A blend with taste of fruit (cherry maybe), caramel and chocolate, very pleasant, little bit tiny at the beggining of the pipe.

I've smoked this a lot of late - not exactly through choice, though; my local (non-smoking) tobacconist seems to have decided that he doesn't fancy stocking Peterson's Old Dublin (let alone Ashton's Artisan Blend!) and this seemed like the only thing he had on the shelf that could give me something of that fragrent Latakia nose-tickle. It's a pleasant tobacco; it is inoffensive; it's not cheap; I wouldn't feel like buttonholing strangers about it and saying 'You MUST try some of this!', it's not a tobacco I can get too worked up about.
It's O.K (and if this sounds a little like 'damning with faint praise' then I suppose I can live with that).
