Emerson Southern Forged Kilkenny
(4.00)
Kilkenny is a pure Virginia on steroids! There are six different Virginias blended with a mix of Red Virginia and Bright Virginia. Yet with all of the organic, natural sweetness from the Virginias there is no bite, just a smooth slightly sweet creamy taste.
Notes: ESF never includes sweetening agents unless they are specifically mentioned as an integral part of the blend or as an option; propylene glycol is not used as a carrier for flavoring agents. The goal at ESF is to provide a custom alternative with consistent, repeatable performance, to the discerning pipe enthusiast. Pressed if requested. We try to create blends that captivate your attention, take time to unravel, and take you on a journey. Custom blend requests are welcome!

Kilkenny is a delicious blend of six different Virginias blended with a mix of Red Virginia and Bright Virginia. It's nice to be sure there are no casings or toppings and no prop glycol. The taste is of hay and grass and a natural sweetness. It's an easy smoke to love and burns nicely.
My tin (ESF sends their blends in a small mason jar) came as a pressed puck, but it comes apart easily and required virtually no dry time.
Kilkenny is as good if not better than Opening Night, Royal Yacht, MacBaren's Virginia No. 1, and Daughter's & Ryan's Windsail.
Excellent blend from Jim Steffey.
