Sutliff Tobacco Company Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend
(2.84)
A pleasing aromatic with a nutty sweet burley, gold cavendish, and flavored black cavendish taste. These tobaccos are combined with fruity plum and wine notes, along with a slight flavor push from a hint of Latakia for added sweetness and body. A harmonious blend that burns cool and slowly for full enjoyment.
Notes: Created in 1946, the blending was done under the personal supervision of Edward G. Robinson himself.

I cannot possibly add anything to those rich description of this blend except for one thing - although I find the taste rich and enticing, the smoking experience is one of harshness. But this might have been due to the dryness of the sample I have used.

I received a sample of this in my October TInSociety Box.
EGR is a blend I had not tried in the past but was on my list to get someday.
The bag/tin note was fruity. It is an easy to pack ribbon cut. It is easy to light and I get a fruit (plumish?) taste at the beginning and the end of the bowl. In the middle it seemed to be pretty ho-hum.
Not bad, but not something I'll buy again.

I bought a tin of EGR hoping to find a light aromatic to add to the rotation. When I opened the tin I smelled the light plum others have mentioned and I was eager to dive in to a bowl. For the first few puffs I did get the plum topping, but after 5 minutes or so the topping dissipated and the tobacco turned into nothingness. The base tobacco was indiscernible to my palette and I was left with a bowl of meh. I tried several more bowls and was searching for the elusive flavors that have been described by others. On several bowls, I was able to taste a very light dose of Latakia, but had to strain to find it. I got no tongue bite and the tobacco smoked cool throughout, but i see no reason to revisit the blend in the future.
