Though very low on nicotine, the light floral, grassy, citrusy Virginia works well with the moderately earthy, nutty burley. There’s a vanilla background note from the black cavendish which at times, is sublimated by a mild honey topping. No chance of bite or harshness. Burns at a reasonable pace, gentle and smooth with a very cool, clean consistent flavor. Leaves little moisture in the bowl, and needs an average number of relights. A pleasant all day work and play aromatic with a nice after taste and room note.

This is a nice, mellow burly and cavendish blend with some floral and honey top notes. This blend has cellard for close to a year since I purchased it and had just the right moisture content straight from the can. I'ts well suited for the smoker looking for a mild aro with a pleasant room note. No tongue bite and also a rather neutral nondescript flavor. Very mellow and probably a great choice for a smoker new to the pastime. Sweet smokes gents!

Taste of Spring - a nice, mild mixture, wonderful tin note. A pleasant, but slightly boring smoke, though. Not for me, although I give it a 3. Worth trying if you like honey aromatics, although the honey is very subtle. I prefer Vanilla/Cavendish aromatics with McClelland's CORPS Vanilla Ice being the gold standard in that category.

Leaf: Black Cavendish, Burley, Virginia
Pipe Smoked In: Missouri Meerschaum, and other various briars
Tin Aroma: Honey
Taste: first light was very sweet, but tamed down after a few puffs. tasted of mild sweetness and honey
Room Note: The room note is sweet and pleasant. lightly floral and honey
Thoughts: This came as a sample to Austin Pipe Club from Sutliff. The ready rub was was drier than i expected from the tin scent. It lit easily enough right out of the can. I did get a little gurgle towards the last half of the bowl, but that seems normal for me and aromatics.
Recommend to: Anyone looking for a mild aromatic.
Pipe Used: various sized pipes
Age When Smoked: New

Uniform cigar-brown burly color with a honey-scented tin note. Smoked warm, no tongue bite 'till the dottle. Honey and almonds in the first half, which became more nutty as the bowl progressed. Smoked dry in a meerschaum (to be expected!). Room note, per my GF was "powdery-honey smelling," pleasant to be around indoors. Taste was mild, but with enough body to satisfy. Low nicotine content. Highly recommended for a aromatic-lover.

Description on Tin: Taste of Spring combines a simple, easy to enjoy and steady-burning blend of Virgina, black Cavendish, and Burley with a light honey top note. Tin Aroma: very sweet chemically honey, lavender, lemon. I actually dislike this tin note considerably. Taste: floral note, slight honey Smokability: doesnt need much drying out of the tin. Room Note: The roomnote is nicer than the smell of the tin. Thoughts: The taste is very less. Recommend to: aromatic smokers looking for a milder smoke - or who like seasonal blends.

I got this with some other Sutliff tobaccos this past spring and really did not like it much.Made of Burely and Cavendish I think.The top note smells kinda like wilted weeds and well it didn't do it for me.One of the few tobaccos I actually threw out. I really do not like to give bad reviews but I have to be honest.
