Feb 28, 2007 Strong Mild Full Pleasant to Tolerable
I have to say highly recommend. A classic Virginia/Perique with a soft sweetness I really like. Packs easy, lights easy. One of the first tobaccoes I have smoke where I didn't have to figure it out. Just crumbled, packed, lit and enjoyed down to the bowl. Somehow the consistancy of Night Train matches my packing style. (that and shortly afterwards I was furiously relighting Barbary Coast).

C&D were kind enough to give me a sample of Night Train in my shipment a while back and I've finally finished it off (having saved it only for special occassions). I used it sparingly for another reason as well: the nicotine in this one packs a punch. I tend to inhale so for me it packs a serious punch. Hence never too often.

I will be getting more soon.

After trying Bayou Night and loving it so much, I just had to try Night Train. This is another great tobacco creation from C&D. The natural sweetness of the Virginias really comes true, and the burley gives the blend a nice nutty flavor. The perique is toned down in this blend compared to Bayou Night, but sill adds alot of flavor and charactor to the tobacco. IMOP, it almost tastes like an aromatic and has a very plesant room note. This blend makes a great all day smoke. Highly recommended!

A wonderful Va/Per blend - too bad it is cheapened by the name. this is much more than a cheap high like it's name sake. The mellow, nutty undertones work as a foundation and the Per flies and soars above the ground like a bird in flight. smoke enough of it and you will see the bird!!! hahahaha - careful a punch is hidden in the bottom of the bowl. *** Hey Talon - Milky Way IS a better name for this. Very good description. It also combines with CD's other Star references, Orion and Constellation.

An excellent all day smoke for the reformed cigarette smoker. Little palate fatigue for a blend this well. Not one dimentional, but also not overly complex. A cool smoke with just a hint of bite. It burns well, rub it out for a quick smoke, or break off a chunk and shove it in your pipe for a long smoke.

A spicy and tangy citrus on first light. Some occasional lemon-grass with a tart/floral retro. Flavors and strength build and build. Definitely not mild. Perfect last smoke of the day. ☆☆1/2

Tin note of stewed sour fruit, slightly tart, and Rasin. Tobacco is a brown Krumble Kake with a tiny amount of tan and dark brow. It breaks apart and rubs out fairly easy. It's not moist enough to need drying. Burn is moderate with few relights. The strength is medium and nic is medium. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium to full and mostly consistent, with notes of mild lemon, sweet grass, dry earth, mild ripe fruit, toasted bread, bitter nuts, very peppery spices, tangy raisin, mildly floral and a very peppery retro. Perique is leading with support from burley. Virginias are kind of doing their own thing while along for the ride. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is great.

The description prepares you for an experience that never comes. Its aroma can get quite offensive out of the tin, but the smoke is more pleasantly flavoured. Still nothing remarkable. This train has run out of steam 🙁

I gotta echo Tripjoker. WOW. This IS what i'm talkin about. Love this. Nice strength. Nice taste. I loaded my best cob and it was perfect. Can't say enough about C&D. They are the best blenders in the world. Anyone who loves strong tobacco is gonna love this.
