“Moderation in all things, especially moderation.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
I agree with Zone Smoke. This blend has an overabundance of deer tongue. It is center stage and in the wings, and it never lets up. That’s all I could taste. Where’s the burley? And I found this cube cut blend difficult to keep lit. Perhaps I got the ‘bottom of the barrel’ where much of the deer tongue settled. Not only will this blend ghost a pipe, it will ghost your taste buds for a good, long while. But if you like blends with deer tongue, look elsewhere: C&D Crooner uses deer tongue judiciously as do many of the Peretti burley blends. Other John Patton blends with no deer tongue are much better, e.g., Storm Front & Moe’s Confetti.
A cigarette is to be smoked. A cigar is to be enjoyed. A pipe is to be savored.
