Union Leader - also in a red tin - has a similar consistency and flavour as Prince Albert and Carter Hall. All are fine or crimp cut white burley with a light sweet maple-line aroma. Strength is mild and one dimensional. I made the mistake of buying the large tin of this, which I never got around to finishing. Possibly a good all dayer for those old timers who were brought up on these blends, but it's efinitely not for me.

I sooo wanted to like this...Not because I dropped $16.00 on the 12oz tin, but because I loved Revelation, was in the historical, OTC, Gimme the piping heritage zone. So when this burned me the first time- I thought "Ya know- I thought it felt dry, I packed loose...What happened?" So I healed....Tried it again- new pipe, 24hr dry out, gravity pack- Burned again... I tried it moist, dry- Tight pack, loose pack, 3 different pipes- different shapes- sizes- you name it. Acidic, nasty biting, crapola. Gave 10 oz away. Try at your own risk- But remember life is too short.

If I recall correctly, I think Vice President Al Gore's mother smoked this in a cob while holding Al as a baby and singing, "Look for the union label..."
No reason to like or trounce this, but I am sure it has its deserved place with some liking this genre.
