Smoker's Pride Natural Blend

This is an incredibly inexpensive blend that makes a decent corn cob blend. Take it fishing, rake the yard, work on the car, etc. It can have an ashy finish, but what do you want for the money?

For a cheap tobacco this is very pleasant and served nicely as a change from the English blends I tend to smoke. I must recommend that instead of purchasing this and smoking it right away,cellar it for at least a month before dipping into it and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at what this turns into.

Honestly, I don't get any flavor from this at all. Zip. Not really any sweet either. Odor from the bag smells like someone hurled in it. It came quite dry, seems of recent age. It burns, because I noticed the tendril of smoke, and could occasionally see a red glow from my pipe's "maw". I reckoned the opening as a "maw", because clearly my pipe was yawning. It is my opinion, this is a synthetic substance that has miraculously no impact on my environment in the burning state. Velvet is like an atomic explosion of flavor compared to this. There is amazing science involved here evidently, just not the kind that helps mankind.

I have smoked from old tins of mummified, probably dangerous vintage tobaccos, that had been forgotten in the back of grandpa's drawer of clip-on ties. These old crispy parchments had more tobacco taste left than this product.

I really like S.P Black Cavendish, and their Cherry is also pretty good. Their Vanilla is indeed bland, but you can still tell you're smoking something. I've even began to enjoy their Whiskey, if mixed with Bk. Cavendish. Their Natural? I bought 12oz, and I'll probably last me until 2473, unless I find a suitably strong blend partner that needs to be blended 50/0.

Oddly enough, the S.Value Natural is many times better than this.

Smoker's Pride "Classic Blend" is what you get now, and my sample tasted like sour lemongrass and citronella. Literally unable to smoke this "classic Blend" product.

I've tried the Mellow Blend and this, Natural Blend. This has more flavor than the Mellow Blend, but this one burns a bit hotter. Sip it gently and it ain't too bad. Don't know if I'd buy this one again. Let me get through the 12 oz. bag and we'll see. Still for the price, it'll definitely get smoked...

For a time, some of the blends in the Smokers' Pride range were readily available in Mexico City. Regular was perhaps the best of the lot. Slightly dry and stale in flavor, it nevertheless delivered a passable tobacco smokiness (Burley). The added Cavendish (Burley again) makes it, in my opinion, richer than either SWR or PA, but it should be smoked slowly because it can bite. A very simple, undistinguished smoke, good enough to move about when nothing else is available.

Well, its tobacco, and its cheap.

More of a natural cavendish, if such a thing makes sense. It isn't bitey, doesn't have a burley type flavor, isn't really sweet, doesn't really stand out one way or the other.

I got a huge bag of this stuff about a year ago and I've used it in blends of my own devising, and have smoked it on its own now and again. Its another of those no-brainer smokes good for mindless puffing. As others have said, its good in a cob.

A classic two-star. Its not disagreeable, but its pretty mundane.

Well, good for mixing. Cheap. Good in a Cob. That's about it. Burns better than the corner store brands, but tastes less. It's a toss between the two if I'm outta the good stuff.

This blend is about as simple as it gets. No frills, no thrills, just plain old tobacco. The taste and aroma remind me of Sir Walter Raleigh Regular, although I think I like this a little better. It appears to be another predominantly Burley blend. It smokes well and doesn?t offend but it just doesn?t stimulate either. This would be good to use to mix into stronger blends that you want to cut the taste of.
