In priciple I have been waiting years for Mac Baren to do something like this. My chief complaint about all of their burley based ready rubbed blends has been that they are not sufficiently cased, flavorful, sweet and round enough. They sure missed the mark with this product however. It is a nice base of predominantly burly with some VA. in a ready rubbed broken cake. The level of sweetness is good and rounds out the smoke but the top flavor is odd and unpleasant for my taste. And the top flavor smells and lightly tastes like, well it seems like bubble gum. Why could it not have been more straight forward. I'am getting real picky in my ripe old age of 32 and nothing seems to satisfy like before in the early days when pipe smoking was a grand adventure.
