Wilke Pipe Tobacco Surbrug's Best Make
(3.31)
One of the oldest Wilke recipes. Virginia and burleys are mixed with a non-aromatic black cavendish tobacco and topped with a generous amount of superior latakia creating a traditional medium strength English blend. A rich mellow blend in the true British tradition.

Disclaimer, I have only had two bowls of this and that was enough for me. Not saying it is bad quality but it just was too sweet for me. The jar note was exceptionally sweet and as stated smokes sweet as well. The description on this site says no flavoring added but several of the reviews says that it has a licorice note and no argument here. It is also classified as American due to the addition of Burley but for sake of argument if you like a really sweet smoking English give this one a try but not up my alley. Though it says no flavoring I am listing this as mild.

Another Pipeworks & Wilke trial pack which I was unable to finish because of a non-tobacco additive. The thing smells wonderful but destroys my tongue and taste buds. I realize that some smokers love this kind of thing, so I?ll give it 2 stars.
