First of all, it gives a salty taste which follows you for most of the first 1/3rd of the bowl, then it goes peppery and then bitter... As you go through the bowl and pass the half mark, you still have the saltyness with an acrid bold woody undertone which I can only relate to Burly. It has a Heavy retrohale and I couldn't reverse retrohale _I call when you sip, release and inhale through the nose without inhaling the smoke to your lungs, reverse retrohale_ it without cuffing at first. Nicotine hits you in the last 1/3rd of the bowl, with a little sweetness. And the bitterness, ah the bitterness is killing me right now... Beware... it's Not suitable for the inexperienced pipe smoker at all!

Admittedly, my palette for Kentucky tobaccos is limited, but I did not enjoy Smoky Mountain. The first third of the bowl was nice, exhibiting perfumy fragrance and some sweetness, but as time went on, the flavor transformed into an acrid stink, not unlike car exhaust. There is a subtle vegetal note and bitterness, kind of like green beans if I were to give it a flattering profile. Everything else is fine -- it burns well and stays lit, and the strength is appreciated, but I can't withstand the acrid flavors enough to enjoy it.
