Schermerhorn Schermerhorn's Flake Mixture

Alas, I found my unicorn of tobaccos! I just got one of the last. known tubs of SFM in existence. 20 year old canister which was last manufactured by Swisher. And I have to say this was a very pleasant and long awaited surprise. Because the tobacco was dry, I put in a Ziploc bag with a slice of cinammon raisin bread. A few hours later and with a false light and relight, I was smoking pure pipe nostalgia. The flavor: citrus with a little spice, slight nuttiness and a hint of floral. This reminds one of Briggs and BRG mixture but somewhat mellower. The room note is reminiscent of sweet, buttery popcorn. Read some of the reviews and if you get your hands on this rarity, don't throw it out. as some reviewers have done. Instead place in a Ziploc bag with a piece of raisin bread and check every few hours. When the leaf becomes slightly moist fill your bowl but not too full or tight. Give a false light, tamper and light again sipping as you go. You won't be dissapointed. So for a old school blend that is honest, straightforward. and relives the glory days of our precious hobby I'll give this four stars.
