The golden Virginia is grassy with a touch of citrus. The toasted black cavendish is plain, and barely existent outside of a little sugar. The earthy, woody burleys are slightly nutty sweet, though muted a little. I get a hint of vanilla, too. The hazelnut topping is not strong and mostly flashes off in the last third of the bowl. Has little nicotine. Won't bite. Burns well, too well if you're a fast puffer, and will leave some moisture at the finish. Needs few relights. The after taste is hardly obvious. An all day smoke. It's not an awful blend, but it's boring, suffers too many drawbacks, and doesn't have enough plus marks to recommend it.

I always keep hope that one day I will find another amazing Hazelnut flavored tobacco to rival two long gone greats (Nording Labrador and McClelland's Master Penman), no great strides were made today however.

Inside the pouch was some dry thinly shredded generic weed that was clearly used to serve several Aromatic masters... simply pour on your favorite flavor and sell. The casing smelled fine, wasn't wet nor overly used, but the final product lacked depth. The smoke was mild and unassuming, afraid to deliver any meaningful flavor crystals.

All in all, a generic tobacco without bite that functioned more as a shag for rolling a cigarette.

Hazelnuts! Harkens back to the days of my first dime store pipe, and Halleluiah Brothers pipe tobacco (fictional). Grandpa's 2 bit plug. A Brown Derby beer, if you will. A kind of dim bulb, flickering in an unkempt Chevron station. It's from Lane so you'd think it would taste of some quality, but to me it seems to be synthetic casings and cheep leaf, because 1/2 way down it begins to taste like a Lucky Strike. If you like Hai Karate cologne and shallow flattery blown in your direction, this is the one to fall for. Personally, I'd rather have a strand of fly paper stuck to my Stetson.

Guys, if you're just starting out and can't afford the higher end stuff; do yourself a favor and buy some Capt. Black, Half and Half, or Prince Albert. Something along those lines, or you may never smoke a pipe again. I'm experienced, and I do like a good aromatic on occasion, but for the most part I much prefer good English. You never know unless you try, so I gave this a shot. I'm glad I was given a sample, because the rest went into the briar patch, which no doubt the weeds felt was my attempt at poisoning them.

I wish I had listened to "RebelPipster".

One star is the best I can do for this one.

If you have always longed to smoke coffee sweetener in your pipe, this is for you. Otherwise, learn from my sacrifice in the name of smoking science, and avoid it as you would a tenth creme brulee. If you do smoke it, bring a blowtorch, as this stuff just laughs at a Corona Old Boy's attempts to keep it smoldering.
