, white ash for caking. I have received more compliments on the aroma of this tobacco than any other I have ever smoked. Even strangers have come up to me to remark on its nice odor. This is definitely going to be one of my go-to tobaccos. Don't look to this to taste anything like the Dutch Masters cigar.

I received a pouch in the Altadis sampler and was very surprised by how much I enjoyed this. My taste runs more toward English blends and the only other cavendish I've smoked is 1Q (which I enjoy). Dutch Masters Cavendish packs easily and burns well, down to a fine white ash. No dottle. Very little bite and a nice aroma. I don't know that I detected the smell of bourbon (other than in the sniffer at my side)but there is a sweetness apparent. The moisture level was just right; lighting was easy. I smoked my first bowl and enjoyed it so much, I smoked two more in succession. Nicotine strength is low. I felt somewhat guilty that it wasn't one of the more esoteric blends but, hey, this is a tobacco I really liked and will be adding it to my regular rotation. Give it a try if you haven't already.

The best tobacco I ever smoked- rich, essential, beautiful scent, provides deep feeling of pleasure. The taste is strong and dry (in the same meaning in which wine can be dry), the scent is like an insence.

One of the best Drug Store blends ever....One of the blends that got me started many years ago...Sadly it has been discontinued, and once what's out there is gone, there will be no more. Get some while you still can. You won't be sorry.
As someone else said, this one does it's best work in a cob.
I've got four Mason quart jars packed full of this stuff, guess it'll have to last.....
