Looking for another high quality aromatic to add to my rotation, i came upon Trout Stream via a sampler pack. The aroma is indeed of Butterscotch and Caramel, i like that analogy. The blend is black and gold cavendish and lights / burns average. A nutty and toasty flavor mixed with the caramel aroma make this a wonderful morning or all day smoke. This blend will also not offend anyone within smelling distance. For me, i smoked first an ounce, then a half pound and i just received a full pound. For $20.00 a pound this is one of the best values in aromatics i have ever come across. I must try Eric's Old Lodge and Pine Grove next! He's a great blender if Trout Stream is any indication.

This is a good smoke, very tasty and sweet and has a nice roomnote. I will keep a few onces on hand. Its a nice fall tobacco and can be a great all day smoke. Enjoy! MozzMann'06

As a hunter-naturalist enthusiast, the name "Trout Stream" brought an inevitable appeal -- though obviously this isn't the best reason to purchase a tobacco, but: c''est la vie!

I was concerned about the notes about butterscotch, for while I am a fan of caramel, butterscotch I am not, which is one of the things that set me off against Autumn Evening which did have, to my mind, a strong butterscotch flavour.

The tin note for Trout Stream did indeed have it, but fortunately for me, the bowl did not. It was simply a pleasant smoke in the vein of Lane I Q but a bit sweeter.

It's definitely one to sip on slowly though. Go too fast and you'll get that ashy bite, but slowly sipped, mellow flavour. A nice little nic-kick at the very end of the bowl as well.

It wouldn't be a regular part of the rotation for me personally, but between the good marketing of the name and the nice flavour, it would be one to have in the cellar and at the ready.

Trout Stream: Butterscotch Tobacco...mmm

This blend is all about the butterscotch casing and it is quite good. It has just the right amount of sweetness without being cloying. The two cavendish varietals blend with each other—offering a creamy smooth smoke. There is not much tobacco flavor here, but that is fine with how good the casing is. Surprisingly, this blend burns well and not too hot.

I purposely avoided this tobacco just because so many of my pipe smoking friends were talking about it for years, many who I consider "fan boys". Well I guess "curiosity really does kill the cat", so I caved in and purchased a few ounces. When it arrived I hesitantly opened the bag and took a whiff, very pleasing smell, just the right amount of moisture, and a pretty nice ribbon cut. After packing a bowl and lighting it, I instantly got a flavor blast. Smooth, creamy and very tasty. The vanilla is prevalent, as well as the butterscotch everyone speaks of. A good friend recommended a 1Q and BCA mixture to me years ago and this kind of takes me there, but it's much better. The room note is amazing and took me back to my youth when my grandfather would enjoy his pipe. Now, I'm going to go to rehab because I think I might be a "fan boy" now. Gonna purchase a few more ounces to add to my cellar and see what a little time does to it. This is definitely a all day kinda tobacco

This is one of the most flavorful aromatics I've ever smoked. Smooth and mild. Lots of billowing smoke. Smells nice too. I taste butter scotch and maple. Goes great with a cup of Joe first thing in the morning.

Wow. I'm impressed. This is a great aromatic. It's a nice burning smoke of easy packing, loose cut, rich and favorable tobacco. The flavor is divine with a nice butterscotch aroma room note. Easy to pack, smoke and enjoy. One of the things that impressed me is the quality and the ability to stay great and keep my interest through to the bottom of the bowl. It's NOT a dime store tobacco juiced up with butterscotch flavor type of aromatic we see often. The blend is a homerun for the folks at PipesandCigars. Its also a great blend for anytime anywhere. I would purchase this again which is a key factor in my opinion for any pipe blend.

Trout Stream gives you a nice smoke with a slight caramel flavor. Lights easy and only required a few relights. A good smoke and smells delicious in t he jar. I only wish the caramel flavor was more pronounced. Recommended.

Jarred some of this tobacco quite some time ago and kind of forgot about it. Cracked open the jar today to a very nice butterscotch aroma. Nicely scented without the over the top smell you get with some aros. Very smooth, warm, sweet smell that you can't wait to light up. I found it burns smooth and burns clean right to the bottom of the bowl. The nuances of flavoring stay with it from beginning to end. Very nicely done. A light refreshing smoke you could enjoy all day or all night. Easy on the tongue and provides a nice room note for others. Guess I won't be forgetting about this one anytime soon. If your looking for a nice consistent, smooth smoke on the lighter side without the over the top casing effect, give this one try.
