Uhle's Black Stoker

I HATE UHLE'S!!! Every time I go to that store I end up buying new pipe tobacco. They are such wonderful people that work there. This time at the behest of Jeff and Tammara I tried Black Stoker. If you like sweet aromatics you will love this one. It is actually vanilla based but there are a few other secrets in the blend that can give it a chocolatey or some such nougat taste. Very dry and very sweet. If you like P&W's Bleeker Street or Rich's WOZ this is for you. Reminiscent of the old Bengal Mixture a true stand out amongst aromatics. Please give it a whirl. It will be worth you $4.50. 4 of 4 aromatic stars.

I picked some of this up from a local store. I was pleasntly suprised by it. the chocolate flavor is not overwhelming or barely noticable, it is just right. I am defenitly going to get this again, and explore more blends by Uhles.

I happen to be fortunate enough to live in Wisconsin so Uhle's blends are in great supply. I have really come to like this blend more and more as I smoke it. The room note is excellent and the pouch aroma is strong and sweet. I can't really say enough good things about this blend. I keep coming back to it. Just a really good and relaxing smoke anytime of day.

4/17/2015 - Without trying it seems that I ordered this blend almost one year to the day last April, bizarre. As I had mentioned last year it seems much dryer than in the past and had asked the gentleman on the phone if they had restrained on the toppings (in a good way). He responded with " I assure you that we do not cut corners on our aromatics).. Oops I think I offended him but that's truly what sets Uhle's apart, they take extreme pride in their blends and it shows. Just as tasty as ever but comes at a much more smoke able moisture level now 🙂 Keep it packed very loose!! Stoker prefers a larger bowl and a loose pack!

4/09/2014 - This is the blend that ten years ago made me a confirmed pipe smoker. This is still a daily smoke for me. I usually smoke 3 to 5 bowls a day of Black Stoker (its that good) The German chocolate cake flavor is just delicious! I just ordered more after finishing several pounds I had stashed, well geez ten years ago!! The new batch is much dryer than what I had before coming from Uhles. I used to be able to smell Black Stoker through the two bags and the box, not anymore but its much more smokable right away now so that's a plus. Is it as great as it was? O yes and my favorite aromatic.

6/12/2004 - I love rum cased blends. This one has an irresistable chocolate taste with a sweet tip of the nose rum aroma. I could smell this blend through Uhle's double sealed bag. Tastes great like eating a Chocolate cake while drinking a large rum and coke. Black cavendish with some brown strands here and there. This will make any man a hero in his own home, and the only blend i've had that really tastes like real Hershey's chocolate. Mmmm Yum!!
