Years ago I bought several tins of Old Squaw simply because I liked the name. I don't know whether this was the only straight Burley blend in the Bufflehead line - but I think it was. Nutty and light in the flavor department. And man, did this blend burn fast. I gobbled up three back to back bowls in one sitting the first time I opened a tin. I have a brother who, before he quit smoking cigarettes, did the roll your own thing and I gave him a tin of Old Squaw to try. He loved it! I didn't.

OldSquaw is one of those blends that match the catalogue description quite well. The quality is definitely there but that's just part of it. OldSquaw is easy to pack, easy to light and keep lit, burns evenly and pretty dry and cool - with only minimal attention from the smoker, and I really like "cruise control". It's a nice Burley blend to use in smallish "walkin' around" pipes that have somewhat thinner bowl walls and can overheat in a heartbeat. Have smoked several bowls in the rather petite Stanwell "Sixtus" pipes and was easily able to keep them cool enough to hold comfortably. Have also smoked several bowls in a medium-to-largish poker and it performed like a Champ. In fact, it was just fine in 5 or 6 different pipes of assorted sizes. Which brings us to Taste. The taste of OldSquaw is natural, high-quality Burley - and there is a sweetness, just a tad, that is also natural-tasting. I like it. It conjurs up memories of hard cider and the crisp air at late-October trap and skeet shoots in northcentral Ohio. It tastes like the burley I imagine Mark Twain or Aldo Leopold would have smoked. Bufflehead's OldSquaw is a qood blend of good-quality leaf with a good natural taste that will stay enjoyable bowl after bowl. Since it is a bulk offering from Bufflehead it won't break the bank either. And it has a cool name too. All-Around Good Job, Mr. Windsor!!!!
