Charles Fairmorn Dark Fired Shag
(3.67)
This is a very dark, virtually black shag cut Virginia tobacco that has a full, deep flavor. The stoving produces a mellow smoke that is easy on the tongue and palate.

I was able to sample this at the weekly pipe club that I have been attending lately. This was from 2006. The shag cut reminded me of Drum cigarette tobacco. I liked it but it was late in the evening and I was only able to have one bowl. Smooth, woodsy with somewhat of a nic hit. Reminds me of dark bird’s eye. Maybe next week I can try some more.

Look, this is okay pipe tobacco. But it's really a top-notch cigarette tobacco. It's actually wasted in a pipe. My friends and I debated the function of this tobacco and the universal consensus is that it is cigarette rolling tobacco. Of course, you could emulate Holmes and call for a pound of this and sit amongst a pile of pillows on the ground with your oily clay pipe. I see no reason why this couldn't be an excellent blending element.
