I just got my can of it today and I love it. I smoked it as hot as I dared and it didn't bite. My pipe cooled down to a comfortable level within a minute. Right out of the can, it was a little moist and was a little difficult to light, but manageable. I'd recommend letting it sit open for a day or loading a pipe pouch with it before you plan to smoke.

Tin note: Raisins, milk chocolate

Room note: Fig, very mild and pleasant. girlfriend doesn't mind it. Looks like I've found an inside smoke!

Taste: Not a lot of taste, but what is present is mild, smooth, sweet, and slightly tangy, with more of the fig taste. Sure beats the other drug store blends I've tried like Sir Walter Raleigh, Sail, and Captain Black. Inhaling it even went smooth. After a re-light, the flavor picked up strength and got a slight spice to it, but retaining the fig.

Overall: I could smoke this all day. Smoke was pretty mild and wispy. Despite its moisture in the can, I haven't needed a pipe cleaner yet and I'm not even using a balsa filter. I'd recommend this to beginning smokers and experienced smokers who can appreciate subtlety in flavor. It's a good morning tobacco and would pair well with a blonde roast of coffee, milk, or sweetened black tea.

Really, not bad for a domestic blend consisting of golden and black cavendish tobaccos. Its' the black cavendish that gives this blend a somewhat unique character. It has to be fire cured leaf because a mild but noticeable degree of smokiness comes through in the aroma. The flavoring to this black leaf is a seemingly mild vanilla (not over the top) and to the blend as a whole what I think, but uncertain is a discrete note of coconut. It's flavor is actually lightly sweet, not sickeningly so. The degree and complexity of aroma gives this blend an incrediable fragrance that was even appreciated by myself who does not normally smoke this type of tobacco. The sweet smoky vanilla scent lingered in my nostrals long after I had finished one or two pipefuls like a vivid olfactory halucination. I would not be suprised like the tin says that even non-smokers would be captivated by the aroma. So captivated in fact that they would patiently wait in front of you, in a trance, waiting to do thy bidding. Captain Black Royal smokers and the like should try this one.

If you like Aromatics and Vanilla, give this four stars. Reminds me of MacBarens' Vanilla Creme. A bit too damp but lights o.k. This is all about the smell though. An indoor smoke if ever there was one. The only drawback is that if you don't like it you own a whole tub!

Been a pipe smoker since the early 1970’s. There was a locally owned pipe & tobacco shop in town until the owner passed away at 97. He had some great blends. My favorite from his shop was Bacchus, an aromatic blend. After he passed away, I searched for a similar blend and White Hall Black Tie was a close match. When desperate, I would get Capitan Black White or 1Q & mix it Lane BCA for similar results.

Smoked many a container of White Hall Black Tie. In fact, my garage workbench has dozens of containers now filled with various screws, bolts, nuts, odd parts from all the projects that I was involved with when I owned rental properties.

Pipe Used: Mainly briar, larger bowl oom Paul freehand type
PurchasedFrom: JR Cigar
Age When Smoked: 70
