Perhaps I was sent the wrong tobacco, because my experience of this C&D Sweet English is that it's an absolutely appalling tobacco. It seems to be a rather spicey English blend that has had some vanilla added in the background. Problem is: the spiciness of the basic blend is so powerful that it makes a complete mockery of the word 'sweet'. This stuff is certainly not sweet. Hot, yes. Spicey, yes. Sweet, no. A loathesome tobacco that had a horrible taste, excessive heat and spiciness, and no hint of anything sweet. In fact my experience was so bad that I threw away my 2oz sample after two pipefuls. Quite possibly I was sent the wrong stuff by my supplier, because I usually hold C&D tobaccos in high regard.

C&D does great work I smoke quiet a few of their blends. However this is the worst blend I have ever smoked that didn't come from a cardboard box at a drug store. It's not sweet and barely detect any Latakia in the blend. Room note is fair, the taste is hard to describe, I guess bad is the best I can say. I smoke English blends and this is a blend of its own. Burns hot and a strong bite. To each his own and this gets high reviews but I don't like it at all.
