A master blend of all bright pipe tobacco imported and domestic. Enhanced with a most unusual flavor of imported Irish cream. Delightfully aromatic. The cream of the crop.
The black cavendish offers a little brown sugar. The burley has a light nuttiness, and the Virginia has a light grassiness. The Irish Cream is a little creamy, but lacks depth. It needs to be smoked slowly to prevent some harshness, and may bite a fast puffer. Has very little nicotine. Burns at a reasonable pace with a fairly consistent flavor, though the topping slightly weakens near the finish. Leaves very little moisture in the bowl, needs an average number of relights, and has a decent after taste, and a nice room note. An all day smoke.
A delightfully sweet aro blend with tastes of Irish Cream and "Irish Mist," a swell old grocery and drug store favorite from "olden days." Also detect a bit of chocolate or cocao topping. While you have to sniff a little for Irish Cream aroma upon opening the pouch the flavouring just seems to get better and better and more pronounced with each puff.
So arrestingly mild and pleasing it seems more a morning or before noon rather than late afternoon or evening smoke. Abenacki has captured the essence of another of its spirits' based mixtures with customary elan and "dolce stil nuovo", i.e. sweet style. Happy hunting...
