The Country Squire Tobacconist Parson's Blend
(3.56)
Meet Parson's Blend... developed for the parson himself! One of our dear customers, who happens to be an Anglican priest, asked for a blend that his wife would let him smoke indoors and that also would not lead to tongue bite. Parson's Blend is our effort to deliver these characteristics in a mild, aromatic blend that leaves your mouth feeling soft and smooth and fills the room with a delicious, warm note. Customers often say that Parson's Blend's smoke is "thick"; our experience is that it leaves you in the midst of a very pleasant cloud. Delicious and crowd-pleasing!
Notes: Founded by Jim and Gwen Reeves in August of 1970, The Country Squire has been a Mississippi fixture and mainstay for over 40 years. As Mississippi's oldest tobacconist, we feature over 20 unique and interesting house pipe tobacco blends.

My first pipe experience was with Captain Black Original - it wasn't a great experience and I almost gave up trying to enjoy/learn the hobby (nothing against anyone who enjoys it, just not my cup of tea).
Because of the great reviews on this site, I ordered a bag from the Country Squire hoping I would taste the difference in this blend vs the Captain Black.
Boy did I ever...
This stuff is amazing and I could tell right away after the first light that I was in for a treat. Loads of soft smoke, delicious room note, and smooth taste throughout the entire bowl. Zero tongue-bite even for my beginner level knowledge and skill.
While enjoying this blend the other day, a friend came over for a visit. She cannot stand the smell of cigarettes or cigars - they make her gag and feel very nauseated. Her comment walking up to me as I sat on the porch, 'That smells yummy. What is it?'
This is the perfect blend for a beginner and I'm assuming a wonderful experience for everyone else. I'll be ordering more. Highly recommended.

A mild, fruity taste that blends nicely with a nice aroma. Very enjoyable for my wife to be in the presence of as opposed to non-aromatic blends. From her standpoint, it is a pleasurable experience for an evening smoke. From my standpoint, great taste. Not too fruity. Definitely not syrupy. Great blend!

The fruit flavoring in this tobacco is very mild. It is very subtle. It smokes great all the way down. It did not bite either.
