Pouch appearance of thick, crinkled chunks of mostly brown tobaccos, with very little black cavendish or Latakia.

Pre-lit aroma of mostly burley, with a beautiful nougat and slight evaporated bourbon note. It smells wonderful!

Due to the large cut of this tobacco, initial lighting can take a few tries due to the voids in the bowl. I learned to pack this one more firm than I tend to.

The first half of the smoke I get mostly burley forward flavors with nougat and a slight alcohol topping. Undertones of graham cracker, semi-sweet vanilla, and a touch of sour/musty Perique. It's faint on the draw, but it can be detected on the aftertaste. Some spice notes, I do have a difficult time detecting any Latakia, and the Kentucky must be non-existent. This blend produces clouds of smoke, which produce a nice room note. I mostly smoked this outdoors, and a few times in the truck.

Bourbon Street does require some attention, and will require a few relights, more than average. No hints at biting, but always puff slow. This can turn a bit rough and ashy if puffed with too much vigor. I think 6-12 months of age might do this blend well, I believe this may be very young tobacco, as its not as balanced as it could be.

Paired well with black coffee in the morning, and a glass of High West A Midwinters Night Dram
Pipe Used: several
