Tinder Box Reserve 1928
(3.46)
Tinder Box Reserve 1928 is the first new addition to our tobacco bar in over three years. We went to The McClelland Tobacco Company with our criteria in hand: the tobacco had to be intriguing to the eye, have uniqueness to the nose and be ever so pleasing to the palate. In addition, this is only the second time in history that Tinder Box has introduced a tinned tobacco to our loyal pipe smokers. Because this new blend hearkens our roots, we called upon the touch of a master blender to come up with a blend so unique and so delicious, it is destined to be our top selling tobacco of all time. Tinder Box Reserve 1928 has the panache, the sophistication, the delicacy to satisfy a pipe smoker of refined taste and independent means. It is easy to pack, and has a subtle, natural sweetness. A cool, dry smoke with a light pleasing aroma. The composition of this new tobacco is red Virginia, orange Virginia, Virginia flake, and a touch of burley.

i recieved a small sample of this a few weeks ago to take home and taste. It has a good flavor and an aroma which is not TOO sweetened. This is not what would be known as a "Chick Magnet" tobacco, but a good change.
If you are only into the heavy aromatics like Cpt Black or blue note (Both exellent tobacos, but I like ADVENTURES in pipe smoking), then you may not really like it. This is something different.
Don't smoke it out of your pipes dedicated to aromatics either, since it will mask and ruin the the flavor.
If you want to have an "ADVENTURE in pipe smoking", other than Cpt. Black and try something wiht less artificial sweeteners and casing, but don't want to "Go full English", This is a good one. Come Pay Day, I am going to get me a can.
I would definately say give it a test puff.
