Tavern Tobacco Co. Summit Hill
(2.75)
Weary travelers passing through Tennessee looked forward to the friendly fire always burning at the Summit Hill Pub. The house specialty, a wonderful chocolate ale, would be perfectly complemented by this house blend with over-notes of chocolate always a delight to the ladies! An exceptional aromatic with a delicate note of chocolate and a hint of cherries. Perfect with a cordial or liqueur.

Another Fine Representation from Tavern Tobacco!! I, also, as Rob At Home, Have been on a quest for a descent tinned aromatic. I believe I've found one. A sweet combination of burly and red Va, shag cut. The stem to leaf ratio was a bit high, but that may be just the particular tin up for review. The burly lended a nice sweet and nutty flavor to this bland that complimented the VERY restrained chocolate and cherry top dressing added. JUST RIGHT!!
I found this smoked best in a small Meerchaum, or medium to small bent briar. When properly packed, "The NY Pipe Club Method" a charring light was rarely if ever needed, and the bowl smoked almost completely to the bottom without needing a re-light. This blend also helps to build cake like a crazed Italian Baker on Christmas Morning!!!! Being Italian myself, I can say that. So There!!! 8-P. 😎
I must add one note of caution however, puff this with restraint. If pushed too hard, it can bite quite a bit, also, keep a close eye on your pack, very easy to pack too tight, on account of the soft burly leaf. otherwise. sitback, relax, and enjoy a fine dry aromatic that won't leave your pipe with a nasty case of bowl funk.
