Hearth & Home Old Tartan

(3.14)
A new interpretation of a blend that was a mainstay in the Albany NY area for more than a half-century. This smooth-smoking mixture uses a variety of cube and rough cut Burleys and a splash of natural Cavendish with just enough Latakia to add a slight smoky spice. Enjoy this taste of the past.
Notes: According to Pipes & Cigars Deer Tongue is no longer used.

Sigh...

I ordered a tin of this on special and from the description was eager to try it, as I like 'anglo-matics'. I like the tin note, and it's really an attractive tobacco.

Loaded up a bowl and lit up, and about a third of the way through the bowl, I began to sense the all-too-familiar feeling of a tobacco that's been sprayed with chemicals. The coating on the roof of my mouth and down the sides of my tongue was very noticeable. I can't recommend a tobacco that has this characteristic, when there are so many excellent others out there.

Darn...
