Edward's Jamaica
(2.25)
A very light Cavendish but with a rich flavor and aroma. An excellent "change of pace" smoke from a heavier blend. The blending of select light tobaccos gives Jamaica a gentle quality. It's easy to inhale, soft and gentle, but full of great flavor.

I still have some of this in my pipe cabinet. I bought one ounce over four years ago and still haven't smoked it all. With so many other good tobaccos in there, this just doesn't get my attention. It's not bad, really. In fact it was the best thing to be found in a cigar shop with a lousy pipe tobacco selection. I know that's quite a recommendation, eh?
On the plus side, it loads, packs and lights easily, and after all that time in a zip baggie, is not completely crisp. (chuckle) I have one bowl left, and I shall leave it there for emergency use.

I love when people find an Edwards Blend to try. In the 60's - 80's, Edwards blends are all I smoked. This is one of the oldies but goodies.
This is mostly a string cut virginia blend, but may have a spot of burley in it. It is mild, and does not have a lot of flavor. But what flavor there is, is sweet. It also has rare deer tongue (an herb) for a little body, but you don't taste that herb much with the sweet virginia and very light essence added. It does taste somewhat like tea. The essences can mostly be appreciated in the great room aroma.
It burns steady and tends to the drab side. I preferred Honey Cavendish to this, which had to be puffed slower but was real sweet. Jaimaca is a dry, steady burning, mild blend. Not rich, but tame. Need I say more. Good enough to try. I remember it fondly.
