Uhle's Bishop's Move

I would say you can't go wrong with this blend. Bishop's Move is the perfect name. I play Chess when I can and I always ponder the move of the Bishop far more than most. I've often felt the Bishop can make or brake a good game. This is certainly a blend to smoke for deep thought or strategy planning. But it equally good for forgetting the day, and just enjoying a flavor smoke.

In some ways this makes me think of the fourth of july, the flavors are compelling and complex. Every puff is a burst of flavorful sensation. The room note stimulates them Ol' Factory senses. If I could give this a 20 of 4 I would but a 4 of 4 is all I am allowed. It is said that this smoke is not an all day smoke, but perhaps a once a day smoke. I'm in agreement. Why, well this blend would poison the waters. It is so good that you may never wish to smoke anything else. I like to sample tobac's so I must be careful to not allow this nic rich tobac to much play time. A definite must try.

Yummmy is all I can say. Tastes like blend 232 but tangier with a bit of sweetness. Leaves the mouth craving a second bowl.

I love TURKISH TOBACCO! This is an excellent example of fine blending. Very nutty with pronounced Latakia. The Perique is there but in the background. If you like Connisseur's Turkish Black this is an excellent alternative. Dry, rich, full, and very satisfying. A Balkan delight! 4 of 4 well deserved English Stars.

Uhle's is what this country needs more of. Local tobacconists who conjure up, with their own tobacco, interesting and enjoyable smoking experiences.

That is what you'll find in Uhle's Bishop's Move. This stuff gets you to thinking. It's not the kind of smoke you pack in the pipe and go out and mow the lawn with. This is for the end of the day, kick back and relax smoking (or go ahead and take a day off from work - you have my permission). This mixture packs nice, lights easy and smokes down to the end with the occasional tamping to keep things in place. Half way through the addictive nature of this smoke will kick in. It's one of those smokes you want to smoke till the end - which you hope never comes.

Bishop's Move is a complex smoke. A mix of tangy Virginia, rich Latakia and the famous Uhle's "Turkish Monopoly". The whole thing gets your head going..... For anyone who wants an interesting smoke, with lots of flavors going on you will want to try this. Highly recommended without reservations.

Whats a burley lover like myself doing smoking this stuff?! Well, enjoying it for starters.

Full, smooth, stout and satisfying, all at once, this is. It comes at just the right humidity and loads easily. At the first light I always have that "this is something special" thought run through my mind. The turkish and latakia are at the forefront and as you work your way down the bowl the virginia definitely comes out in a harmonious way. From the first puff to the last it's a great smoke, leaving a dry pipe and a very small amount of grey ash. I couldn't smoke this more than once a day but when I want to reach for something substantial, for those times when smoking a pipe is all I really want to do, this is a truly fine tobacco. Uhles quality once again stands out and I'd recommend this for anyone wanting to try a top notch balkan tobacco.
