Super Value Natural Cavendish
(1.94)
Super Value Natural Cavendish is a cool-burning, gentle blend of tobaccos with minimal added flavoring for a mildly sweet and enjoyable all day smoke. It also is an incredibly good blending tobacco that will tone down an overly sweet Aromatic or for doctor up strong English blends.
Notes: Dream Castle/Super Value pipe tobaccos are manufactured by Sutliff Tobacco Company.

Bought this to use primarily as a blender. Smoked some by itself to test it. This is not bad at all. It has a pleasant but unobtrusive room note and flavor. It burns nice and mild with no tongue bite. It lights very well. It leaves no moisture or goop in the bottom of the bowl and burns to a fine ash that cleans up very easily. It can tone down a heavy blend or make a hot one burn cooler. This will make a nice all day tobacco if you want mild and mellow. If you want a lot of flavor or Latikia or Perique then this is not what you want at all. I am a burley smoker out and out. I've tried lots of burley's and burley blends. This one is very nice and well mannered as it's a Cavendish made from burley. Even in the house you are not going to have a strong aroma! I see a lot of reviews that talk about the quality of Super Value and the moisture in it. Stop and think about what you are giving verses the big names. No this is not Lane or Mac Baren but at these prices I don't expect it to be. It is exactly what I expect a nice pleasant smoke that you can use on its own or to tone down the flavor or burn of other blends with out masking the flavor. I keep several different Super Value blends on hand all the time. This will make a nice smoke for spring and summer by itself or year round with my personal blend that I make and consume as often as is possible. Try the small pouch and see what you think? It is not a Virginia Cavendish so don't expect the same flavor and burn.

This was the first tobacco I smoked in a pipe years ago and it will probably be the last. I never found it to bite (didn't know what tounge bite was until I tried Capt. Black) and it doesn't have a cloying flavor. It tastes like sweet tobacco with a hint of vanilla maybe? The finish to me is more grassy like a good burley will finish. Whatever, it is certainly availible everywhere here and at a price of $2.00 a pouch it is very afordable. Not a contemplative smoke, but if you suck on your pipe all day every day you can do a lot worse.

I bought a 12 oz. bag of this in North Carolina years ago for blending, packed as much as I could tightly in a pint Mason jar, used the remaining, and then forgot agout the jar. I was satisfied with its blenting properties at the time. It's good for toning down a too sweet aromatic or a too heady Balkan or English.
Recently I found the jar, 25 years later. What hat been a tolerable blending tobacco 25 years ago has become a superb blending tobacco over time. It has little effect on whatever tobacco it's being blending with, only takes the edge off if need be. And, after 25 years, now makes a very pleasant smoke all on its own.
