John Patton Storm Front
(3.59)
Two cube cut Burleys combined with cigar leaf. Meaty, sweet, and smokey. This might be John's favorite blend yet!

I'm writing this based on two bowls on a sample that I received from the blender. I've made a point of not reading the other reviews.
I am a fairly long time cigar smoker (15+ years) and relatively new to the pipe (just over a year).
I did not detect anything cigar like about the blend in the pipe.
I did find the blend creamy, relatively smooth, definitely richer than a straight Burley like PA would be. Somewhat sweet as well without being overpowering.
As with most Burley blends, it turned a bit ashy towards the end, which was fine as most of what was left was fairly hard chunks of charcoal dottle.
The blend is well behaved in the pipe, no goop, clean dry smoking.
I have not smoked any other cigar leaf blends. This blend definitely uses it as a condiment, at least to my taste buds... don't be put off by the ingredients if you love Burley but don't like cigars!

This is an amazingly good burley blend! The cigar leaf is barely noticeable, while the burley pumps out that chocolate burley tatse. Mild to medium with no bite. Lights and stays lit. The only draw back to this blend is the price, which will keep me from giving four stars.
