Hearth & Home Cherry
(2.50)
No doubt about it, Cherry is one of the best-selling pipe tobacco flavors, but some (many) are too sweet, bite like a snapping turtle, have a chemical-y odor or are loaded with too much humectant. is cherry, but some are overbearingly sweet or are "bitey". This mellow Cherry blend is part of H&H's Mid-Town Series consists of Burley and Cavendish with an understated note of ripe cherry and is a true any-time smoke. Like all the Mid-Town Series blends, Cherry is made of excellent tobaccos but is a comparative bargain.
Notes: This blend is a match for the old Middleton Cherry Blend.

In the original, the cherry flavor is not strong and you can taste the burley some, more so at the finish when cherry flashes off a little. The cherry taste in the Mid-Town Cherry is a little more obvious, and the burley is a shade less noticeable. The cherry does not burn off at the finish as it does in the original. The original has the same fault it has always had, being bitey when puffed beyond a sipping pace. That is only true of the this version if you go at it like a steam engine trying to outrace Superman. This burns well, fairly cool, and is a smoother smoke with a more pleasant after taste than the original.
I rated the original at one star.
