The Virginia is grassy, and bready with a mild tart and tangy citrus plus a little sugar and honey. The black cavendish is creamy, sugary with a touch of vanilla and floralness. The tobaccos are sublimated by the rich nougat topping which replaced the almond topping formerly used. The honey essence is mild. The strength, taste and nic-hit are very mild. Won’t bite or get harsh. Has no rough edges. Burns cool, clean and a tad slow with a very consistent sweet flavor from top to bottom. Requires some relights, and leaves little moisture in the bowl, but no dottle. The very pleasant after taste and room notes are very short lived. An all day smoke.

This is one very different tasting aromatic. Bleeker Street has some sweetness to it, but it is less sweet than the typical aromatic. I find the pouch smell to be that of a more typical aromatic and I don't pick up the nuts or honey in the pouch. I don't find the nut or honey taste in the flavor of the smoke either. Hockey01 IMHO really nails the taste of this tobacco. It tastes a bit like the scent of patchouli. With all that said, Bleeker St. is a very tasty tobacco. For me it will be a nice change of pace smoke. Recommended.

This blend is indeed very similar to Bohemian Mixture. There is vanilla added, making it a bit sweeter, and not as complex. Again, this stuff is more savory than syrupy. It is a far cry from most cased black cavendish aromatics. Another winner from P&W.

i ordered two four oz. bags of tobacco from pipeworks, and they sent me a small sample of bleeker street. the pouch aroma was great, and the taste was mild, but tastey. this is a good all day smoke. i am ordering this with my next tobacco order.
