As MParker mentioned in his review , I had a similar experience with Prince Albert. I purchased it while on a business trip after I ran out of my usual custom blend. I fully agree with mparkers statement ,Once you try it, unless you plan on smoking Prince Albert from then on in that pipe , just throw the pipe away because it will never smoke right again. I wound up pitching a $125.00 briar bent apple. It left the nastiest glop in the bowl and even after a good cleaning is still wasnt right. If you plan on trying this tobbaco , go to a drug store and buy a $10.00 Dr Garbow pipe. I dont recommend trying this mixture in your $600.00 Tokutomi or your $200.00 Mastro De Paja

When I was a little gnome sitting at my grandpa's knee, he always had a pipe of Prince Albert going. It is one of my fondest childhood memories. When I started smoking a pipe, I just had to try some. I found it to be rather flat and flavorless. It was very dry out of the pouch, although who knows how long it sat at the drugstore. I suppose if I get extremely nostalgic about grandpa, I might smoke this again, but I'd rather spend my two dollars on something else.

I would have to say that sampling Prince Albert was perhaps the most boring and uneventful 10 minutes of my life. This blend is not inexspensive, it is dirt cheap (dirt being the operative word). It has a mild and nutty flavor and burns well but is flat and base. Smoking Prince Albert robbed me of 10 minutes of my life that I can never get back. The only reason I kept the remainder of the pouch is because I threw it left-handed and missed the trash can.

Another golden oldie that I smoked some as a kid. Now, however, it just doesn't do it.
Sour and bitter (somewhat nutty) in the beginning. About 1/2 way down turns to strong burley in taste. Near bottom strong, harsh and wet.
Room aroma almost foul.
The Prince will never reach King.
