I transfered this to an airtight jar from it's non-vacuum (very attractive) 100g tin two years ago, and have been having occasional bowls ever since.
The smell is wonderful, and takes me back to childhood nougat and sweetshops, I can also smell a lot of vanilla. It packs well and lights easily (and stays lit). The taste is very sweet, and for me verges on the cloying. Worst of all I always get tongue bite from this particular aromatic (hence my slow consumption).
It is a nice quality blend for a summers day, and in moderation makes a nice change from my normal English blend favourites. But I would find it hard to smoke this often, or in large quantities.

I've smoked this blend out of several pipes at different moisture levels. The taste is similar to DeLuxe Mixture (I've smoked this blend 6-7 months ago so I might be wrong). It's ok but it is less than I expected from a "special reserve".
