Drew Estate Heirloom Cherry
(2.31)
We could've called it Grandmas Cherry Pie or something clever, but well let the tobacco do the talking on this one. Mild, Aromatic with a wonderful cherry flavor that lasts throughout your bowl. Never bites.
Notes: 2013 IPCPR release.

I had hoped that this cherry blend would be a dellight. This burley blend was ruined by a very poor cherry topping. This blend cannot be recommended.

This was supposed to be my first cherry blend but it was not that good. I was expecting a black cherry, or something of the sort. What I got was a cherry flavoring akin to those watered down supermarket popsicles mom used to buy, that would stay in the freezer until they got freezer burn. I shouldn't be working this hard to get the taste of cherry out of a "cherry" blend.

I found this blend disappointing. Opened the tin and was greeted with a strong cherry smell. Unfortunately, the smell did not translate to the smoke. No real flavor. Not much to say at all about the smoking experience. It stayed lit, but just didn't taste like much of anything. I will put it away and revisit in the future, but right now, I cannot recommend this tobacco.
