Mac Baren Honey & Chocolate
(2.68)
A fine loose cut blend made of a very special kind of cavendish. The long and delicate cavendish process makes this blend soft and smooth with a taste of honey and chocolate.
Notes: Discontinued 2014.

This blend was passed around at our last pipe club meeting. I am an English smoker to begin with, but do every once in a while enjoy an aromatic. This tobacco is absolutely as advertised, Honey and Chocolate it is very intense in flavor and is in my opinion very well balanced. I think it is a bit stronger than I would have blended it, but my wife loves the room note. I was surprised to note that the tobacco was not very wet, but it did still leave some of the typical aromatic goo at the bottom of the pipe. I think a Meerschaum or corn cob is the best way to enjoy the tobacco. I am not sure why I liked this blend as well as I did, on paper I should despise it, but the luxurious flavors were enough for me to go out and buy a tin of this stuff. I do say that it does blend well with a Virgina tobacco. Give this a try blended 50/50 with McClellands Virgina Woods.
