Another aromatic that smells delicious in the jar. The flavors I get is vanilla, sugar, and nougat. A nice smoke, but like Trout Stream I wish the flavors were more pronounced. Recommended.

I kinda like it. You have to be in the mood for this one to be good. I like light aromatics and this one is in the light to medium range. The room note is excellent, even smoke haters loved this one.
I must say however this one tastes and smells better when smoked in a cob. I tried it in a Savinelli and it was not as pleasant of a smoke. I find it that most aromatics tend to smoke a bit better in a cob, and I like English blends in a briar. But thats just me. I have a few pounds of this on hand when I need to please non-smokers.
For those that say this bites... in my short experience as a pipe smoker I have found that almost 70% of the tobaccos I have tried will bite if smoked straight out of a newly opened tin, or a fresh batch of bulk. I have learned my lesson with tongue bite, so I jar the tobacco and let it mellow for a month before I smoke it. Mostly aromatics bite me, not so much the English blends.

The only thing I don't like about this blend is it burns hot and wet. I am sure if I let it dry in the pouch for a while it would take care of those problems. It tastes great, and smells great. The last half of the bowl gets a little ashy but not too bad. First thing I noticed when I opened the bag was smell of Burley tobacco, and if you like burley as a filler, that isn't a bad thing. I may have made it a bit more tobacco-ey and cut down on some of the casings. Other than that, I like this and reccomend it.

At first I didn't think much of this blend; the pouch aroma was very very nice but i thought it was kind of bland. It wasn't so aversive so I kept on smoking it and after a while it grew on me.
This tobacco is really smooth, it is mild but it isn't bland anymore, I can taste a hint of chocolate and vanilla and the room note is just like the pouch smell.
I think this is a good blend that, no matter how fast you smoke it, it will not bite. Lighting the pipe is usually a one match job and it stays lit throughout the bowl. It does not get goopy and it isn't overwhelmingly sweet. A nice simple smoke to keep non-smoking visitors quiet.
